Additionally, you may work on fisheries projects that involve conservation and enhancement hatcheries, research facilities, acclimation facilities, fish passage, fish collection and sorting, and aquaculture-related infrastructure. In this role, you will be responsible for delivering quality projects on time and within budget. You will collaborate with a team of Structural Engineers and Designers for larger projects or work independently on smaller projects. Your involvement will span all phases of structural design, from conceptual design to construction administration. You will interface with clients throughout the design and construction process, support junior engineers, prepare and check design calculations of structural systems, and write forensic and investigation reports. Utilizing advanced structural engineering software tools, particularly RISA software, you will ensure compliance with local and state building codes while participating in construction administration activities as required by the project.
