Sr Structural Engineer - King of Prussia - The Masons Group
Description
Sr Structural Engineer - Forensic Analysis(Relocation Available)
This position involves advanced engineering work across structural and civil disciplines, with a primary emphasis on forensic investigation, failure analysis, and structural performance evaluation. The role includes analyzing building and structural failures, reconstructing accidents, and assessing damage to buildings, infrastructure, and civil-structural systems resulting from construction defects, environmental events, or safety incidents.
The ideal candidate brings strong structural engineering experience, sound forensic judgment, and the ability to interpret complex engineering conditions in both field investigations and legal contexts. While exposure to transportation or infrastructure systems is beneficial, deep structural engineering expertise is essential for success in this role.
This role blends forensic structural engineering, failure investigation, and accident analysis. Formal training in accident investigation and reconstruction will be provided upon hire.
