Structural
Designer
Our desire is to find the key individual with skills in structural design. This is a wonderful career opportunity to live a fabulous life style and yet have the professional challenges of creative design and financial reward.
Our team is looking for an excellent fit for personality as well as technical traits. The ability to communicate well, both in writing and orally is vitally important. People skills are ranked very highly in our quest for this talented person. Our talented group of engineers, architects, and staff are energetic sports oriented individuals who work hard and play hard.
Experience in many materials and forms is desired. Although our principal material is challenging wood and timber frame, steel and concrete always play a part. Creative solutions that surpass pedestrian code requirements are achieved through a varied experience. Primarily we work with custom residential projects, with the occasional commercial project. Never underestimate the complexity of very elaborate and expensive homes in Snow country. Loads can often go up to 400 psf for design roof loads. Performing structural calculations and design would be the primary responsibility of this position. An understanding of seismic and lateral design principals is essential. Some client contact is anticipated with increasing responsibilities as warranted. A B.S. in Civil Engineering and California EIT required. AutoCad and Risa skills a plus but not required. A minimum of 1-4 years experience is required.
