Overview
Responsible for the structural engineering design of self-storage and related building systems. This role requires direct experience with cold-formed steel and other structural systems. The candidate must have a working knowledge of Autodesk AutoCAD and Revit and will contribute to developing and maintaining company-wide Revit standards.
Responsibilities
- Review blueprints, construction details, and sales contracts to produce accurate construction documents and bills of material.
- Perform structural analysis and engineering design for self-storage buildings using cold-formed steel and other structural systems (e.g., hot-rolled steel, concrete, and masonry).
- Ensure code compliance by interpreting and applying model building codes and jurisdictional requirements.
- Review and coordinate drawings produced by Drafters and BIM Technicians.
- Develop and uphold Revit standards for the engineering department; support implementation across design workflows.
- Support drafting, manufacturing, quality assurance, and project planning teams as needed.
- Handle project-specific issues, RFIs, and field-related challenges in collaboration with internal and external stakeholders.
- Manage multiple projects concurrently, delivering accurate and timely engineering output.
- Manage internal and external clients and communicate project expectations and progress effectively.
- Guide and mentor junior engineers, drafters, and Revit technicians to support team development and design consistency.
- Contribute technical expertise throughout the full product life cycle—from concept through construction.
- Other duties as assigned.
