Structural Engineer
for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to parse the posting.
The posting includes:
- Role Definition (intro paragraph) describing role: detail oriented, open to learning, structural design background, working towards SE/PE license, perform calculations, assist with production of structural drawings in Revit, write evaluations and reports, participate in job site observations. Ability to design structural steel, concrete, foundations for ag and industrial projects under Sr. Structural Engineer using hand calculations and design software.
- Then there is a block of values: PROTECT PEOPLE, BUILD RELATIONSHIPS, FOCUS ON END GOALS, DRIVE INNOVATION. Those seem like company values, not role specifics. Should we include? They are not under a heading; they are part of posting. Might be considered "About the role" content? Possibly we can include them in About the role paragraph.
- Then "TOP 5 ROLE RESPONSIBILITES:" with list of responsibilities (each with subpoints). We need to extract responsibilities as list items under - . Probably each bullet is a responsibility heading (like "PROVIDES GUIDANCE FOR PRELIMINARY STRUCTURAL DESIGNS", "UTILIZES HAND CALCULATIONS AND SOFTWARE TO EVALUATE STRUCTURAL DESIGNS AND SIZE COMPONENTS", "WORKS CLOSELY WITH OTHER DISCIPLINES TO MINIMIZE OBSTRUCTIONS", "DIRECTS AND CHECKS THE DETAILING OF STRUCTURES BY DESIGNERS AND DRAFTERS", "ANALYZES EXISTING STRUCTURES TO ACCOMMODATE CHANGES IN LOADING").
Each has subpoints; we can include them as nested list? The instruction: Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Could flatten each subpoint as separate
- . Simpler: produce a flat list of responsibilities (including subpoints). But we need to preserve all substantive information; we can embed subpoints as separate list items.
- Then "EDUCATION AND QUALIFICATIONS" block: includes preferred Masters, BS, passed FE, willing to work towards PE/SE, good oral/written communication, comfortable presenting, completed courses on structural analysis and structural steel design, courses on reinforced concrete design or foundation design a plus, experience using Revit, 3D software, RISA, MS Office beneficial, travel up to 25% or as needed.
- Then "PHYSICAL DEMANDS": a long list of physical requirements. This could be considered under Requirements or Qualifications? Probably under Requirements (physical demands). Could be a separate section? Not in allowed headings list; we have only those headings. Could put under Requirements or Qualifications. Probably Requirements.
- Then visa sponsorship not available, EEO statement, drug-free workplace, background checks, benefits link.
We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. So we should remove EEO statement, visa sponsorship not available? That's maybe not boilerplate but a specific condition; but it's about visa sponsorship not available. Might be considered relevant? It's a condition; maybe keep as part of Requirements? Not sure. The instruction: remove EEO/equal-opportunity boilerplate. The EEO statement is boilerplate; remove. Also "Benefits and additional Company Information are located in the career section of our website." That's a pointer to benefits; we have no actual benefits listed, so we should not create a Benefits section because no specific benefits stated. So we omit Benefits, Pay, Schedule sections.
We need to include sections only when posting has real, specific content. So we can have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (including education, qualifications, physical demands, visa sponsorship maybe). Skills maybe we can extract from responsibilities? But we have no explicit Skills section; we could combine skills into Requirements or Qualifications. The allowed headings include Skills, but we should only include if there is specific content. There's no explicit skills list besides maybe "good oral and written communication", "comfortable presenting", "experience using Revit, 3D software, RISA, MS Office". Those could be skills. Could create a Skills section with those. But we also have education and qualifications separate. Might be better to have Qualifications (education, licensure) and Skills (software, communication). Let's see.
We have:
- Education: Masters preferred, BS in certain fields, passed FE, willing to work towards PE/SE.
- Qualifications: good oral/written communication, comfortable presenting, completed courses on structural analysis and structural steel design, courses on reinforced concrete design or foundation design a plus.
- Experience: using Revit, 3D software (Navisworks/Recap), RISA structural engineering design software, Microsoft Office software is beneficial.
- Travel up to 25% or as needed.
- Physical demands: list.
- Visa sponsorship not available.
We could create sections:
About the role: intro paragraph (role definition) plus maybe the values? But values are not role-specific; maybe we can incorporate them into About the role as a paragraph about company values? Might be okay.
Responsibilities: list of the 5 top responsibilities with subpoints.
Qualifications: education and licensure requirements.
Skills: software, communication, presentation, courses.
Physical demands: maybe under Requirements? But we don't have a heading for Physical demands; we could put under Requirements as a list.
But the instruction: Use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can use those headings. We need to decide which sections to include based on content.
We have content for About the role (intro). Responsibilities (yes). Qualifications (education/licensure). Skills (software, communication, courses). Requirements maybe we could combine physical demands and travel and visa sponsorship? But we already have Qualifications and Skills; maybe Requirements is for physical demands, travel, etc. However we might avoid duplication. Let's see if we can fit all into Qualifications and Skills and About the role and Responsibilities. Physical demands could be under Requirements (makes sense). Travel up to 25% could be under Requirements as well. Visa sponsorship not available maybe under Requirements as a note.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills.
We must not include Benefits, Pay, Schedule because no specific content.
Now we need to format.
