Structural Designer & Engineer
LanceSoft, Inc., Bessemer, AL, United States
Strong technical background in BIM driven structural design for industrialized and modern construction systems.
Demonstrated experience contributing to innovation-focused projects, including development of new products, systems, workflows, or construction methodologies.
Proven ability to generate and implement innovative ideas, improving design efficiency, constructability, automation, or manufacturing integration.
Background working in new project development, pilot programs, or early stage project environments where requirements evolve rapidly.
Comfortable operating in a startup-like or entrepreneurial environment, characterized by fast decision-making, limited precedent, and high ownership.
Ability to bridge architectural BIM models and fabrication-ready manufacturing outputs, aligning engineering rigor with speed and flexibility.
Strong collaborator with the ability to communicate and work with cross-functional disciplines, including Engineering, BIM, Business, Finance, Architectural, Manufacturing, and Innovation.
High attention to detail, balanced with a solution-oriented and forward-thinking mindset.
Effective communicator capable of translating technical concepts into actionable inputs for fabrication, automation, and production teams.
Self-starter, hands-on and collaborative in achieving results
Able to distill, package, and present complex information in a clear, concise, and compelling manner
Process and goal-oriented while comfortable with complexity and ambiguity
Education
Bachelor’s degree in Structural, Mechanical, or Civil Engineering with 1-3 years experience.
OR
3-year degree for CAD Design with 5-7 years of experience
Advanced degree desirable, but not required.
Key Required Competencies and Experience
Typically 3–7 years of professional experience in structural engineering with a strong BIM focus.
Hands-on experience with light gauge steel (CFS) framing systems.
Proficient in Vertex BD and/or Revit, familiarity with Sketchup or Frame builder is also advantageous.
Direct involvement in innovation-driven projects, such as:
New system or product development
Digital transformation or automation initiatives
Pilot or proof of concept construction projects
Experience working in startup, scaleup, or innovation-led environments, including exposure to:
Ambiguous or evolving project requirements
Rapid iteration and design optimization
Cross-functional collaboration beyond traditional engineering roles
Exposure to industrialized, modular, panelized, or offsite construction methods.
Experience supporting projects from conceptual design through fabrication and manufacturing.
Prior involvement in multidisciplinary project teams, collaborating with architects, MEP engineers, and fabrication partners.
Excellent spoken and written communication skills
