Job summary

STRUCTURAL TECHNOLOGIES is seeking an early-career Structural Engineer to join our Salt Lake City office. In-office position with project-related field work and travel, contributing across investigation, design, and construction support.

You will work on site assessments, develop repair and strengthening designs, and collaborate with senior engineers to deliver constructible, durable solutions for industrial and power-generation facilities.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in civil or structural engineering and experience performing structural engineering work.
• For unlicensed candidates, completion of the Fundamentals of Engineering exam is required.
• Sound understanding of structural behavior, load paths, analysis, and concrete and steel engineering fundamentals.
• Ability to use relevant analysis/design software, such as SAP2000, RISA, or STAAD; experience with AutoCAD, Revit, or other drafting/BIM software; and ability to read construction drawings.
• Clear communication, careful documentation, organization, and willingness to ask questions, accept feedback, and collaborate.
• Ability to travel and work in the field locally and outside the Salt Lake City area, meet access requirements for assigned secure facilities, and work safely in industrial and other challenging environments.

Responsibilities

• Investigate existing conditions. Review records, assist with investigation planning and testing, and document deterioration, distress, dimensions, and site constraints. Help evaluate causes and develop solutions to repair, restore, or modify existing structures.
• Develop repair and strengthening designs. Perform assigned analyses and calculations, evaluate options, and prepare or coordinate drawings, specifications, and reports under senior engineering guidance. Consider structural performance, durability, constructability, and facility constraints.
• Support construction. Help verify field conditions, prepare responses to technical questions and requests for information, and assist with submittals and construction observations. Raise discrepancies and changed conditions with the responsible engineer and project team.
• Support clients and project development. Join client discussions, site walks, and solution development under senior/team guidance. Assist with scope descriptions, proposals, quantities, and engineering effort estimates alongside Sales, Estimating, and Operations.
• Deliver checked, well-documented work. Clarify requirements before starting; document assumptions, methods, limitations, and conclusions; check your own work; and resolve review comments. Follow applicable standards and obtain required documented review and approval before deliverables are released.
• Stay engaged with the team. Communicate progress and next steps, respond promptly to project needs, participate in relevant office meetings, and raise safety concerns, competing priorities, and scope, schedule, or budget issues early.
