Providing engineering, procurement, and construction services to the energy and industrial sectors.
The position involves applying expertise in materials, structural analysis, steel design, and reinforced concrete design across a wide range of client projects. Responsibilities include preparing and reviewing calculations, specifications, and reports, supporting drawing development, mentoring less‑experienced team members, and using state‑of‑the‑art software to design steel frames, connections, concrete members, and foundations. Travel to client and vendor offices, as well as plant sites, is required for design reviews and field verification.
Candidates must hold a BS in Civil Engineering with a structural focus from an ABET‑accredited program and have at least five years of experience in structural design and analysis. Required skills include proficiency with analysis software such as STAAD, SAP2000, SAFE, STRUDL, or ANSYS, and familiarity with codes like ASCE 7, AISC, and ACI. Excellent written and verbal communication is essential, while an MSCE, power‑plant experience, construction support background, or PE/SE license are valued but not mandatory.
This senior structural engineering role offers a hybrid work schedule, allowing time both in the office and remotely. Joining Sargent & Lundy's Nuclear Power Group provides a unique opportunity to grow in the carbon‑free nuclear energy sector, collaborate with top industry professionals, and benefit from extensive training and mentorship programs.
