Structural Designer

Structural Design Technician

At Jacobs, we're challenging today to reinvent tomorrow by solving the world's most critical problems for thriving cities, resilient environments, mission-critical outcomes, operational advancement, scientific discovery and cutting-edge manufacturing, turning abstract ideas into realities that transform the world for good.

Your impact

We are looking for a Structural Design Technician to join our Project Delivery team supporting advanced facilities projects. In this role, you'll play a critical part in turning engineering concepts into high-quality structural models and construction documents using 2D and 3D (Revit/BIM) tools.

This is more than a drafting role—you'll be an active contributor to the design process, collaborating closely with Structural Engineers, multi-disciplinary teams, and construction partners. If you enjoy ownership of your work, problem-solving, and continuous improvement, this role offers strong opportunities for growth.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop structural models and construction deliverables using Revit and AutoCAD, with a focus on steel and concrete structures
• Create structural models from scratch based on sketches, redlines, and verbal direction from engineers
• Coordinate structural designs with other disciplines using clash detection tools
• Incorporate and manage electronic redlines following established workflows
• Take full ownership of your assigned structural scope, ensuring alignment with schedule, budget, and quality standards
• Perform self-checks and coordinate design packages to minimize conflicts
• Provide support and informal mentoring to junior designers when needed
• Participate in quality reviews to ensure compliance with project and structural standards
• Actively contribute to improving workflows, tools, and design automation initiatives

Here's what you'll need

Minimum Qualifications

• High School Diploma or equivalent
• At least 2 years of structural drafting/design experience
• College coursework in Revit or 1+ year hands-on Revit experience
• Minimum 1 year of AutoCAD experience
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Ability to work effectively with diverse teams

Preferred Qualifications

• Associate's degree in Computer-Aided Drafting or equivalent
• Experience with steel and concrete structural systems
• Background in industrial, semiconductor, or large-scale facilities projects
