Full Job Posting

Your Role

  • As a Structural Project Engineer in our Construction Engineering Practice, you will contribute to structural design, steel connection design, and temporary stability analysis. Your work will include designing steel connections ranging from simple shear connections to complex multi-member nodes with intricate load paths. You will analyze alternate load paths in partially erected structures and design temporary bracing systems to ensure stability during steel erection. You will also support delegated design efforts for contractor-led scopes. If you’re ready to elevate your impact and grow into future project leadership, this is the place to do it.
  • What You’ll Do
  • Lead structural analysis and design, with emphasis on detailing steel connections, erection stability, and contractor temporary supports.
  • Perform temporary stability analyses of partially erected structures and design bracing systems to ensure safe construction.
  • Lead the planning, coordination, and execution of construction engineering, Advanced Project Delivery (APD) and steel connection design projects.
  • Coordinate design and detail work with engineering staff, Tekla modelers, as well as other design professionals.
  • Manage project deliverables and coordinate engineers, modelers, and project staff in preparing drawings, specifications, and other contract documents.
  • Communicate with clients, contractors, and fabricators to understand project requirements and support successful project execution.
  • You will contribute to the design of temporary works, steel connections, and construction systems that bring complex structures to life.
  • You’ll work on real-world engineering challenges where sequencing, constructability, and field constraints matter as much as analysis.
  • Support project planning, staffing coordination, and execution strategies to meet project goals and delivery schedules.
  • What You’ll Bring
  • Bachelor’s degree in Civil or Structural Engineering; Master’s degree preferred.
  • 4+ years of experience delivering complex technical design projects with a minimum of 2 years of experience in the design of steel connections.
  • Professional Engineer (PE) and/or Structural Engineer (SE) licensure, or the ability to obtain a license.
  • Working knowledge of current industry software such as SAP2000, ETABS, RAM, Risa3-D, PCA Software, Revit, and AutoCAD, with familiarity in Tekla Structures preferred.
  • Compensation
  • The rate for this position generally is $95,000 - $115,000 annually. This range is a good faith estimate provided pursuant to the Colorado Equal Pay for Equal Work Act and Equal Pay Transparency Rules. It is based on what a successful Colorado applicant might be paid and assumes that the successful candidate will be in Colorado or perform the position from Colorado. Similar positions located outside of Colorado will not necessarily receive the same compensation. Actual pay rates may vary from the range, as permitted by Colorado Equal Pay Transparency Law. Compensation offers will be based on various factors, including operational needs, individual education, qualifications and experience, work location and comparison to employee already in the role, as well as other considerations permitted by law. A potential new employee’s pay history will not be used in compensation decisions.
