Overview:

Kimley-Horn's Long Beach office is seeking a Waterfront Structural Engineer with 3+ years of experience to join their Structures team. This is not a remote position.

Responsibilities:

Perform structural analysis and design calculations for marine structures including pile-supported platforms, wharves, sheet pile walls, bulkheads, and floating dock systems under the direction of a licensed engineer.
Develop and maintain structural models, applying appropriate loading conditions including gravity, seismic, wave, and vessel impact loads.
Produce construction drawings, design details, and specifications in AutoCAD and/or Revit consistent with project requirements and applicable codes (ASCE 7, ACI 318, AISC, AASHTO).
Support coastal and waterfront permitting efforts by preparing technical exhibits, calculations, and supporting documentation for regulatory submissions.
Assist project managers with data collection, field observation reports, condition assessments, and site investigation support at waterfront project sites.
Coordinate with multidisciplinary project teams including coastal engineers, environmental scientists, and planners to ensure structural design integration.
Participate in client meetings, design reviews, and project presentations under the guidance of senior team members.
Maintain organized project files, track action items, and support project schedule adherence.

Qualifications:

Working knowledge of AutoCAD; experience with Revit or Civil 3D a plus.
Familiarity with structural design codes including ASCE 7, ACI 318, AISC Steel Construction Manual, and AASHTO.
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with demonstrated attention to calculation accuracy and documentation quality.
Effective written and verbal communication skills; ability to work collaboratively in a team environment.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

Master's degree in Structural Engineering with coursework in structural dynamics, advanced structural analysis, finite element methods, or probabilistic methods.
Exposure to marine, waterfront, or coastal infrastructure projects — including wharves, piers, transit stations, or bridge structures — through internship, graduate research, or early career experience.
Familiarity with seismic design principles including Response Spectrum Analysis per ASCE 7.
Experience with MATLAB or Python for engineering calculations, data processing, or structural simulation workflows.
Knowledge of geotechnical fundamentals (soil mechanics, lateral earth pressure, pile behavior) as applicable to marine structural foundations.
Demonstrated ability to communicate technical findings clearly through written reports and visual presentations.

Salary Range:
$100,000 to $125,000
