Job description

Senior Structural Engineering Project Manager – Capital Projects

At Welltower, we’re transforming how the world thinks about senior living and wellness-focused real estate. Our culture is fast-paced, collaborative, and endlessly ambitious—guided by our mantra: The only easy day was yesterday.

We’re looking for bold, independent thinkers who thrive on challenge, embrace complexity, and are driven to deliver long-term value. Every team member is empowered to think like an owner, innovate fearlessly, and lead from where they stand.

About The Role

Welltower is seeking a Senior Structural Engineering Project Manager to lead the assessment, remediation, and execution of structural improvement projects across our senior housing and wellness portfolio. This role will serve as a key technical resource for evaluating and resolving issues such as structural settlement, façade deterioration, balcony deficiencies, and other system failures impacting the integrity of our buildings.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the planning and oversight of structural capital projects, including balcony and cantilevered element repair or replacement, structural settlement investigation and foundation remediation, structural façade repairs, reinforcement of roof structures or framing modifications, and structural elements impacted by long-term water intrusion or improper detailing.
• Perform site evaluations and collaborate with internal teams to diagnose underlying structural issues and develop practical, code-compliant repair strategies.
• Manage external structural and geotechnical engineering firms—scoping investigations, reviewing findings, and directing design solutions.
• Serve as a technical reviewer for PCA reports and other due diligence materials—assessing structural risks and informing acquisition decisions.
• Coordinate and manage the resolution of post-acquisition structural issues in newly constructed buildings—working constructively with developers, general contractors, and consultants to plan and implement corrections.
• Collaborate with Capital Planning and Redevelopment teams to ensure structural repairs align with broader asset strategies and ongoing projects.
• Provide oversight through design, bidding, and construction phases—ensuring consistency with repair scope, schedule, and quality expectations.
• Act as an escalation resource for internal stakeholders and property teams when structural deficiencies are identified or when third-party guidance is needed.
• Maintain strong documentation practices to support internal reporting, risk assessment, and future planning.

Minimum Requirements

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Civil or Structural Engineering.
• Professional Engineer (PE) license required.
• 10+ years of experience in structural investigation, design, and/or remediation work across building types, including wood, steel, and concrete structures.
• Experience with façade structural issues such as masonry cracking, brick failure, spalling, displacement, or delamination.
• Working knowledge of geotechnical conditions and how they relate to structural performance and building settlement.
• Experience managing third-party engineers and coordinating construction activities in active, occupied buildings.
• Strong communication skills with the ability to distill technical findings for cross-functional teams.
• Proven ability to support acquisitions and manage constructive engagement with developers and builders to resolve post-close deficiencies.

What We Offer

• Competitive Base Salary + Annual Bonus
• Generous Paid Time Off and Holidays
• Employee Stock Purchase Program – purchase shares at a 15% discount
• Employer-matching 401(k) Program + Profit Sharing Program
• Student Debt Program – we’ll contribute up to $10,000 towards your student loans!
