Structural Engineer

Full-Time

Boca Raton, FL

• In Person$90,000 – $130,000 / year

Most structural engineers spend their first five years running calculations someone else stamps. At CDN, you'll work directly with the Principal PE on every project — production developments, custom estates, value engineering studies. Your analysis. Your name in the documents. Real responsibility from day one.

What you'll do

• –Design and analyze structural systems for residential projects across South Florida — from 200-unit production developments to waterfront custom homes
• –Perform wind load analysis, foundation design, and shoring/reshoring calculations for HVHZ and flood zone compliance
• –Conduct value engineering studies — evaluating alternative materials, structural systems, and construction methods to reduce client costs without sacrificing code compliance
• –Prepare permit-ready construction documents, shop drawing reviews, and structural inspection reports
• –Collaborate directly with the PE on every project — no layers between you and the work
• –Manage multiple projects simultaneously with full ownership of your deliverables
• –Build deep expertise in FBC 8th Edition, ASCE 7, and South Florida’s unique regulatory environment

What you'll need

• –Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering or related field
• –PE license preferred (EI/FE actively working toward PE welcome)
• –Proficiency in AutoCAD and Bluebeam (RISA, ETABS, or similar analysis software a plus)
• –Residential structural design experience strongly preferred
• –Comfort working in South Florida’s regulatory environment (HVHZ, flood zones, FBC) — or genuine eagerness to learn it
• –The kind of engineer who takes ownership of their work, not just their tasks
