WE’RE HIRING: STRUCTURAL ENGINEER | MODULAR CONSTRUCTION
Design the future. Engineer what’s next. Build something bigger.
Inspired Designs Engineering and Architecture (IDEA) is looking for a talented and detail-driven Structural Engineer to help shape the future of modular and off-site construction across the United States.
This isn’t simply a structural engineering role. You’ll have the opportunity to take engineering concepts from design and calculations through manufacturing, transportation, installation, and final construction—seeing your work become real buildings.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
As a Structural Engineer, you’ll develop safe, efficient, and code-compliant structural systems for a wide range of modular projects, including commercial, residential, hospitality, education, healthcare, government, and specialty buildings.
Key responsibilities include:
- Design structural steel, cold-formed steel, hybrid systems, and modular chassis.
- Perform structural calculations for wind, snow, seismic, live/dead, transportation, lifting, and installation loads.
- Design structural connections, anchorage, tie-downs, and foundation interface systems.
- Prepare engineering drawings, calculations, details, and specifications.
- Support state approvals, code compliance, and third-party engineering reviews.
- Optimize designs for manufacturing efficiency, material usage, transportation, and installation.
- Participate in product development, value engineering, and continuous improvement initiatives.
- Partner with manufacturing and production teams to improve quality, efficiency, and standardization.
- Provide technical support for field installation and structural challenges.
WHAT YOU BRING
Required Qualifications:
- Bachelor’s degree in Civil or Structural Engineering.
- Minimum 5 years of structural engineering experience.
- Commercial building structural design experience.
- Strong knowledge of structural steel and applicable building codes.
- Strong analytical, communication, and problem-solving skills.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Professional Engineer (PE) license.
- Multi-state engineering licensure.
- Experience with modular, prefabricated, industrialized, or off-site construction.
- Experience with state modular approval programs.
- BIM and digital manufacturing experience.
- Experience with CNC-driven fabrication processes.
- Proficiency with AutoCAD, Revit, RISA, RAM, STAAD, Enercalc, Bluebeam, and Microsoft Office.
WHY JOIN IDEA?
At IDEA, your engineering expertise can have an impact far beyond the drawing board.
You’ll work at the intersection of engineering, architecture, manufacturing, and technology, helping develop structural systems designed to improve quality, efficiency, scalability, and cost competitiveness.
If you're a Structural Engineer who enjoys solving complex problems, improving how things are built, and turning innovative ideas into real-world structures, this could be your next opportunity.
Join IDEA and help engineer the future of modular construction.
