Responsibilities
- Lead structural validation efforts, applying and adapting existing solutions while ensuring compliance with US building codes (IBC, ASCE 7, AISI) and project-specific requirements.
- Develop and maintain coordinated Revit models and fabrication-ready documentation, including permit sets, shop drawings, and digital production outputs.
- Oversee the transfer of engineering data between BIM (Revit) and MCAD (SolidWorks) environments to ensure accuracy and alignment with as-built conditions.
- Identify and resolve design gaps and cross-disciplinary clashes to ensure a coordinated, production-ready release.
- Provide hands-on, real-time engineering support during first builds, proactively identifying issues, driving resolution, and closing gaps between design intent and field/fabrication realities.
- Collaborate with BIM and MCAD teams to develop robust digital assets, project templates, and standardized structural methodologies to improve factory throughput.
- Provide regular updates to team leads and key stakeholders on task progress, deliverables, and any technical constraints impacting the manufacturing process.
- Own the development and release of production-ready structural models, drawings, and data packages, ensuring they are fully coordinated, manufacturable, and ready for fabrication and construction.
- Operate effectively in a fast-paced environment with evolving inputs, balancing speed and precision to deliver high-quality production outcomes.
Requirements
- Strong structural analysis skills with a focus on Cold-Formed Steel (CFS) or light-gauge steel framing.
- Advanced proficiency in Autodesk Revit.
- Deep understanding of US structural codes (e.g., IBC, ASCE 7, AISI S100) and the ability to prepare calculation packages.
- Strong understanding of structural coordination with Architectural and MEP systems.
- Strong verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to explain complex engineering concepts to both office-based teams and factory floor personnel.
- A methodical approach to engineering with a high degree of organization and attention to detail.
Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in Civil or Structural Engineering.
- Minimum of 5-8 years of relevant experience in structural design, coordination, and integration.
Skills
- Professional Engineer (PE) license or demonstrated progress toward licensure.
- Experience in off-site construction, prefabrication, or panelized/modular housing environments.
- Familiarity with automated fabrication equipment and CNC workflows.
- Familiarity with SolidWorks and PDM systems to support hardware/system integration.
- Understanding of design-for-manufacture and assembly (DFMA) principles, with experience optimizing designs for scalable production.
- Expertise in Navisworks or other advanced clash detection and coordination tools.
