Job Summary:

We are looking for engineers who want to go beyond traditional design.

This role is not about simply using software — it's about rethinking how structural design is done through computation.

You will work at the intersection of:

• Structural Engineering
• Algorithmic Thinking
• Automation & Workflow Development

Responsibilities:

• Develop computational pipelines linking geometry → analysis → design → detailing
• Automate structural engineering processes (loading, checks, iterations, reporting)
• Build and maintain internal tools using Grasshopper, Python, C#, and APIs
• Translate engineering logic into scalable, repeatable workflows
• Work on complex and non-standard structural projects (e.g., large-span, irregular systems)
• Contribute to the development of the Digital Innovation Practice (DIP)

Requirements:

• Strong structural engineering fundamentals (load paths, behavior, stability, steel/concrete design)
• Ability to validate models, question FEM results, and simplify complex systems
• Proficiency in Grasshopper and working knowledge of Python or C#
• Algorithmic thinking: ability to structure problems into inputs → logic → outputs
• Interest in automation, computational workflows, and tool development
• Curious, research-oriented mindset with ability to learn independently
• Experience with Rhino, Revit, Dynamo, and structural software APIs (SAP2000, ETABS, etc.)

Kind Note:

* While we carefully review all applications, only candidates meeting the specified requirements will be contacted for further consideration. We appreciate your understanding and thank all applicants for their interest.
