Resident Structural Engineer, Modular R&D

Own the structural systems of the modular product on the line, frames, enclosures, and lifting and transport structures, from released drawings through rate production.

Live on the Phoenix manufacturing line: walk the floor daily, catch fit-up and weld issues at the station where they happen, and disposition them on the spot.

Run structural support for the factory in real time, answering RFIs same-day from the floor and engineering fixes into the next revision, not a someday backlog.

Run first-article reviews and fit checks in person as units come down the line, with findings documented tightly enough to drive drawing changes.

Close the loop to design: feed what the line learns back into drawings, tolerances, and the BOM so the same issue never surfaces twice.

The below is a starting point. We always make space for exceptional people, so if you don't fit this role exactly, tell us where you would.

You've engineered structures for complex physical products, modular construction, or heavy fabrication, hands-on, not from a review desk.

You've worked on a shop floor or fabrication line, and dispositioning a nonconformance with the line waiting is familiar work: use-as-is, rework, or stop, decided in the moment and defensible afterward.

Your drawings build clean. Fabricators rarely call, and when they do, you fix the drawing rather than explain it away.

You've supported production launches of your own designs and stayed with them through the ugly early units.

You iterate fast without losing configuration control: every floor fix lands back in the drawing, the tolerance stack, or the BOM.

Bonus: PE license, steel and sheet metal design, structural detailing standards (AISC, AWS), weld inspection or NDE familiarity, and DFM instincts.

We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
