Structural Engineer

Structural Engineer This role offers an experienced Structural Engineer the opportunity to take full technical ownership of temporary structure designs, including scaffolds, sidewalk bridges, hoists, shoring systems, and other construction-related temporary works. You will serve as the licensed Professional Engineer responsible for designing, reviewing, and sealing engineered drawings and calculations, while collaborating closely with internal teams, clients, and project stakeholders. The position is ideal for a seasoned engineer already working in the temporary works or construction engineering niche who is ready to stamp and take responsibility for designs from day one and contribute to innovative solutions on high-profile building projects. Responsibilities Design, review, and seal engineered drawings and calculations for temporary structures such as scaffold systems, sidewalk bridges and fencing, construction hoists and personnel elevators, shoring systems, and other temporary works and construction engineering projects. Assume professional responsibility for stamped designs from day one, ensuring compliance with applicable codes, regulations, and engineering standards. Collaborate with and receive general administrative direction from a governing board or regional council, aligning engineering activities with organizational goals. Discuss all projects in detail with branch teams and customers, providing clear, timely responses to technical inquiries and project questions. Initiate and maintain extensive contact with key engineers, officials, and representatives of other organizations and companies to support project execution and technical coordination. Routinely interact with organizational leaders, clients, customers, officials, contractors, and other stakeholders to communicate technical concepts and project status. Set priorities across multiple projects and reconcile directions from competing interests to ensure timely and accurate delivery of engineering work. Develop new techniques and improved processes, materials, or products related to temporary works and access engineering, contributing to continuous improvement. Stay informed on emerging methods, technologies, and developments relevant to temporary structures and construction engineering, and proactively recommend new practices or program adjustments. Apply advanced engineering knowledge and expertise gained through progressive experience to resolve complex issues and unique project circumstances. Assist in preparing proposals for professional engineering services, helping to secure funding and support for new projects and programs. Oversee the technical, legal, and financial aspects of engineering programs as they relate to temporary structures and access systems. Determine program objectives and requirements, and translate them into clear engineering standards, guidelines, and design criteria. Develop and maintain standards and guidelines for temporary structure design, analysis, documentation, and quality control. Communicate engineering concepts and design intent effectively to drafters, designers, and other engineers, ensuring accurate translation into drawings and models. Check and approve drawings at all project levels, verifying technical accuracy, constructability, and compliance with standards and codes. Strategically assign projects within the engineering team, leveraging individual strengths and areas of expertise to optimize project outcomes. Perform and check complex structural calculations, including nodal and finite element analyses, to validate design safety and performance. Create and approve engineering calculators and tools used for scaffold design and other temporary works to standardize and streamline design processes. Review and obtain all necessary information for scaffold design projects, including site conditions, loading requirements, and project constraints. Utilize advanced CAD and 3D modeling skills to draft and review projects of intermediate and higher complexity using Revit and related tools. Apply full knowledge of relevant regulations and codes to ensure all temporary structures meet or exceed required standards. Conduct site inspections as needed to verify field conditions, assess existing installations, and support safe and compliant implementation of designs. Essential Skills Direct, hands‑on experience designing, reviewing, and sealing engineered drawings and calculations for temporary structures and access engineering projects. Demonstrated experience with temporary structures, including scaffold design, sidewalk bridges and fencing, construction hoists and personnel elevators, shoring systems, temporary works engineering, or construction engineering. Comfort and readiness to stamp and take full responsibility for temporary structure designs from the first day in the role. Bachelor’s degree in engineering from an accredited program; master’s degree or equivalent advanced education. Ability to perform and check complex structural calculations, including nodal and finite element analysis. Proficiency in creating and approving engineering calculators and tools used for scaffold and temporary works design. Strong proficiency with advanced CAD and 3D modeling tools, including Revit, for drafting projects of intermediate complexity or higher. Full working knowledge of applicable regulations, codes, and standards governing structural and temporary works engineering. Ability to review and gather all necessary information for scaffold and temporary structure design projects. Capability to conduct site inspections to verify conditions and support safe implementation of designs. Proven ability to communicate complex engineering concepts clearly to drafters, designers, engineers, and non-technical stakeholders. Experience setting priorities, managing multiple projects, and reconciling directions from competing interests. Job Type & Location This is a Permanent position based out of Morristown, NJ.
