Our client, an established privately held industrial and commercial construction contractor, headquartered in Louisiana is seeking a Precast Engineer to support the structural design, analysis, and production of precast and prestressed concrete systems.
This position involves preparing engineering calculations, reviewing shop and erection drawings, and coordinating with detailing, production, quality, and field teams. Projects include beams, columns, wall panels, piles, underground utility trenches, electrical and communication duct banks, and deep foundation systems.
The selected candidate will help ensure designs are accurate, practical to fabricate, and compliant with applicable codes and standards. Engineers who are not yet professionally licensed will work under the responsible charge of a licensed Professional Engineer.
Work Schedule
The assigned work schedule will be discussed during the hiring process. The role includes coordination with production personnel and an engineering presence in the fabrication yard.
Key Responsibilities
* Perform structural design and analysis of precast and prestressed concrete elements and related systems.
* Design and evaluate specialty concrete systems, including utility trenches, duct banks, and precast or prestressed piles.
* Prepare and review engineering calculations, shop drawings, and erection drawings for accuracy and constructability.
* Verify that fabrication matches engineering design intent and identify deviations before concrete is cast.
* Coordinate corrections with detailing, production, quality, and field personnel.
* Review and respond to requests for information, submittals, and design revisions throughout the project lifecycle.
* Ensure designs comply with applicable codes and standards, including IBC, ACI, and PCI requirements.
* Support value engineering efforts to improve production efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
* Provide technical support during fabrication and field erection.
* Troubleshoot design, fabrication, and constructability issues.
* Guide and train detailing personnel to maintain alignment with engineering design intent.
* Manage multiple assignments, prioritize work, and meet project deadlines.

* Candidates with at least four years of structural engineering experience designing buildings, foundations, or related products may also be considered.
* PCI-specific practices will be taught on the job.
* Knowledge of prestressed concrete behavior, load paths, connection design, and erection stability.
* Familiarity with underground and buried structure design, including soil interaction, durability, and loading conditions.
* Experience using structural design and analysis software such as ETABS, Tekla Tedds, Eriksson Technologies, or similar platforms.
* Understanding of precast production processes, erection practices, and lifting design considerations.
* Strong communication, organization, and problem-solving skills.
* Attention to detail and a practical focus on constructability and efficiency.
* Successful completion of required pre-employment drug screening, physical testing, and onboarding.
Preferred Background
* At least four years of structural engineering experience with design exposure to prestressed and/or precast concrete.
