THE OPPORTUNITY
The Structural Engineer will support a large, geographically diverse multifamily portfolio (100+ properties) by providing in-house structural expertise focused on upgrades, infill projects, asset rehabilitation, and issue resolution. The position owns structural issues end-to-end: from initial identification and risk prioritization through development and delivery of stamped drawings, specifications, repair details, and cost estimates required for permitting, bidding, and execution by internal construction teams. The Structural Engineer acts as the primary technical bridge between operations, asset management, and construction — translating field conditions into clear scopes, reviewing contractor means/methods, and providing construction-phase support. The position is hands-on, field-oriented, and heavily focused on existing buildings. As the portfolio grows, the role will expand to include structural design support for select ground-up developments.
**This position includes 20% travel to the different properties, including overnight**
