Senior Structural Engineer | High-Visibility Career Opportunity

Oklahoma City Area

Are you a Senior Structural Engineer who is ready to take the next step in your career?

We're looking for an experienced structural engineer who wants more than a traditional engineering role—someone who wants to become a key player in a growing organization, take on meaningful responsibility, and build a path toward Project Management.

The Opportunity

This is a high-visibility career opportunity for a Senior Structural Engineer who wants meaningful responsibility, direct exposure to leadership, and a clear path toward project management.

You'll work alongside experienced engineers and project leaders while having the opportunity to take ownership of projects, work directly with clients, contribute to technical decisions, and develop the leadership skills needed to move into an Assistant Project Manager / Project Manager role within approximately 2–3 years.

This position offers a diverse mix of approximately:

65% Structural Design | 35% Investigative / Forensic Engineering

You'll have the opportunity to work across multiple aspects of the business rather than being limited to a narrow role.

Why This Opportunity?

This is an opportunity to have a meaningful voice in projects and work directly with experienced leadership and clients.

If you're a Senior Engineer who feels ready to move beyond simply completing assigned design work, you'll have the opportunity to expand into:

Client management
