As a Professional Engineer, or Professional Structural Engineer, you'll play a crucial role in ensuring the stability and safety of communication structures. Your responsibilities will include assessing the strength of existing towers—such as guyed, self-supporting, and monopoles—to determine their load capacity. You'll then prepare detailed reports outlining their capabilities and proposing modifications to enhance their resilience.
Alongside these tasks, you'll review incoming service requests to determine appropriate actions and provide guidance on field inspection reports, recommending necessary repairs or upgrades. Education and mentorship will be part of your role too, as you help younger engineers learn and review work for quality. Furthermore, you'll contribute to project reviews and designs with analyzing building rooftops, water tanks, and elevated equipment platforms. This position is remote so having good time management and communication skills is the key to success for this role!
What Will You Do
- Evaluate service requests to ensure they contain sufficient information for completion.
- Examine tower structures and foundations across existing, proposed, and tenant configurations.
- Conduct analyses on projects with low-to-high complexity using manual calculations, structural software, and approved methods.
- Collaborate with administrative and CADD teams to finalize necessary documentation.
- Contribute to the design of telecommunications infrastructure modifications, reinforcements, and foundations.
- Adhere strictly to safety protocols and OSHA regulations.
- Provide guidance and training to junior engineers.
- Address structure-related inquiries from internal and external stakeholders.
- Prepare mandated engineering calculation reports.
- Stay updated on emerging technical advancements and trends in telecommunications engineering.
