Purpose

The Structural Engineer (“Engineer”) plays a key role in delivering structural engineering design and analysis for wireless communication and telecommunications infrastructure projects. This position is responsible for ensuring the structural integrity and compliance of both new and existing building and non-building structures, as well as non-structural components. The role supports the full project lifecycle - from concept and design through deployment and quality assurance - by collaborating closely with clients, contractors, project design teams, and regulatory authorities. The Engineer will prepare detailed reports, calculations, and technical analyses, while also providing quality control oversight of work performed by other engineers. This role contributes directly to the safety, reliability, and innovation of tower and telecommunications network projects, supporting the company’s mission to connect communities through innovative infrastructure solutions.

Functions

• Structural Analysis & Design
  • Perform comprehensive structural and mount analysis and design for new and existing building structures, non-building structures (e.g., towers, monopoles), and non-structural equipment, including anchorage and foundation elements.
  • Develop and design modifications for tower reinforcements, extensions, and foundations to ensure compliance with structural standards and client specifications.
  • Evaluate engineering alternatives and recommend solutions that balance safety, performance, and cost-effectiveness.
• Technical Documentation and Reporting
  • Prepare detailed engineering reports, calculations, and documentation that effectively communicate design assumptions, methods, and results.
  • Conduct and/or review Quality Assurance–Quality Control (QA/QC) checks on structural analyses, drawings, and engineering deliverables to ensure technical accuracy and compliance with applicable codes.
  • Support construction administration activities, including review of shop drawings, RFIs, and technical submittals.
• Collaboration and Stakeholder Coordination
  • Collaborate with A&E Project Managers, Drafters, Senior Engineers, Clients, Contractors, Building Officials, and other external consultants to align structural design requirements and project objectives.
  • Serve as a technical resource for internal teams and external stakeholders, providing timely responses to structure-related inquiries.
  • Coordinate with building officials and jurisdiction authorities to demonstrate code compliance and secure necessary permits and approvals.
• Field Operations and Site Support
  • Conduct site visits and field assessments to verify existing conditions and support design feasibility.
  • Prepare detailed field reports documenting observations, measurements, and engineering recommendations.
• Compliance, Safety, and Continuous Improvement
  • Ensure all work adheres to federal, state, local, and company safety standards, policies, and engineering codes of practice.
  • Identify opportunities to improve design efficiency, standardization, and process quality within the engineering team.
  • Support mentoring and knowledge-sharing efforts to foster technical development within the team.
• Additional Duties

Responsibilities and tasks may evolve in response to organizational needs. The incumbent may be required to take on additional projects or duties assigned to support business priorities and team objectives.
