Job description

Company Overview

VB+E Pte Ltd is a civil and structural engineering consultancy that offers a collaborative, forward-looking environment for Engineers and BIM/digital specialists.

Job Summary

We are looking for a Senior Civil and Structural Design Engineer with design experience and a passion for AI, digital technologies, and future-ready ways of working.

This is an opportunity for an engineer who wants to remain hands-on in design while progressively develop a leadership role - shaping how projects are designed, delivered, and improved through AI-driven workflows and grow towards a future leadership position in a collaborative, flat-hierarchy environment.

You will have the freedom to explore ideas, introduce new approaches, and turn technology into practical engineering solutions. Your leadership will be built through technical capability, initiative, collaboration, and the ability to create efficient ways of working, not simply through seniority or hierarchy.

What You’ll Do

• Lead and perform structural design and analysis for building and infrastructure projects. Explore, develop, and implement AI-driven workflows across structural design, analysis, documentation, coordination and adopt digital tools to improve engineering processes and reduce repetitive work.
• Develop safe, practical, and efficient engineering solutions in accordance with relevant codes and standards.
• Review and improve digital design deliverables to achieve high standards of quality and efficiency. Experiment with AI and emerging technologies and turn them into practical engineering applications.
• Develop leadership through technical expertise, innovation, mentoring, and ownership. Influence how the team approaches design, automation, and digital delivery.
• Grow towards a future technical or digital leadership position in a collaborative, flat-hierarchy environment.
• Identify opportunities to transform conventional design workflows into smarter, data-driven, and technology-enabled processes during preparation and review of design calculations, technical specifications, reports, and project deliverables.
• Lead design reviews, feasibility studies, site inspections, and resolution of technical challenges.
• Work collaboratively with clients, consultants, and project teams to deliver high-quality engineering outcomes.
• Share knowledge, mentor colleagues, and contribute to the development of future digital engineering capabilities.

What You’ll Bring

• Degree in Civil/Structural Engineering or equivalent qualification recognized by PEB.
• Minimum 6 years of structural design experience.
• Strong structural design and analysis capability with knowledge of Singapore and regional design codes.
• Experience delivering building or infrastructure projects from design through to implementation.
• Strong problem-solving, communication, planning, and coordination skills.
• A hands-on, curious, and future-focused mindset with the confidence to challenge conventional approaches.
• Interest in using AI, automation, computational design, or digital engineering to improve the design process.

Preferred Competencies

• Practical experience using AI-assisted workflows in digital engineering, design, analysis, documentation, or project delivery.
• Experience in composite concrete-and-steel or precast structural design.
• Demonstrated ability to lead initiatives and turn new ideas into practical outcomes.
• Interest in developing into a technical, digital, or engineering leadership role.

If you see automation not as a replacement for engineering, but as a powerful tool to help engineers learn, be ahead of his time, deliver fast and quality work differently-we want to hear from you.
