Structural Designer II

A bit about us:

Founded nearly 60 years ago and based in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, with offices and facilities throughout the United States and internationally, we design and manufacture capital equipment that helps industrial customers control air pollution and meet environmental compliance requirements. Our engineered solutions include combustion and post-combustion emissions-control systems used in power generation, petrochemical processing, refining, and other heavy industrial applications. Our teams develop equipment such as hot exhaust and flue gas ducting, SCR systems, dampers, expansion joints, and related structural assemblies designed for high-temperature and demanding operating environments.

Why join us?

• Remote Flexibility: Remote candidates will be considered, although candidates in the Dallas-Fort Worth metro are preferred
• Minimal Travel: Estimated travel of less than 5%
• Meaningful Engineering Work: Design equipment that helps industrial customers reduce emissions and meet environmental regulations
• Career Development: Work alongside experienced designers and engineers on complex heavy industrial projects
• Project Variety: Support custom equipment for power generation, combustion, petrochemical, and process-industry applications
• Global Organization: Join an established environmental technology company with operations and customers throughout the world

Job Details

Key Responsibilities and Duties

• Create detailed 3D CAD models, fabrication drawings, and material take-offs for heavy industrial equipment, equipment skids, and ducting systems.
• Design hot exhaust and flue gas ducting, including casings, transitions, structural supports, plate components, and related assemblies.
• Develop structural layouts using typical industrial structural members and properly configured beam-to-column and equipment-support connections.
• Produce drawings for customer review, material procurement, shop fabrication, and equipment installation.
• Incorporate thermal expansion, operating temperature, mechanical loading, and fabrication requirements into designs.
• Design and coordinate equipment skids and supporting structural assemblies for industrial emissions-control equipment.
• Coordinate ducting and equipment interfaces with SCR reactors, baghouses, electrostatic precipitators, dampers, expansion joints, and related systems.
• Review engineering and project inputs for completeness and identify missing information, conflicts, or design discrepancies.
• Perform geometric and material calculations involving dimensions, areas, volumes, weights, angles, and material quantities.
• Prepare accurate bills of materials and material take-offs for purchasing and fabrication.
• Revise drawings based on engineering reviews, customer comments, fabrication feedback, and project changes.
• Coordinate with Engineering, Project Management, Sales, manufacturing teams, and outside stakeholders throughout project execution.
• Interpret P&IDs and incorporate process requirements into equipment and ducting layouts.
• Apply knowledge of industrial welding practices, structural connections, and fabrication limitations when developing designs.
• Follow document-control requirements for drawing releases, revisions, file management, and project records.
• Support continuous improvements to design standards, templates, drawing quality, and execution efficiency.

Qualifications Needed

• Associate degree in Computer-Aided Design, Drafting, Engineering Technology, Mechanical Design, or a related discipline.
• Minimum 3-5 years of industrial structural or mechanical design experience.
• Strong hands-on proficiency with Autodesk Inventor for 3D modeling and detailed drawing development.
• Experience designing heavy industrial equipment, rather than primarily commercial construction or light-industrial components.
• Strong background designing with structural steel members, including an understanding of beam-to-column connections, equipment supports, frames, and load-bearing assemblies.
• Experience designing equipment skids, structural frames, or packaged industrial equipment.
• Experience producing fabrication-ready drawings for industrial ductwork, structural platework, or process equipment.
• Ability to create accurate material take-offs and bills of materials from 3D models and fabrication drawings.
• Understanding of industrial welding practices, fabrication processes, and shop constraints.
• Ability to perform geometric and material calculations involving dimensions, weights, areas, volumes, and angles.
• Experience interpreting engineering drawings, specifications, and P&IDs.
• Exposure to elevated-temperature equipment, thermal expansion, hot exhaust ducting, or flue gas systems is strongly preferred.
• Familiarity with SCR systems, baghouses, electrostatic precipitators, or other pollution-control equipment is helpful but not required.
• Proficiency with document control, drawing revisions, and technical file-management procedures.
• Valid driver's license and ability to travel less than 5%.
• No professional license or additional certification is required.
