Woodstock, Georgia | $90,000–$110,000 + Bonus
Here's an opportunity to join a growing structural engineering firm where you'll actually know the people you're working with, have direct access to leadership, and take ownership of your projects from design through completion.
We're looking for a Structural Engineer who enjoys the technical side of engineering but also wants variety, autonomy, and the satisfaction of seeing their designs become real structures.
You'll work on a diverse mix of residential and light commercial projects including new construction, additions, renovations, structural repairs, foundations, and framing systems.
No endless layers of management.
No being stuck designing the same thing every day.
You'll work directly with experienced engineers, architects, builders, contractors, and clients while developing practical structural solutions that actually get built.
This isn't a production-line engineering position.
You'll have the opportunity to take projects from initial concept through structural design, drawings, coordination, and completion.
You'll see the entire process and understand how your engineering decisions affect the finished project.
The project mix includes:
Custom residential construction
Home additions
Renovations
Structural repairs
Wood-framed structures
Foundations
Light commercial buildings
Existing building modifications
If you enjoy solving structural puzzles instead of repeatedly designing the same building type, you'll like the variety here.
Most of your work will be engineering and design, but you'll also have occasional local site visits to evaluate existing conditions and see projects firsthand.
The key word is local.
This isn't a heavy-travel consulting position where you're constantly living out of a suitcase.
You'll join a small, family-oriented engineering firm where your work will be noticed.
You'll have direct access to experienced engineers and company leadership rather than being buried several levels deep inside a large organization.
That creates an excellent environment for an engineer who wants to continue developing technically while gaining more responsibility and independence.
You'll provide structural engineering and design for residential and light commercial projects throughout the area.
Responsibilities will include:
Designing structural systems for residential and light commercial buildings
Performing structural calculations and analysis
Designing wood framing systems
Developing foundation designs
Preparing framing plans
Producing construction documents
Creating and modifying engineering drawings using AutoCAD
Reviewing drawings for structural integrity and code compliance
Developing solutions for renovations, additions, and structural repairs
Evaluating existing structures
Performing occasional local site visits
Coordinating with architects, builders, contractors, homeowners, and clients
Managing multiple projects and deadlines
Maintaining accurate engineering documentation
We're looking for an engineer who understands structural design and enjoys finding practical solutions to real-world construction challenges.
Ideally, you'll bring:
Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering, Structural Engineering, or related discipline
Structural design experience
Residential structural engineering experience
Knowledge of wood-framed construction
Understanding of foundations and structural framing systems
Ability to perform structural calculations and develop construction documents
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
Ability to communicate effectively with architects, contractors, builders, and clients
Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously
AutoCAD experience is preferred.
EIT or PE certification is a plus, but it is not required.
Salary: $90,000–$110,000, depending on experience
The company also offers:
Annual performance bonus
Annual performance reviews
Potential 3–5% annual salary increases based on performance
3% IRA match
Company-provided computer
Company-provided tools for site visits
Relocation assistance available for the right candidate
And here's something increasingly rare in engineering:
A predictable schedule.
Monday through Friday with your choice of approximately 7:00 AM–4:00 PM or 8:00 AM–5:00 PM.
Minimal weekend work.
Local site visits only.
This is an excellent opportunity for a Structural Engineer who wants to escape the corporate shuffle and become an important part of a growing engineering firm.
You'll get variety.
You'll get ownership.
You'll work directly with the people making decisions.
And you'll have the opportunity to grow professionally as the company continues to grow around you.
If you enjoy residential structural engineering and want your next position to offer more than simply another desk and another stack of calculations, we'd like to hear from you.
