Most structural engineers don't. But here, you will.\nThis isn't the kind of job where you're stuck behind a desk, cranking out the same designs every day.\nHere you'll dig into failures, and analyze what went wrong.\nOne day it's a collapsed roof, the next a construction failure. You'll get the autonomy to run your own investigations, set your own schedule, and write reports from wherever suits you best - with all the stability and benefits of full-time W-2 employment.\nYou don't need to come from a Forensics background. If you have your PE and enjoy field work, they'll train you on the rest.\nIt's not for everyone. If you hate climbing ladders or getting your hands dirty, this probably isn't for you. But if you're an engineer who loves solving puzzles and values autonomy? The math works out pretty well. Tenured folks in this niche regularly clear $200k+.\nWhat You Need\nLicensed Engineer (PE) in Civil/Structural Engineering\nCurious, analytical, confident in making and defending conclusions\nAbility to write clear, concise reports\nComfortable with fieldwork and local travel (overnights & CAT work are limited)\nAbout the company\nAn established forensic engineering firm that's built a reputation on letting engineers actually engineer.
