xPL Structural Engineer
Posted Updated
Position Description: Design structural systems (including analysis, connection design, and detailing) for offsite manufactured and modular building components. Provide oversight of offsite manufactured elements to meet structural integrity, safety, and compliance standards while optimizing for transport, assembly, and installation on-site. Essential Duties Key Responsibilities: Develop structural designs for xPL Offsite Manufacturing (OSM) products and systems, including steel framing, supports, foundations, and connections, for multiple complex projects. Perform complete structural analysis, including Finite Element Modeling (FEM), to validate design integrity under varying load conditions. Collaborate with Architects, Mechanical Engineers, Electrical Engineers, Structural Engineers, and other construction disciplines to seamlessly integrate OSM structural components. Create detailed engineering drawings and simulations using SAP2000, STAAD, Inventor, and Revit applications. Engage in client-facing and cross-functional discussions to coordinate structural designs, propose solutions to mitigate risks and finalize structural designs. Exercise independent judgment in engineering decisions to develop designs and in review and approval of engineering drawings, specifications, and project documents and confirm coordination of vendor drawings to engineering requirements. Assess materials and construction methods for optimal performance and cost efficiency. Partner with xPL OSM manufacturing team to oversee designs that optimize production, assembly, transportation, and site installation. Conduct shop floor and field visits to verify constructability and alignment with operational needs. Stay current on innovations in structural engineering and OSM construction techniques. Support research and development efforts focused on developing and enhancing OSM products and solutions. Prepare technical studies, specifications, cost estimates, and proposal evaluations. Other activities, duties, and responsibilities as assigned.
