## Description

Cooperidge Consulting Firm is seeking a **Project Structural Engineer** for a premier, mentorship-focused firm based in the **Powder Springs / Atlanta, GA** area.

This is a "high-ownership" opportunity within a firm known for its integrity and technical excellence. Unlike larger corporate firms where roles are siloed, you will be involved in the full lifecycle of a project—from initial concept and structural analysis to site inspections and final construction. With a portfolio spanning commercial, industrial, and federal building projects, this role is designed for an engineer who values technical rigor and wants to work closely with architects and contractors in a collaborative, flexible environment.

-   **Construction Documentation:** Prepare detailed engineering drawings and specifications in **Revit**, ensuring all designs meet high-quality standards.
-   **Project Coordination:** Act as a key liaison between architects, contractors, and clients throughout the project lifecycle to ensure seamless execution.
-   **Verification & Submittals:** Review shop drawings and submittals for accuracy; ensure all materials and methods align with the engineering intent.
-   **Field Inspections:** Conduct site visits and structural inspections to monitor progress, verify design compliance, and solve real-world construction challenges.
-   **Code Compliance:** Maintain a deep working knowledge of and ensure adherence to **IBC, ASCE, AISC, ACI, and NDS** building codes.
-   **Technical Communication:** Draft clear, professional engineering reports and communicate complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.

## Requirements

### Education & Licensing

-   **Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering is REQUIRED.**
-   **Experience:** Minimum of **3 to 5+ years** of relevant structural engineering experience.
-   **Licensure:** **Professional Engineer (PE) license is preferred**, though candidates actively pursuing their PE will be considered.
-   **Work Authorization:** Must be authorized to work in the U.S. (Visa sponsorship is not available).

### Software & Technical Skills

-   **Design Tools:** Proficiency in **Revit, RISA, and Bluebeam** is essential.
-   **Code Mastery:** Working knowledge of national building codes (AISC, ACI, NDS, etc.).
-   **Detail Orientation:** A proactive approach to problem-solving with a focus on precision and safety.

### Soft Skills

-   **Collaborative Spirit:** A team player who thrives in a mentorship-heavy environment.
-   **Client Presence:** Confidence in client-facing settings and a professional demeanor.
