• Serve as the company's primary internal resource for structural engineering and concrete design questions.
• Evaluate project requirements and recommend practical, constructible engineering solutions.
• Collaborate with estimating and operations teams to incorporate engineering considerations into project planning and execution.
• Work directly with the Chief Estimator, CEO, and technical leadership on project needs.
• Apply structural engineering principles with an understanding of how concrete work is actually constructed in the field.
• Help establish processes and standards for a new internal engineering function.
• Provide technical guidance as the company continues expanding its industrial and commercial concrete portfolio.
• Over time, help shape how the organization approaches engineering and design internally.

Must-Haves as the Structural Engineer / Concrete PE:

• Active Professional Engineer (PE) license.
• Professional structural engineering experience with meaningful exposure to concrete design.
• Hands-on experience analyzing and designing reinforced concrete structures and/or concrete systems.
• Strong understanding of concrete design, behavior, and construction.
• Experience personally completing structural calculations and developing construction or engineering documents.
• Ability to independently evaluate project requirements and develop appropriate engineering solutions.
• Technical depth to operate as the primary in-house structural engineering resource.
• Strong judgment and problem-solving skills.
• Ability to collaborate effectively with construction, estimating, operations, and executive leadership.
• Comfortable working independently without the infrastructure of a large engineering department.

• Structural Engineer (SE) designation.
• Experience with slab-on-grade, concrete flooring, or related slab systems.
• Industrial warehouse or distribution center project experience.
• Specialty concrete subcontractor experience.
• Background designing concrete for large industrial or commercial facilities.
• Experience working directly with contractors, subcontractors, estimators, and construction operations teams.
• Previous experience serving as an autonomous senior technical resource.
• Experience translating structural design requirements into practical field solutions.

Offer:

• Competitive base compensation based on technical experience, licensing, and concrete expertise.
• Initial compensation target of $110,000-$150,000, with meaningful flexibility for highly qualified Structural PEs whose market compensation exceeds that range.
• Remote work from anywhere in the U.S.
• Fort Worth/DFW office option for candidates who prefer to work locally.

• Potential 401(k) employer contribution, subject to confirmation of final plan terms.
• Direct access to executive leadership and company ownership.
• Significant autonomy as the company's primary internal structural engineering resource.
