$62,998 - $90,586Hybrid

About The Position

Looking for an Entry Level Structural Engineer to join our team in Summer 2027. This position will offer you the ability to directly apply your knowledge of materials, structural analysis, structural steel design, and reinforced concrete design. As a member of an engineering and design team, you will work on a wide range of oil and gas facilities. Project responsibilities will include creating calculations, document designs, and specifications. Additionally, you will be conducting structural analyses, which include loading conditions such as wind, seismic, blast, and pressurization. Under the direction of the Structural Lead, you will be responsible for guiding designers in structural engineering design efforts, including providing guidance with the coordination of detailed design phases for all aspects of structural engineering work. You will work on challenging assignments that include investigating, troubleshooting, and solving a wide variety of structural engineering issues. Develop integrated structural designs and perform supporting calculations for the planned work. Prepare technical specifications for structural materials. Perform reviews of existing facilities to propose upgrades and replacements, and present findings and recommendations to clients and peers. There is the potential for you to travel to client and vendor offices for design reviews and to plant site locations for construction coordination and field verification of designs. This position is based on a hybrid work schedule and will require in-office work 3 days per week.
