Location: London, Ontario Area
Employment Type: Full-Time | Permanent | On-Site
Industry: Structural Engineering / Infrastructure
Design Complex Structures. Take Technical Ownership. Build Infrastructure That Lasts.
We’re partnering confidentially with an established Canadian infrastructure organization seeking an experienced Structural Bridge Engineer to join its engineering team.
This is an opportunity for a licensed Professional Engineer to take meaningful technical ownership of complex steel bridge and structural infrastructure projects, working from early engineering concepts through detailed design, fabrication, and construction.
You’ll combine hands-on structural engineering with technical leadership, collaborating closely with project teams, fabrication, clients, and other engineering professionals.
For an engineer who wants to remain technically engaged while expanding their influence and leadership, this offers a strong next step.
What You’ll Do
Engineer and analyze steel bridge structures and related infrastructure systems
Complete structural calculations, load analysis, stress assessments, and advanced structural modelling
Review and take professional responsibility for engineering drawings and technical documentation
Support projects through concept development, detailed engineering, fabrication, delivery, and construction
Resolve technical challenges in collaboration with project management, drafting, fabrication, and field teams
Participate in engineering reviews and QA/QC activities
Provide technical direction and mentorship to junior engineers and engineering students
Work directly with clients and project stakeholders on technical requirements, design modifications, approvals, and inspections
Contribute to the development of improved structural solutions, connections, materials, and engineering methodologies
Provide technical input into proposals, presentations, and other project-development activities
The underlying position carries substantial responsibility across bridge design, analysis, professional approvals, project delivery, technical mentoring and client interaction.
What We’re Looking For
Required
Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering, Structural Engineering, or a closely related discipline
Licensed Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) in at least three Canadian provinces
5+ years of structural engineering experience
Strong background in structural steel design and analysis
Experience designing bridges, transportation structures, or comparable complex steel structures
Strong understanding of Canadian structural and bridge engineering codes
Ability to review and take professional responsibility for structural engineering deliverables
Experience with structural analysis and engineering design software
Strong technical judgment and problem-solving capability
Ability to communicate effectively with engineering, project, fabrication, construction, and client stakeholders
Highly Valued Experience
Bridge engineering
Modular or prefabricated bridge systems
Structural steel fabrication
Finite Element Analysis
RISA, IDEA StatiCa, or comparable structural-analysis platforms
CSA and CISC standards
Canadian bridge design standards
AASHTO, AISC, Eurocode, or international structural standards
Construction or field engineering exposure
Mentoring junior engineers
Client-facing technical responsibility
Who Will Thrive Here?
You’re a technically strong structural engineer who wants more than producing calculations in isolation.
You understand how engineering decisions affect fabrication, constructability, cost, schedule, and field execution.
You’re comfortable taking professional responsibility for your work, challenging designs when necessary, working through complex technical problems, and helping less-experienced engineers develop.
Most importantly, you enjoy seeing engineering move beyond the model and drawing package into real structures being fabricated and built.
Why Consider This Opportunity?
Work on technically challenging bridge and infrastructure projects
Take significant ownership of structural design and engineering decisions
Remain hands-on technically while developing leadership responsibilities
Work closely with fabrication and project-delivery teams
Mentor developing engineers
Exposure to projects across multiple Canadian jurisdictions
Long-term professional development and career growth
Competitive compensation and comprehensive benefits
Company pension program
