Your Role
- If you’re a structural engineer who wants bigger challenges, more technical depth, and a clear runway toward becoming a recognized expert, Thornton Tomasetti is the place where that trajectory happens.

- Engage in internal collaboration initiatives with sustainability, resilience, forensics, renewal, protective design, and more.
- Build the leadership quality of seeing beyond tasks to how structural decisions shape outcomes, innovation, and long-term client value.
- Mentor earlier-career engineers, enhancing your ability to influence and elevate a team.
- What You’ll Bring
- Bachelor’s degree in Civil, Structural, or Architectural Engineering; Master’s degree preferred.
- Professional Engineer (PE) and/or Structural Engineer (SE) licensure.
- 6+ years of structural engineering experience, ideally within a consulting environment.
- Strong background in analytical modeling, detailing, and advanced engineering concepts (steel, concrete, seismic, tall buildings, specialty structures, etc.).
- Ability to independently develop engineering approaches, solve novel challenges, and demonstrate the curiosity and initiative to grow into a technical leader.
