Are you prepared to shape the buildings of tomorrow and witness their creation in real-time? Come be a part of our team where this is possible.
We are seeking a motivated and detail-oriented Junior Structural Engineer to play a vital role in our growing firm located in Sarasota, FL. This is not just an ordinary entry-level position — it is Florida’s premier junior structural opportunity, offering a blend of cutting-edge building design and on-site threshold inspections so you can witness your work come to life from start to finish.
Whether you are a recent graduate or at the beginning of your career, this role provides valuable experience that sets you apart — from commercial and manufacturing projects to adaptive reuse and public-sector facilities, you will be hands-on with a variety of exciting projects.

SOFT SKILLS THAT SET YOU APART:

  • Strong communicator and team player.
  • Self-motivated, proactive, and willing to take ownership.
  • Desire to learn in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment.
  • Committed to personal growth and future licensure.
Responsibilities

WHAT YOU’LL DO:

  • Design structural systems for a range of building types — real projects, not just drafts.
  • Visit construction sites to inspect the structures you assisted in designing.
  • Prepare structural drawings and technical specifications to bring ideas to life.
  • Collaborate with experienced engineers, drafters, and architects in a supportive setting.
  • Participate in client meetings and coordination sessions for early exposure to the field.
  • Conduct structural calculations using the latest tools and codes.
  • Utilize leading structural software such as TEKLA, RAM, ETABS, RISA, REVIT, and more.
  • Assist in reviewing drawings and documents to contribute to a high-quality end product.

WHY THIS ROLE STANDS OUT:

  • Witness your designs come to life within months.
  • Receive mentorship from senior engineers who want to see you thrive.
  • Work on actual projects — not just fragments.
  • Be part of a collaborative, growth-oriented culture.
  • Enjoy a beautiful office location in Sarasota, just minutes away from the beach.
