Lakewood, United States DL ENGINEERING INC. Full time
Job DescriptionJob Description

We are looking for the energetic, take-charge, strategic mind of a structural engineer who wants to make a difference. Our clients and projects are diverse with plenty of interesting challenges that need your help. Our company has a lot going on and we’re setting a new standard for how engineering firms do business. We need an engineer who is ready to jump in head first.

Who are we?

The job doesn’t matter if the company is not a place you want to work.

DL Engineering Inc.

  • We are a full-service engineering services and consulting firm in Lakewood Colorado. Our team provides structural engineering services to architects, general contractors, homeowners, and developers. Our services include new construction and remodeling of residential and small commercial projects. We believe clients deserve quality engineering solutions promptly.
  • We believe engineers have the highest responsibility to serve others with honesty and integrity
  • We believe life is too short to work with jerks, so we don’t and won’t
  • We obsess about identifying the right solution for any given problem through engineering
  • We believe in building a team of people who can think and act for themselves in the best interest of others
  • We believe in people who go out of their way to do the right thing when no one else is watching.

We are a team of individuals committed to their craft, not employees who punch clocks. Everyone at DL Engineering works hard, collaborates with clients, and proactively responds to the needs of others. We believe in working together as a committed community to get results for each other and our clients.

Who are you?

If you like working in a fluid and fast-paced organization that is growing into a leader in the structural and forensic engineering field; and if you would enjoy helping us figure out how to push our limits to get there, we could be a good fit. If you are looking for a consistent set of clear repetitive tasks to perform and be told how to perform your work, please do not apply – we don’t see work the same way.

If you enjoy meaningful work, the opportunity to further develop your craft, and collaboratively working with other engineers and clients with the authority to proactively drive results, we might be a good fit.

The ideal candidate loves to serve others. This position is for someone who wants to leverage their talents, skills, and knowledge as well as actively seek out the talents, skills, and knowledge of others unselfishly for the overall success of the project.

You are a fit if you have:

  • 2+ years of structural design experience post-graduation, preferably in residential design.
  • Civil/Structural Engineering degree from an accredited institution.
  • EIT certification (required) or PE license (preferred).
  • Proficient in AutoCAD LT.
  • Strong understanding of load paths in structures, timber, steel, concrete, and lateral design. You’re familiar with International Residential Code (IRC) and International Building Code (IBC).
  • You are looking for a company where you will make a significant impact as an important and equal team member, not as a simple “worker”.
  • A drive to serve others.
  • A highly proactive and highly detail-orientated demeanor.
  • A solid grasp of English and writing.

We could be a good fit for each other. You MUST be highly proactive and assert yourself as an equal team member with everyone else that you support on our team. We need you to be a self-managed adult who will TELL US what needs to happen. We do not need followers – we all lead from our areas of expertise, and we also want that from you. The ideal candidate loves to serve others and make OTHERS successful - this is what leaders do, and people deeply respect them for that serving/leading approach to life.

What will you do?

  • You don’t just work here, you get out of bed and come to the office because you want to support others by offering your craft to help move projects and clients forward.
  • Demonstrate our values of integrity, quality, dependability, and client first. Unfortunately, too many engineering businesses are unresponsive to their client’s needs. Your interactions with them will remind our clients that they come first and that their needs are important to us.
  • Be an Engineer - Support clients by creating structural drawings and designs using AutoCAD LT for residential and commercial structures including foundation plans, framing plans, sections, and details. Be familiar with timber, steel, concrete member sizing, and lateral system design. Perform job site observations and inspections.
  • Be a client advocate – Support clients as they define the scope of their project and educate them on how you can support them.
  • You will take the time to focus on the details yet balance it with the need to maximize efficiencies to complete work quickly. We want you to proactively look around and see how you can make things better.
  • You will be an integral part of the DL Engineering community and our business, will attend our regular team meetings for planning and strategy, and will be expected to chime right in as if you owned the place.
