Description

Join our Kansas City team as a Structural Intern Engineer (EIT). You won't just be a "number-cruncher"; you will be an integral part of the design process for a variety of building types, including commercial, healthcare, industrial, and multi-family residential projects.

Working under the guidance of seasoned Licensed Professional Engineers (PEs) and Structural Engineers (SEs), you will transition from academic theory to real-world structural solutions, gaining the diverse experience necessary to fast-track your path to licensure.

Annual Base Salary: $73,000 - $90,000

  • Structural Analysis: Perform calculations for wood, steel, masonry, and reinforced concrete structures using industry-standard software and hand calculations.
  • Design Development: Assist in the creation of construction documents, including drawings, sections, and details.
  • BIM Collaboration: Utilize Revit to develop 3D models and coordinate with architectural and MEP partners.
  • Site Visits: Participate in field observations and construction administration to see your designs come to life.
  • Problem Solving: Collaborate with the project team to resolve technical challenges and ensure code compliance (IBC, ASCE 7, AISC, ACI).
Qualifications
  • Education: Bachelor of Science in Civil or Architectural Engineering (with a structural emphasis). A Master's degree is a plus but not required.
  • Certification: Passed the FE (Fundamentals of Engineering) exam or scheduled to take it within 6 months.
