About GTI

GTI is a rapidly growing manufacturer of mission-critical modular infrastructure, delivering high-quality steel-based structures for the energy, defense, and heavy industrial markets. With engineering and fabrication facilities in both Phoenix and Buffalo, GTI specializes in custom modular enclosures, containerized systems, and large-scale steel assemblies designed for deployment in extreme environments.

Position Overview

We are seeking a highly skilled Structural Engineer to join our engineering team and drive the design, analysis, and validation of modular steel structures. While experience in bridge or suspended structure design is highly valued, the core focus of this role is on modular fabrication, large welded assemblies, and containerized structures used in high-load industrial environments.

This role requires a hands-on engineer who can translate concepts into production-ready designs, work closely with fabrication teams, and ensure structural integrity, safety, and code compliance.

Key Responsibilities

• Structural Design & Analysis

Design modular steel structures, large welded assemblies, platforms, frames, and load-bearing systems for containerized and enclosure-based applications.

Develop engineering drawings, design reports, and complete technical documentation using SolidWorks, AutoCAD, and Revit / BIM tools.

Partner with fabrication, quality, and project teams to ensure structural designs are optimized for manufacturability, cost efficiency, and internal capability.

Conduct site assessments, participate in installation support, and perform structural evaluations of deployed modular systems.

Ensure all designs comply with applicable structural codes and standards, including IBC, AISC, AWS D1.1, and applicable state regulations.
