Senior Structural Engineer

We are seeking a Senior Structural Engineer to lead the design and analysis of advanced AI data center facilities. In this role, you will be responsible for ensuring the structural integrity, safety, and cost-effectiveness of large-scale, mission-critical infrastructure. You will collaborate closely with architects, mechanical engineers, electrical engineers, and construction managers to deliver cohesive, high-quality designs that meet or exceed industry standards. Key Responsibilities Structural Design & Analysis Develop detailed structural designs for data center facilities, including steel, concrete, and composite structures. Conduct comprehensive analysis using industry-standard software (e.g., SAP2000, ETABS, STAAD.Pro) to evaluate loads, stresses, and potential failure points. Ensure designs integrate well with other building systems (HVAC, electrical, fire protection), prioritizing both functionality and resilience. Technical Documentation & Approvals Review and approve technical drawings, specifications, and calculations, guaranteeing accuracy and compliance with project requirements. Prepare structural reports, feasibility studies, and other documentation for client presentations and regulatory submissions. Collaborate with BIM teams to produce and maintain accurate AutoCAD/Revit models, managing version control and design revisions. Cross-Disciplinary Collaboration Coordinate closely with architects, mechanical, and electrical engineers to ensure cohesive and efficient structural designs. Participate in design review meetings, value engineering sessions, and cross-functional coordination workshops. Provide technical insight to project managers, construction teams, and subcontractors, helping resolve issues related to design or materials. Site Inspections & Construction Support Perform regular site visits to verify construction is aligned with approved drawings, quality standards, and safety regulations. Monitor contractor work, addressing any discrepancies or technical challenges promptly. Provide expert guidance during construction phases, ensuring correct interpretation of structural drawings and specifications. Standards & Regulatory Compliance Ensure all structural designs comply with relevant codes—such as Eurocodes, BS EN standards, or equivalent local regulations—and company guidelines. Stay up to date on code updates, emerging structural technologies, and best practices relevant to data center construction. Document and implement quality control procedures to maintain the highest design and construction standards. Evaluate and introduce modern construction materials, methods, and technologies (e.g., Tekla Structures for steel detailing) to enhance efficiency and sustainability. Engage in ongoing professional development to stay abreast of the latest industry trends, potentially integrating them into future projects. Identify opportunities to optimize structural design workflows, streamline processes, and reduce costs without compromising quality or safety. Skills & Qualifications Education : Bachelor's or Master's degree in Civil or Structural Engineering (or related field). Experience : 8+ years in structural engineering, ideally with experience in data centers or other mission-critical facilities. Proven track record of completing large-scale, complex projects on time and within budget. Technical Skills : Proficiency in SAP2000, ETABS, STAAD.Pro for structural analysis. Working knowledge of AutoCAD, Revit (BIM), and Tekla Structures for steel detailing. Familiarity with Eurocodes, BS EN standards, or relevant local/regional regulations. Soft Skills : Strong leadership, analytical, and problem-solving capabilities; excellent communication and team collaboration. Certifications : Professional Engineer (PE) or Chartered Engineer (CEng) registration is highly advantageous. Additional certifications in seismic design or sustainability are a plus. Why Join Us?
