Senior Bridge Engineer
$130,000 - $155,000
Permanent
Long Island, New York
Stop doing back-office design work. Start owning projects.
We’re partnered with a well-established, multi-disciplinary engineering firm to hire a Senior Structural Engineer who wants more than just calculations and redlines.
If you’re a NY PE with 7–15 years’ experience and ready to step into a role where you lead projects, work directly with clients, and build real credibility in the NY market, this is that move.
Why This Role Stands Out
- You’ll lead, not just support
Take ownership of bridge design and inspection work — not sit behind someone else’s markups
- Strong public-sector exposure
Work on projects with NYCDOT, NYSDOT, and MTA
- Full project lifecycle
From inspection and design through to construction support
- Stable pipeline, real projects
Backed by long-term agency relationships and consistent infrastructure work
- Multi-disciplinary environment
Collaborate with in-house civil, structural, and construction teams
- Clear step into senior-level credibility
Position yourself for PM and leadership progression
What You’ll Be Doing
- Lead structural analysis and design for bridge and transportation structures
- Manage and deliver bridge inspection and rehabilitation assignments
- Act as Lead Designer on small to mid-sized projects
- Carry out site investigations and field inspections
- Support construction phase services, resolving RFIs and field issues
- Prepare and review calculations, drawings, and technical specs
- Coordinate with internal teams and external stakeholders
What They’re Looking For
- B.S. in Civil or Structural Engineering
- 7–15 years of structural engineering experience
- New York PE required (NJ PE a plus)
- Bridge design and/or inspection experience
- Familiarity with NYCDOT / NYSDOT / NJDOT standards
- Strong technical grounding in structural design and analysis
- Experience with structural software + AutoCAD (Revit a plus)
- Someone who wants to take ownership and grow into leadership