About the role: a
containing the role definition paragraph(s). Possibly also include the values? The values are more like company core values; could be included as part of About the role but might be considered boilerplate? They are specific to the company but not role. I'd include them as a separate paragraph maybe but still part of About the role. However the instruction: remove duplicated lines, cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. The values are not boilerplate; they are specific to the company's culture. Could keep.
Thus About the role
includes: "An Structural Engineer must be detail oriented, open to learning, and have a structural design background. They must be working towards their SE or PE license. They will perform calculations, assist with the production of structural drawings in Revit, write evaluations and reports, and participate in job site observations. A Structural Engineer will have the ability to accurately and efficiently design structural steel, concrete, and foundations for ag and industrial projects under the direction of a Sr. Structural Engineer using hand calculations and a variety of design software." Then maybe another
for values? But we can combine.
Better to keep one
for About the role; if we need multiple paragraphs, we can have multiple
elements.
Responsibilities: we need a
- list. We'll extract each responsibility heading and its subpoints as separate
- . Let's list them:
1. PROVIDES GUIDANCE FOR PRELIMINARY STRUCTURAL DESIGNS
- Consider the safety of Keen Project Solutions construction personnel, the customer, operators, subcontractors, and the general public in project design per OSHA, MSHA, IBC, IFC, NFPA 101, or other applicable regulatory requirements for all scopes of work.
- Research and ensure compliance with applicable federal, state, and municipal codes, permits, and standards relying upon proper expertise and resources internally and externally.
- Work closely with internal and external project partners, engineers, and other professionals to develop project technical parameters and scope.
- Integrate new technology or environmentally friendly practices into existing processes.
- Consider safety, manufacturability, constructability, potential failures, customer usage, functionality, and efficiency during the design process.
2. UTILIZES HAND CALCULATIONS AND SOFTWARE TO EVALUATE STRUCTURAL DESIGNS AND SIZE COMPONENTS
- Performs code compliant hand calculations to verify member capacities, connection forces, and load paths for steel, concrete, and miscellaneous support structures.
- Uses structural analysis software (e.g., RISA, STAAD, RAM, or equivalent) to model systems, evaluate load combinations, and confirm design assumptions.
- Sizes beams, columns, bracing, and support components based on dead, live, wind, seismic, and equipment loads, ensuring alignment with project criteria.
- Validates software outputs through independent engineering judgment, cross checks, and simplified analytical methods.
- Develops sketches, markups, and calculation packages that clearly communicate design intent to internal teams, fabricators, and third party engineers.
- Applies AISC, ASCE 7, ACI, and manufacturer data to determine allowable stresses, deflection limits, and connection requirements.
- Evaluates existing structures and proposed modifications using both field measurements and analytical methods to confirm adequacy or identify required reinforcement.
- Coordinates with mechanical, piping, and equipment teams to ensure structural components are properly sized for loads, clearances, and installation constraints.
- Incorporates constructability and fabrication considerations into sizing decisions to support prefabrication and efficient installation.
3. WORKS CLOSELY WITH OTHER DISCIPLINES TO MINIMIZE OBSTRUCTIONS
- Demonstrate the ability to effectively communicate and contribute to internal and external engineering and design teams.
- Contribute to design efforts with all parties involved in the project, including Owners, outside engineers, architects, consultants, contractors, trade contractors, and project management staff.
- Participate in Owner Design Coordination Meetings with open communication and collaboration with owners, designers, and trade partners to build a team atmosphere, resolve conflicts early, and drive progress.
- Utilize online collaboration tools and web meetings to coordinate/communicate and conduct business efficiently.
- Built positive relationships with internal and external project managers, project engineers, design partners, and customers when collaborating on projects.
- Communicate effectively to ensure all team members and customers are well informed throughout the design process, including effective use of face-to-face meetings, web and phone conferences, collaborative software, design meetings, events, and other common channels of communication.
4. DIRECTS AND CHECKS THE DETAILING OF STRUCTURES BY DESIGNERS AND DRAFTERS
- Coordinate the structural design portion of projects, make design recommendations and decisions, and oversee the completion and quality of construction drawings, specifications, reports, and other project documentation under the direction of a Sr. Structural Engineer.
- Be organized and effectively manage time and tasks.
- Other responsibilities may include but are not limited to assisting with scope development, site investigation, specification and technical writing, conceptual design, design/engineering management, development of engineering standards, and estimating.
5. ANALYZES EXISTING STRUCTURES TO ACCOMMODATE CHANGES IN LOADING
- Perform job site observations and report deficiencies, nonconformance, safety issues, quality control issues, and opportunities for
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Could flatten each subpoint as separate
- . Simpler: produce a flat list of responsibilities (including subpoints). But we need to preserve all substantive information; we can embed subpoints as separate list items.
- Then "EDUCATION AND QUALIFICATIONS" block: includes preferred Masters, BS, passed FE, willing to work towards PE/SE, good oral/written communication, comfortable presenting, completed courses on structural analysis and structural steel design, courses on reinforced concrete design or foundation design a plus, experience using Revit, 3D software, RISA, MS Office beneficial, travel up to 25% or as needed.

Could be a separate section? Not in allowed headings list; we have only those headings. Could put under Requirements or Qualifications. Probably Requirements.
- Then visa sponsorship not available, EEO statement, drug-free workplace, background checks, benefits link.
We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. So we should remove EEO statement, visa sponsorship not available? That's maybe not boilerplate but a specific condition; but it's about visa sponsorship not available. Might be considered relevant?
