Build What Matters. Lead Work That Lasts.
Are you a structural engineer who wants more than just another set of drawings on your desk?
Our client is a respected, design-forward civil and structural engineering firm in the Pacific Northwest that’s known for tackling complex projects, valuing collaboration, and investing deeply in its people. This is an opportunity to step into a high-impact role where your technical expertise, leadership skills, and judgment truly matter.
If you’re energized by solving challenging structural problems, leading teams, and seeing projects through from concept to construction, this role was built with you in mind.
The Opportunity
As a Structural Project Engineer / Project Manager, you’ll play a key role on a collaborative, technically excellent structural engineering team. You’ll lead projects through all phases conceptual design, detailed analysis, construction documentation, and coordination—while working closely with architects, consultants, and clients.
This is more than a production role. You’ll:
Shape structural solutions for complex, non-prescriptive buildings
Lead and mentor engineers
Guide performance-based design and peer review processes
Have a real voice in project direction and delivery
You’ll be trusted with responsibility, supported by experienced colleagues, and given room to grow technically and professionally.
What You’ll Be Doing
Lead structural design efforts using a variety of systems and materials
Develop construction documents, calculations, and technical narratives
Manage and mentor in-house design teams
Coordinate closely with architects and design consultants
Lead and participate in performance-based design, including peer review
Contribute to the design of commercial office, residential, and healthcare projects
Help drive quality, efficiency, and thoughtful engineering solutions
What We’re Looking For
Master’s degree in Civil Engineering (Structural emphasis)
6+ years of structural design experience
Licensed Structural Engineer (S.E.)
Experience with performance-based design of tall buildings and/or seismic renovations
Working knowledge of LATB, ASCE 41, or similar methodologies
Experience navigating the peer review process for non-prescriptive structures
Proven ability to lead teams and coordinate across disciplines
Strong communication skills and a collaborative mindset
Work Environment & Travel
Primarily office-based work with occasional site visits (Greater Seattle area)
Some domestic travel for projects, conferences, or recruiting
Hybrid schedule: 3 days in-office / 2 days remote (after onboarding)
Compensation & Benefits
$110,000 – $150,000 base salary, depending on experience
Paid overtime for hours worked beyond 40/week (paid quarterly)
Strong potential for career growth and leadership advancement
Medical (HSA with employer contributions), dental, and vision
Company-paid life and AD&D insurance
ORCA card provided
15–27 days PTO, based on experience
8 paid national holidays (including a floating holiday)
401(k) with employer match
Annual bonus and profit-sharing opportunities
Monthly health & wellness stipend
Employee Assistance Program
Why This Role Stands Out
This firm was built with the belief that excellent engineering starts with strong relationships with clients, colleagues, and the communities they serve. You’ll join a culture that values collaboration, respect, technical rigor, and meaningful work.
If you’re looking for a role where your experience is trusted, your leadership is welcomed, and your work has lasting impact, we’d love to connect.
