• Coordinate and lead small design teams focused on structural design for a specific project.
• Carry out non-complex value engineering evaluations, determining alternative designs, materials and construction techniques.
• Work autonomously within established procedures, with latitude to set work priorities.
• Perform quality control reviews of design calculations or drawings, including interdisciplinary reviews.
• Ensure project technical goals, milestones and budgets are met.
• Prepare complex project deliverables and supervise and mentor junior technical and support staff.

• Master's degree in Civil Engineering from a recognised university.
• Proven track record in bridges and/or structures design, with some experience working with international and multicultural teams (more than 5 years).
• Experience with international standards such as AASHTO, AREMA, Australian codes and British Standards.
• Fluent English, oral and written.
• Ability to solve complex issues with limited direction in the bridges and structures field.
• Experience in the North America / ANZ region is considered favourably.

Required skills

• Engineering software for bridges and structures; Midas Civil is preferred, but CSiBridge, SAP2000 and others are also considered.

What we offer

• Work on structurally significant transportation and infrastructure projects.
• Collaboration with a multicultural, multidisciplinary team and access to BIM, automation and parametric design tools.
• Training, career growth and a competitive package with flexible working arrangements and the possibility of remote work.
• An inclusive workplace and, depending on employment status, benefits such as medical, dental, vision, life and disability cover, paid leave, retirement savings plan and employee stock purchase plan.
