We are a firm that does things a little differently. This is your opportunity to join our high‑calibre, experienced group of professionals on a mission to re‑imagine the future by changing the way that buildings are conceived and constructed.Position Structural Engineer – Computational Design based in Toronto, Calgary, or Vancouver. This project‑focused role delivers structural engineering solutions on live projects while leveraging computational design techniques to enhance design quality, accelerate workflows, and optimise building performance for our clients.What will you do? Your day‑to‑day work will centre on structural engineering project delivery, enhanced by computational design capabilities.Perform structural engineering design and calculations for columns, beams, slabs, foundations, and lateral systems across all project stages—from concept through construction.Design and engineer using structural steel, concrete, masonry, cold‑formed steel, and timber.Coordinate engineering drawings and contract documents in collaboration with BIM technologists and project teams.Attend and lead design meetings with project teams and clients to resolve structural challenges and provide status updates.Review architectural, mechanical, electrical, and structural drawings for coordination and constructability.Contribute to project planning, scheduling, resource discussions, and cost monitoring with Project Managers.Computational Design & AutomationDevelop parametric models and scripts to automate structural engineering workflows, geometry generation, and analysis integration.Create and customise tools and plugins that connect design‑to‑analysis platforms, including interoperability between Revit and engineering analysis software (SAP2000, ETABS, RAM, RFEM, Sofistik).Collaborate with engineers and designers to translate complex structural design requirements into computational solutions using Grasshopper, Revit, Python, and C#.Build reusable workflows, templates, and component libraries that accelerate project delivery and enable knowledge sharing across the firm.Support quality assurance by developing validation checks,
reviewing computational outputs, and ensuring design accuracy.Mentor junior staff on both structural design and computational techniques to maintain quality standards.Identify and implement emerging computational design techniques that advance the firm’s capabilities and project performance.Contribute to the development of standard details, specifications, and drawing standards, including Revit standards in coordination with the BIM team.RequirementsBSc in Structural Engineering, Civil Engineering, or Architectural Engineering (MSc considered an asset).Professional engineering status (P.Eng.) or eligibility for licensure in the applicable Canadian province.Minimum 3‑7 years of professional experience in structural engineering, including hands‑on design and analysis work on building projects from concept through construction.Demonstrated experience delivering structural projects across a range of scales and materials (steel, concrete, masonry, wood).Solid proficiency in structural engineering design and analysis tools: SAP2000, ETABS, RAM, RFEM, Sofistik, or equivalent.Proficiency in Revit and working knowledge of BIM coordination workflows.Working knowledge of Python and/or C# with the ability to write scripts and automate workflows, or strong motivation to develop these skills with on‑the‑job support.Exposure to parametric modelling or computational design techniques (Grasshopper, Dynamo, or equivalent)—even at a foundational level.Knowledge of applicable building codes (NBCC, CSA, provincial codes).Excellent communication skills—both verbal and written—with the ability to translate between engineering, design,
and client teams.Strong project management capability with a track record of delivering projects on time and on budget.Nice to HavePortfolio or examples demonstrating computational design work applied to structural projects.Experience with Dynamo for Revit automation.Experience leading or mentoring junior engineers or technicians.Knowledge and interest related to embodied carbon and sustainable structural design.Familiarity with digital fabrication workflows or advanced BIM coordination.Benefits We believe in rewarding the expertise and dedication that drives our success.Competitive base salary:$73,000 – $100,000 (aligned with experience, qualifications, and education)Profit‑sharing:An above‑market, performance‑based annual profit‑sharing program with a strong track record of meaningful payouts.Retirement:RRSP matching up to 5%Health & wellness:Employer‑paid health insurance, comprehensive wellness program, and generous parental leave.Time off:Generous vacation plan based on experience.Culture & community:Team‑building activities, social events, and a supportive environment where we celebrate success together.About the Ennovation Team The Ennovation team is our dedicated group focused on advancing the firm’s technology capabilities and modernising workflows. They are the key enablers of our Digital Strategy. As part of this team, you will work on high‑impact projects while contributing to the development of reusable tools and processes that elevate the entire firm. Your work will support our strategic initiative to integrate computational design into standard project delivery, enabling faster iteration, better optimisation, and improved collaboration between design and engineering disciplines.About Entuitive We are deeply committed to fostering an inclusive, equitable, and accessible environment where all employees and clients feel valued, respected, and supported. Entuitive will ensure that reasonable accommodations are made to persons with disabilities during the recruitment and assessment processes.At Entuitive, we prioritise human‑centric evaluation methods and do not utilise AI for screening or recruitment processes.#J-18808-Ljbffr
