Full Job Description

Description:

This position will offer you the opportunity to utilize and expand your academic background in structural engineering in a professional position offering a wide range of interesting and challenging responsibilities. You will team up with other engineers and designers from various disciplines involved in the design of new nuclear facilities, nuclear plant betterment, and associated modifications.

As an Entry-Level Structural Engineer, you will have the ability to directly apply your knowledge of materials, structural analysis, structural steel design, and reinforced concrete design.
As a member of an engineering and design team, you will work on a wide range of projects for various clients. You will prepare design calculations, develop specifications, and support designers with drawing development.
Using our state-of-the-art computer tools, you will perform the structural analysis and design of steel frames, connections, concrete members, equipment and piping supports, and foundations.
Additionally, you will conduct structural analyses, which include loading conditions such as wind and seismic.

Additional opportunities will include:

Receive training and mentorship from experienced structural design engineers in the execution of meaningful project engineering assignments.
There is the potential for you to travel to client and vendor offices for design reviews and to plant site locations for construction coordination and field verification of designs.

Qualifications:

We do not sponsor employees for work authorization in the U.S. for this position.

Essential skills and experience:

A Bachelor’s or Master’s of Science in Structural/Civil Engineering or Architectural Engineering with a strong academic background and interest in behavior of materials, structural analysis, structural steel design, and reinforced concrete design
- Completion of coursework in steel and concrete design
Knowledge of the practical application of structural engineering including loads analysis for structural supports and design integrity
An understanding of the practical application of structural engineering including applying principles, techniques, and procedures to a project design
Knowledge of structural design techniques, tools, and principles involved in the production of technical plans, drawings, and models
Excellent verbal and written communication skills
Proficiency with MS Office applications

Valued but not required skills and experience:

A Bachelor’s or Master’s of Science from an ABET Engineering Accreditation Commission-approved program
Successful completion of the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) exam, and designation as an Engineer in Training
Experience in writing and providing support documentation for Structural Engineering calculations
Familiarity with structural analysis software such as MathCad, STAAD PRO, SAP2000, SAFE, GT STRUDL, or ANSYS
Familiarity with design codes and standards such as IBC, ASCE 7, AISC, N690, ACI 318, and ACI 349

AI & Automation at Sargent & Lundy:

In this role, we expect people to be willing or able to solve problems using modern tools:

You are expected to take engineering problems from issue to solution using data and modern tools such as automation and AI to improve workflows, reduce rework, and deliver cost-effective designs.
Many engineers in these roles build or use automation to create calculations, summarize technical documents, or draft design documentation, including appropriate use of agentic AI tools, with strong engineering judgment and verification of results.
Programming or scripting (e.g., Python, MATLAB, advanced Excel) to automate calculations, design checks, reporting, or data transformation is valued but not required.
We also value additional learning, such as a minor, certificate, or other training in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Software Engineering, or related fields that helps you apply automation or agentic AI to real engineering problems.

Award-Winning Benefits:

At Sargent & Lundy, we care about the health and well-being of our employees. Our commitment extends beyond the workplace, offering comprehensive healthcare plans and generous paid time off to support our team members in every aspect of their lives. We understand the importance of work-life balance, which is why we are proud to provide competitive, award-winning benefits.
