• Prepare and review structural calculations and engineering documentation.
• Develop and review structural drawings for accuracy and compliance with design requirements.
• Ensure structural designs comply with applicable U.S. building codes and engineering standards.
• Evaluate structural conditions and provide practical engineering solutions.
• Identify design issues, inconsistencies, and potential constructability concerns.
• Coordinate structural requirements with architectural, mechanical, electrical, and other engineering disciplines.

Project Coordination

• Support structural engineering projects from design through construction.
• Review RFIs, submittals, technical documentation, and project-related engineering information.
• Coordinate with architects, engineers, contractors, project managers, and other project stakeholders.
• Participate in project coordination and technical meetings with U.S.-based teams.
• Communicate design revisions and engineering requirements clearly to internal and external teams.
• Maintain organized project documentation and engineering records.
• Manage assigned engineering deliverables and project deadlines.
• Support QA/QC reviews of structural calculations, drawings, and technical documentation.
• Assist in resolving technical issues that arise during design and construction.
• Support and mentor junior engineers or designers when appropriate.
