About Metal Building Industries: Metal Building Industries (MBI) is a national provider of

pre-engineered metal building systems (PEMBs)

and structural steel solutions for complex commercial construction projects. We specialize in delivering

custom, non-standard structures —not just basic “box” buildings—through a collaborative, design-driven, turn-key approach.

Due to rapid growth and increasing RFP volume, we are expanding our team by embedding

sales engineering expertise directly into our sales process .

The Opportunity: We’re hiring a

Metal Building Sales Engineer

to serve as the

technical resource within our sales team . We are a small, focused, but geographically distributed team, so this opportunity is

available as either in-office or remote role .

This is

not a quota-carrying or commissioned sales role . Instead, you’ll own the

engineering strategy behind winning projects —developing preliminary designs, guiding value engineering, and helping shape competitive proposals for complex PEMB and structural steel projects.

You’ll work directly with company leadership (including the CEO) and play a visible role in influencing project wins and company growth.

What You’ll Do: Develop

preliminary structural designs, layouts, and concepts

for PEMBs and hybrid steel structures Produce

accurate material takeoffs, cost inputs, and estimates

using tools like MBS, RISA-3D, and Excel Lead

technical scoping and solution development

during RFQs/RFPs Partner with sales, architects, contractors, and owners to

translate project requirements into engineered solutions Provide

value engineering recommendations

to improve cost, constructability, and performance Review

drawings, specs, and bid documents

to identify risks and opportunities Participate in

client meetings and presentations

as the technical subject matter expert Ensure designs align with

IBC, ASCE 7, AISC , and applicable local codes Support

handoff to operations/engineering teams

post-award Contribute to

process improvements, automation tools, and engineering best practices

Required Qualifications: Bachelor’s degree in Civil or Structural Engineering 7+ years of structural engineering experience , including: 3+ years in metal building (PEMB) design Experience with

Metal Building Software (MBS)

(required) Proficiency in structural/design tools such as: Bluebeam (For Schematic Designs) MBS (Primary Engineering Tool) RISA-3D & EnerCALC (For additional engineering tasks) Tekla Structures (For 3D model creation/manipulation) Strong knowledge of: Structural steel systems Load calculations (wind, seismic) Building codes (IBC, xsgimln ASCE 7, AISC) PE license or EIT certification

Preferred Qualifications: Experience supporting

preconstruction, estimating, or design-build sales environments Familiarity with

value engineering in competitive bid scenarios Exposure to

complex or non-standard PEMB structures Strong communication skills with both

technical and non-technical stakeholders

What Success Looks Like: High-quality, accurate preliminary designs that improve

win rates Effective collaboration with sales to

differentiate proposals Faster turnaround on RFQs without sacrificing technical rigor Clear communication of complex engineering concepts to clients
