Job summary

SSOE in Hillsboro, OR is seeking a Structural Engineer to design and engineer tool installation support systems for semiconductor fabs. You will prepare calculations, 3D models, drawings, and review packages, coordinating with project managers and cross-discipline teams to ensure constructability and code compliance.

The role emphasizes QA/QC, field condition evaluation, and design changes tracking, with mentorship of junior engineers.

Qualifications

• ABET-accredited degree in Civil or Structural Engineering.
• Active PE license in AZ or eligibility by reciprocity within six months.
• Minimum 5+ years in structural engineering, preferably for semiconductor/cleanroom projects.
• Proficiency in Revit, BIM coordination, and Autodesk Construction Cloud.
• Strong skills in structural analysis, calculations, and construction documentation.

Responsibilities

• Perform structural analysis and design for tool installation support systems, including equipment frames, platforms, anchors, racks, lateral supports, and associated steel or concrete modifications within semiconductor fab environments.
• Develop design calculations, assumptions, load path evaluations, and basis-of-design documentation for tool hookup and facility modification scopes, ensuring constructability and code compliance.
• Prepare and review structural drawings, 3D models, details, and connection concepts for cleanroom, subfab, and utility-adjacent installations that support process equipment integration.
• Coordinate closely with project managers, discipline leads, and cross-discipline project teams to align structural scope, sequencing, and delivery requirements.
• Participate in design reviews, model coordination meetings, and issue-resolution sessions through pre-design, design development, IFC release, and construction administration.
• Support clash and interface resolution between structural elements and adjacent systems such as piping, cable tray, equipment anchors, access clearances, and maintenance pathways.
• Evaluate field conditions, verify existing infrastructure where required, and incorporate site walk findings into design revisions, repair recommendations, and installation strategies.
• Apply QA/QC procedures to calculations, drawings, and models, ensuring accuracy, consistency, and alignment with internal standards, client requirements, and applicable codes.
• Track design changes and support change control by documenting impacts to scope, cost, constructability, and schedule, especially when revisions affect tool installation sequencing or safety.
• Mentor junior engineers and drafters by reviewing work, sharing best practices, and helping strengthen technical judgment, documentation quality, and coordination habits.
