Location: Trevose, PA Join a Nationally Recognized A&E Firm

Strengthen What’s Built. Build What’s Next.

A leading architecture and engineering firm is seeking a Licensed Structural Engineer to join their team in Trevose, PA. This high-impact role is ideal for a technically proficient, field-experienced professional with 5+ years of experience in the rehabilitation and renovation of existing structures, particularly in residential and low-rise commercial environments.

The ideal candidate will have a deep understanding of building systems, framing, and structural performance, particularly in retail, recreational, or community-use facilities such as playgrounds and parks. A hands-on, investigative approach is essential to thrive in this role.

Why This Role Stands Out

National Reach, Personal Growth – Rapid expansion creates accelerated career paths with personalized development plans

Promotion from Within – Grow into leadership roles through proven performance and initiative

Mentorship Culture – Collaborate closely with experienced professionals who are invested in your success

Challenging, Specialized Projects – Tackle complex structural challenges including forensic assessments and building envelope failures

Key Responsibilities

Project & Technical Leadership

Lead structural engineering projects from evaluation through final deliverables

Perform field assessments, site inspections, and forensic investigations of existing structures

Develop detailed construction drawings, technical reports, and recommendations for repair or rehabilitation

Review shop drawings, respond to RFIs, and provide structural support during construction

Coordinate efforts across disciplines (architecture, MEP, civil) to ensure integrated project delivery

Client & Team Collaboration

Serve as a trusted resource for property owners, design professionals, and contractors

Attend site visits, client meetings, and presentations to communicate structural findings and recommendations

Mentor junior staff and contribute to internal knowledge-sharing when applicable

Required Qualifications

Licensed Professional Engineer (PE) specializing in Structural Engineering

5+ years of experience in residential, multi-family, or low-rise commercial structures

Strong expertise in existing building evaluation, renovation, rehabilitation, and forensic assessments

Bachelor’s degree in Engineering or a related discipline

Proficiency in AutoCAD, Revit, and structural analysis software

Excellent written and verbal communication skills

Valid U.S. driver’s license and ability to travel to project sites

OSHA-10 Certification preferred (or willingness to obtain)

Bonus Experience

Experience with wood-framed construction, decks, balconies, and structural repairs

Familiarity with AIA contract documents and construction administration procedures

Comfortable in client-facing roles, with the ability to manage projects independently

Ready to Take the Next Step?

This is a standout opportunity to work on technically challenging and meaningful structural projects across a variety of building types. If you’re a structural engineer who thrives on problem-solving, collaboration, and professional growth, we’d love to hear from you.

Let’s strengthen what’s already built—and build what’s next.
