• Document and check the work

• Prepare clear engineering reports and calculations that explain your assumptions, methods and results.
• Perform and review quality checks (QA/QC) on analyses, drawings and deliverables so they are accurate and code-compliant.

• Support construction administration, including shop drawings, requests for information (RFIs) and technical submittals.

• Work with partners

• Work with project managers, drafters, senior engineers, clients, contractors, building officials and consultants to align design requirements with project goals.
• Serve as a go-to technical resource for internal teams and external stakeholders.

• Work with jurisdictions to show code compliance and secure permits and approvals.

• Get out in the field

• Visit sites to verify existing conditions and confirm design feasibility.

• Write field reports that capture your observations, measurements and recommendations.

• Improve how the team works

• Uphold federal, state, local and company safety standards and engineering codes.
• Find ways to make design more efficient, standardized and higher quality.
• Mentor colleagues and share what you know.

WORKING CONDITIONS AND PHYSICAL DEMANDS

This role involves a balanced combination of office-based work and field assignments. Office work primarily includes computer-based structural analysis, preparation of technical reports, and virtual collaboration with project teams and clients across multiple locations.

Field work may involve site visits to telecommunications installations such as towers, rooftops, and monopoles. These assignments may require working in outdoor environments and varying weather conditions, as well as navigating uneven terrain or elevated structures in compliance with safety standards and protocols.

Up to 10% travel (domestic and international) may be required to conduct site inspections, attend client meetings, or provide construction and engineering support. The incumbent must be able to travel on short notice and effectively manage responsibilities across multiple time zones.
