Design Engineer – Structural & Systems (Solar)
This role is for an engineer who wants more than just drawings.

- Work with wind tunnel data and translate it into usable design rules
- Help evolve engineering standards as codes change over time
- Improve how our systems work (AutoCAD, calculators and proprietary software)
- Catch issues before they reach clients; own quality, not just output
What We’re Looking For
- 3 to 6 years in design engineering or structural engineering
- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering or a related field
- Strong understanding of loads, building codes, and real-world constraints
- Comfortable using AutoCAD
- Able to interpret technical reports and apply them practically
- Someone who enjoys taking ownership and finding solutions to real-world problems
Nice to Have (Not Required)

- Wind loading / environmental loading exposure
- AutoLISP or automation experience
