Job Description

We are seeking a Lead Structural Engineer to join our team in the design and development of energy infrastructure across the nation. This company is a multidiscipline engineering firm servicing the energy sector including traditional oil and gas infrastructure and the implementation of new carbon capture initiatives. This position requires a high degree of proficiency and competency in performing structural steel design, structural concrete design and load development in accordance with ASCE 7 for industrial type structures and foundations. The successful candidates will be required to work in a team environment, coordinating with mechanical, electrical and instrumentation engineering disciplines and leading the civil structural design aspects of small to large energy infrastructure projects. We are seeking an engineer who can run a project independently, and knows when to seek out other disciplines and align them with best practices for doing structural supports. In this role you will not necessarily be responsible for leading a team, more so delegating tasks to junior engineers and mentor/field their questions.

We are a company committed to creating diverse and inclusive environments where people can bring their full, authentic selves to work every day. We are an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer that believes everyone matters. Qualified candidates will receive consideration for employment regardless of their race, color, ethnicity, religion, sex (including pregnancy), sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, marital status, national origin, ancestry, genetic factors, age, disability, protected veteran status, military or uniformed service member status, or any other status or characteristic protected by applicable laws, regulations, and ordinances.
