Structural Engineer

Specializing in high-tech facility design, SSOE provides design and engineering services for a wide variety of clients. Our diversity and breadth of highly skilled and knowledgeable professionals work across industries and integrate into a cross-disciplinary team that provides better understanding of total client systems than the traditional arrangement of specialized, siloed disciplines. A key differentiator of our team is our ability to conceptualize, plan, and detail all aspects of design, as well as coordination with various in-house disciplines within the organization to collaborate, optimize, and improve work and staff sharing by participating in multi-discipline strategy sessions. We use cutting-edge techniques and software to bring industry leading technology and creative solutions to our clients from day one.

We are seeking a Structural Engineer to join our dynamic team. In this role, you will engage in the designing, developing, and implementing of cutting-edge structural systems for high-tech or industrial facilities with a primary emphasis on steel and strut configurations. As a Structural Engineer at SSOE, you will have a foundation in structural principles, structural analysis & calculations, and a proficiency with Revit and AutoCAD. This position is a hybrid position, requiring occasional onsite work.

Conduct detailed structural analysis, calculations, and design for steel and strut-based systems used in high-tech or industrial facilities. Develop innovative solutions to optimize structural integrity and performance.
• Conduct detailed load analysis to determine the forces (dead loads, live loads, seismic loads, etc.) acting on the structure. Consider factors such as occupancy, equipment, and environmental conditions.
• Design and optimize steel structures, including trusses, frames, and other load-bearing elements, with a strong emphasis on efficiency, durability, and safety.
• Evaluate stability and safety of the existing systems using structural engineering principles. Ensure that the structure can withstand applied loads without failure. Analyze existing structures for new loads and provide recommendations for strengthening where required.
• Ensure compliance with industry standards, codes, and regulations while producing comprehensive technical documentation, reports, and drawings.
• Utilize AutoCAD and Revit software proficiently for modeling, drafting, and detailing structural designs. Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to integrate structural designs seamlessly into larger facility plans.
• Apply established design techniques and exercises discernment in adapting and modifying design concepts as needed. Uphold quality control by adhering to company and team design and CAD standards.
• Will work with Sr. Engineers, Project Managers, and other stakeholders on specific assigned objectives, complex features, and aid in deriving possible solutions to unusual problems.
• Foster collaboration, communication, strategy, and support within your team, multidisciplinary groups (Electrical, Mechanical, Process/Chemical, Architectural, etc.), and inter-company teams to optimize efficiency, quality, and resource allocation.
• Perform field verifications / site walks to identify, verify, resolve, and incorporate solutions into design packages. May troubleshoot design problems in the field during construction

• A Bachelor's in Civil or Structural Engineering from an ABET accredited institution.
• Fundamental knowledge of structural analysis techniques and principles.
• Strong understanding of building codes, regulations, and industry standards.
• Knowledge and/or experience designing structures to resist dynamic loads such as wind and seismic loads.
• Experience with structural analysis software such as RISA or STAAD.
• Experience with Revit and AutoCAD is required.
• Experience performing field verifications and site walks to identify, verify, resolve, and incorporate solutions into design packages. Ability to troubleshoot design problems in the field.
• Current Professional Engineer (PE) and Structural Engineer (SE) licensure is a plus.
• Salary Range: $68,000 - $100,000/year depending on location, education, experience, and any certifications that are directly related to the position.
• Benefits include health, dental, and vision insurance, life insurance, 401K retirement savings plan (with company matching), opportunities for professional development and training, PTO, & paid holidays.

We look forward to having you join our team.
