Original job description

JOB DESCRIPTION

Our client is hiring a Structural Engineer to join their growing engineering team in Ottawa. The firm prioritizes safety and quality in every project, fostering partnerships built on trust, transparency, and collaboration for mutual success. Joining this team means stepping into a fast-paced, highly dynamic environment where innovation, technical precision, and practical buildability come first. Unlike traditional large firms where engineers are often restricted to narrow, repetitive tasks, this firm specializes in a diverse range of niche and complex engineering challenges. On a day-to-day basis, you will work closely with leadership on structural design, connection engineering, and site inspections. You will spend your days balancing computer-aided drafting and structural modeling with hands-on site visits, client collaboration, and direct project execution. A comprehensive 3-to-6-month mentorship and onboarding program is provided to train you on specialized design methods, enabling you to rapidly expand your structural engineering skill set and take real ownership of projects.

Responsibilities

Design & Modeling: Develop detailed structural designs and technical drawings using AutoCAD, Revit, Civil 3D, MicroStation, and Bluebeam. Create accurate drafting and modeling across commercial, residential, and specialized structural projects (e.g., bridges, buildings, steel, timber, and infrastructure). • Structural Analysis: Perform comprehensive structural frame and connection analyses using S-FRAME, Mathcad, STAAD, ETABS, and other engineering calculation tools to ensure full compliance with safety standards and building codes.
Niche Structural & Connection Design: Assist in specialized engineering areas including welding design, steel connection design, seismic restraints/anchorage (MEP), and interior fit-ups.
Site Visits & Inspections: Conduct regular site visits to inspect ongoing construction, assess existing structural conditions, verify load anchorage/pull testing, and ensure site compliance with design specifications.
Project Management & Workflow: Manage assigned project deliverables from concept to completion, meeting tight deadlines while balancing resource allocation and budget constraints.
Collaboration & Communication: Coordinate closely with multidisciplinary teams, including architects, contractors, steel fabricators, and project managers, to resolve technical issues and keep projects moving forward.
Documentation: Prepare thorough calculation packages, technical reports, structural reviews, and documentation required for regulatory body approvals and client submissions.

REQUIRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE

Education: Bachelor’s degree in Civil or Structural Engineering.

Experience:

Minimum 3–5 years of overall engineering experience.
At least 2 years of dedicated Civil/Structural Engineering experience.
Preference for candidates coming from smaller engineering firms

Technical & Drafting Software (Required from Original JD):

CAD & Drafting Software: High proficiency in CAD and drafting software, including AutoCAD, Revit, Civil 3D, MicroStation, and Bluebeam.
Structural Analysis Software: Proficiency with structural analysis tools, including S-FRAME, STAAD, ETABS, etc.
Engineering Calculation Tools: Proficiency with Mathcad and other standard engineering tools.

Industry & Construction Knowledge: Strong practical understanding of construction processes, structural mechanics, civil engineering principles, building codes, and safety regulations.

Drivers License: Valid driver’s license and access to a reliable personal vehicle for local site visits (reimbursed per provincial km rates).

NICE TO HAVE SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE

Specialized Connection & Timber Software:

Experience with IDEA Statica (niche connection design).
Experience with Woodworks (Canadian wood/timber element and connection design software).

Construction Background, Prior or post engineering degree.

Industry Background: Experience working directly with steel fabricators, truss manufacturers, or deck manufacturers (e.g., Canam).

Advanced Education & Credentials: Master’s degree in Structural/Civil Engineering, Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) license, or equivalent.

Pay Transparency:

The expected Annual Salary for this position is up to $100,000/year.

Vacancy Status:

This Posting is for a current vacant role, and the successful candidate will be hired into an existing open position.

Artificial intelligence tools are used to assist in screening and assessing applicants for this position.
