• Collaborate closely with Project Managers, Detailers, Superintendents, and Foremen to evaluate constructability, resolve field constraints, and coordinate timely revisions.
• Serve as a key point of contact for internal stakeholders on structural design matters, participating in engineering turnover meetings, project meetings, and design coordination efforts.
• Create and compile detailed anchorage and bracing calculation packages, including CAD-generated details, with clear and consistent presentation.
• Stamp design packages with a current PE license where required for permit submissions or code compliance.
• Attend manufacturer-led training sessions, industry seminars, and SVM’s internal Learning & Development courses to stay current on evolving codes, standards, and best practices in structural design.

Education, Skills & Experience

• Bachelor’s degree in Civil, Architectural, or Structural Engineering required.
• 8+ years’ of structural design experience with a minimum of 3+ years designing structural components for HVAC & Plumbing projects/systems required.
• Professional Engineer (PE) license in California or Nevada required.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts to non-engineers required.
• Proven ability to support multiple projects with shifting priorities and fast-paced schedules required.
• Proficient in AutoCAD, REVIT, Bluebeam, RISA-3D, Microsoft Office Products, and anchor design software preferred.
• Knowledge of applicable building codes and seismic design criteria required.
• Advanced knowledge of mechanical systems, equipment anchorage, and seismic bracing in the MEP industry required.
