Responsibilities include validating FEM analyses, earthquake/wind engineering tasks, and ensuring alignment with design standards while mentoring a team of

Qualifications

• Ph.D., postdoctoral experience, or equivalent advanced technical experience in Civil Engineering, Structural Engineering, Geotechnical Engineering, or a closely related discipline.
• Strong programming experience in Python, C/C++, Julia, Fortran, or MATLAB/Octave, with proficiency in Linux environments.
• Hands-on expertise in at least one major area: structural analysis, FEA, earthquake engineering, geotechnical modeling, or hydraulic/hydrological modeling.
• Strong understanding of engineering principles, numerical methods, simulation workflows, and model validation.
• Working knowledge of engineering design standards such as ASCE 7, ACI, AISC, Eurocodes, or IS codes.

Responsibilities

• Review engineering tasks end to end, including problem statements, structural and geotechnical models, load cases, simulation data, computational environments, reference solutions, and automated tests.
• Validate tasks involving structural analysis, finite-element methods (FEA), earthquake and wind engineering, structural dynamics, geotechnical modeling, hydraulics, hydrology, transportation, and infrastructure systems.
• Ensure tasks require genuine multi-step engineering reasoning and reflect realistic civil and structural engineering workflows.
• Verify engineering accuracy across units, equilibrium, boundary conditions, load combinations, design codes, numerical stability, convergence, and safety factors.
• Validate computational models, solvers, dependencies, and simulation results for reproducibility and technical correctness.
• Review automated graders to ensure they evaluate meaningful engineering outputs such as forces, deflections, drifts, settlements, factors of safety, flow rates, and structural performance.
• Identify technical errors, unrealistic assumptions, incorrect tolerances, and opportunities to bypass engineering analysis.
• Provide clear, actionable feedback to task developers and track revisions through completion.
• Mentor and support technical trainers, allocate work, monitor quality and productivity, and resolve technical blockers.
• Maintain quality standards, technical documentation, and best practices across engineering task development.
