Structural Engineer

Engineer – Junior to Mid-level This position requires an active Top Secret clearance or the ability to obtain a Top Secret clearance to be considered. The engineer must provide guidance with regard to blast effects vulnerabilities and protective designs on existing structures and facilities under design and construction; technical support at blast mitigation testing; expertise in the field of structural engineering research involving design and construction of structures in the area of blast mitigation; computer modeling of structures and the effects of structures due to dynamic loading. Experience and user-level ability and skills in CAD, USAGE Blast modeling software (BlastX), Graphing/plotting, and office productivity software. Compensation & Benefits Estimated Starting Salary Range for Engineer – Junior to Mid-level: $95k - $150K Pay commensurate with experience. Full time benefits include Medical, Dental, Vision, 401K, and other possible benefits as provided. Benefits are subject to change with or without notice. Engineer – Junior To Mid-level Responsibilities Include • Assist in research, development, testing, and evaluation of forced entry, ballistic, vehicle anti-ram, and blast-resistant technologies, materials, designs, and construction systems. • Provide input on design standards, protective materials, and construction methods for existing structures, buildings under construction, and new building designs. • Support the design and construction of blast-resistant buildings and the implementation of blast mitigation measures for existing facilities. • Contribute to the development and improvement of anti-ram vehicle barriers and structural elements that enhance forced entry and ballistic resistance. • Offer guidance on blast effect vulnerabilities and protective designs for existing and new structures. • Participate in technical support for blast mitigation testing and related field activities. • Utilize structural engineering research methods to support the design and construction of blast-resistant infrastructure. • Perform computer modeling of structural responses to dynamic loading events. • Apply software tools such as CAD, BlastX (USACE), graphing/plotting programs, and standard office productivity software. • Lead research and development efforts in physical protection systems for overseas facilities against terrorist attacks. • Design and oversee implementation of blast-resistant structures for both new construction and upgrades to existing buildings. • Develop and evaluate anti-ram vehicle barrier systems to improve standoff distances from potential explosive threats. • Design advanced structural elements to enhance protection against forced entry and ballistic threats. • Provide technical guidance on blast vulnerabilities and protective solutions for both existing and in-design facilities. • Deliver support during blast testing activities and interpret results for application to real-world structures. • Conduct advanced structural modeling and simulations related to dynamic and blast loading using specialized software. • Maintain working knowledge and practical use of CAD, BlastX (USACE), graphing/plotting tools, and general office software. • Collaborate with industry committees and standards bodies; active membership in ASCE’s Blast, Shock, and Vibratory Committee and ASTM is preferred. • Performs other job-related duties as assigned Skills Engineer – Junior to Mid-level Experience, Education, Skills, Abilities requested: • Bachelor of Science in Engineering Technology, Construction Management, Mechanical, Structural, or Civil Engineering from an accredited university is required. • Junior-Level Engineer: Minimum of three (3) years of relevant experience, specifically in the design, fabrication, and construction of forced entry/ballistic resistant (FE/BR) and blast mitigation systems. • Mid-Level Engineer: Minimum of seven (7) years of hands-on experience in blast mitigation and/or anti-ram desig
