Design-Technology Studio

Structural Engineer (High-End Residential)

RemotePosted Nov 24, 2025

Location: High-End Residential

Discipline: UX / Product Design

Experience: 5+ years

Compensation: $120,000–$160,000

We’re partnering with a rapidly scaling design-technology studio that is reinventing how residential and light commercial projects move from concept to permit.

They combine deep technical expertise with a streamlined, tech-forward process—using intelligent workflows, automation, and internal tools to drive unprecedented speed. The studio is scaling rapidly and is hiring aStructural Engineerwho wants more than a conventional engineering position.

If you’re a licensed structural engineer with high-end residential experienceandwho gets energized by building the internal systems and tooling that make design teams faster and smarter, this is the rare role where you can do both—and see your impact immediately.

About the Role

This is a hybrid role where you'll spend:

• 40% of your time doing the structural work you know best

Designing residential structures, coordinating with architects, pushing projects through permitting, and ensuring code-aligned solutions.

• 60% of your time helping build the internal tools that accelerate the entire design and permitting pipeline.

This could include:

  • Developing code-analysis prompts and internal decision models.

  • Improving drafting/engineering standards and workflows.

  • Contributing to lightweight AI-driven tools that support design, QA, and client service.

  • Identifying operational bottlenecks and designing “accelerants” that unlock scale.

Location:United States (Remote-first, with occasional site visits across the US)
