GTI Fabrication

Overview

GTI is a contract manufacturing partner supporting customers in renewable energy, power generation, infrastructure, and industrial systems. The Staff Structural Engineer will serve as a senior technical authority across multiple programs, focusing on structural design methodology and system-level performance.

Responsibilities

• Define and own the structural design approach across multiple programs and product lines.
• Establish standard methodologies for analysis, load cases, and structural modeling.
• Ensure consistency in structural design across BESS, modular data centers, and GenSet platforms.
• Operate as design lead and technical authority across concurrent engineering programs.
• Develop, maintain, and improve structural design standards, connection libraries, and calculation templates.
• Standardize weld details, bolted connections, and structural systems for repeatability and scalability.
• Drive reuse of proven design solutions across programs.
• Improve structural design standards, analysis templates, and calculation methodologies used by the engineering team.
• Lead resolution of complex, ambiguous structural challenges impacting multiple projects.
• Make engineering judgments on non-standard or undefined design conditions.
• Provide technical direction on advanced structural analysis and design scenarios.
• Support root cause analysis for structural failures and implement long-term corrective actions.
• Drive structural designs that optimize fabrication, assembly, and system integration.
• Reduce manufacturing variation through standardized and production-aligned design practices.
• Partner with Mechanical, Electrical, and Manufacturing Engineering to improve build efficiency, cost, and throughput.
• Support continuous improvement of DFM practices across structural deliverables.
• Influence engineering direction across multiple teams and programs.
• Serve as the bridge between engineering leadership and individual contributors.
• Manage structural design interfaces with mechanical and electrical disciplines to ensure coordinated and manufacturable solutions.
• Partner with Engineering, Manufacturing, Quality, and Supply Chain to align structural decisions with business objectives.
• Support new product introduction (NPI) with scalable and repeatable structural solutions.
• Enforce structural engineering standards and best practices across the organization.
• Review and approve critical calculations and designs across multiple teams.
• Perform code reviews for structural compliance.
• Ensure compliance with AISC, ASCE, IBC, and internal engineering standards.
• Review and QC drawings and calculation packages prior to release, ensuring completeness, accuracy, and compliance.
• Lead initiatives to optimize structural designs for cost, weight, and material efficiency across product lines.
• Improve structural performance, durability, and manufacturability.
• Identify opportunities for innovation in materials, design approaches, and fabrication methods.
• Directly supervise structural engineers across multiple levels, providing technical guidance, workload direction, and performance feedback.
• Serve as a technical mentor and resource for the structural engineering team.
• Shape skill development roadmaps and engineering process improvements.
• Influence hiring decisions, onboarding, and performance evaluation processes for the structural team.
• Lead and facilitate engineering design meetings including kick-offs, design reviews, coordination meetings, and milestone gate reviews.
• Interface directly with customers on structural scope, design intent, and technical constraints.
• Work closely with the Technical Director on high-complexity structural challenges and engineering initiatives.
• Stamp and seal structural drawings and calculations where PE licensure applies.
