Job description

Innovation dies when it’s trapped in a spreadsheet.

At ClearCalcs, we free engineers to spend more time thinking and less time doing. Our cloud structural design calculators already power over 50,000 projects a year worldwide — and we’re just getting started.

If you’re a structural engineer passionate about solving real-world problems, building tools engineers love, and shaping the future of design, we want you on our team.

Your Impact

• Ship calculators fast — foundations, retaining walls, reinforced concrete, steel, and timber — all through our no-code calculator builder.
• Empower others — translate complex Canadian and US standards into intuitive, best-practice calculators.
• Amplify impact — release tools used by thousands, iterate based on direct customer feedback.
• Own QA — write tests, review outputs, and hunt edge cases to guarantee trust.
• Take radical ownership — act as product / tech lead, partnering closely with product, development, and customer success to sharpen every launch.
• Find a better way — create new workflows, tools, and AI helpers that cut design cycles from hours to seconds.

What You’ll Bring

5+ years of structural design experience

Depth in Canadian standards like CSA A23.3 and A23.1, breadth across S16, O86, and NBCC.

Familiarity with US standards (ACI 318, AISC 360, NDS) is highly valued.

Strong exposure to connection design or HSS design is a major advantage.

Spreadsheet wizardry (Excel, Mathcad); Python or JS curiosity a plus.

Excellent written and verbal communication skills with sharp attention to detail.

A proactive, ownership-driven mindset — you love continuous learning.

Leadership or project management experience is highly regarded.

Equity upside in a profitable, fast-growing SaaS business.

Generous benefits — healthcare coverage, RRSP matching, and substantial leave allocations.

Engineer-grade equipment, annual L&D budget, and a shipping-focused culture.

Hybrid work — collaborate remotely and co-work regularly with our Toronto-based team (no formal office yet).

Global impact — your tools will support tens of thousands of designs annually.

How to Apply

Answer two quick screening questions to help us move fast.

Shortlisted candidates will complete a quick async video or Loom task (max 3 min).

Design smarter, build faster. Unlock clear workflows and empower your team with accurate calcs that scale your business.
