Structural Engineering EIT

LB Engineering
Fort Myers, Florida
Full Time | 100 Percent In Office

LB Engineering is seeking a hungry, driven Structural Engineering EIT with 6 months to 3 years of structural experience to join our Fort Myers office. Must have passed FE exam.

This is not a remote role. This is 100 percent in office. We believe strong teams are built through collaboration, speed, accountability, and alignment.

This is an opportunity for early career engineers who want real responsibility, real exposure, and real growth inside a fast moving structural engineering firm.

Job Overview

We are seeking a highly motivated and detail oriented Structural Engineer EIT to support project design, analysis, and coordination across a wide range of structural projects.

The ideal candidate will assist licensed Professional Engineers with structural design, calculations, modeling, and documentation while contributing to innovative and practical engineering solutions.

This position requires a strong foundation in structural engineering principles, fluency in structural software, and a commitment to quality and precision.

What We Are Looking For

We are not looking for someone who wants to coast.

We are looking for someone who wants to grow fast, take ownership, and strengthen our team.

Structural engineering experience is a must. This is not a general civil position. Direct exposure to structural systems, load paths, detailing, and analysis is required.

Candidates must have 1 to 3 years of experience working specifically in structural engineering.

Responsibilities

  • Assist licensed Professional Engineers with structural design and analysis
  • Prepare structural calculations, technical reports, and documentation
  • Develop structural plans, details, and construction drawings
  • Perform structural modeling and analysis using RISA, ETABS, SAP2000, or similar platforms
  • Assist with finite element analysis and system evaluations
  • Coordinate structural systems with architectural, mechanical, and civil disciplines
  • Collaborate with project managers, drafters, and construction teams
  • Participate in internal design meetings and constructability discussions
  • Support project scheduling, material specifications, and cost estimating efforts
  • Conduct site visits and assist with field observations as needed

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree: in Civil Engineering or related field
  • EIT certification: required
  • Experience: 1 to 3 years of structural engineering experience required
  • Strong understanding: of load paths, structural systems, and detailing principles
  • Proficiency: in structural analysis software such as RISA, ETABS, SAP2000 or similar
  • Working knowledge: of AutoCAD and Revit required
  • Strong attention: to detail and accuracy
  • Ability: to work full time in our Fort Myers office
  • Strong communication skills: and ability to work in a fast paced team environment

Interview Process

All candidates should be prepared to complete a technical assessment as part of the interview process.

This assessment is designed to gauge your structural fluency, problem solving ability, and understanding of core engineering fundamentals. We take technical competency seriously.

Culture Fit

We are building something significant. We are growing. We move fast.

We are looking for individuals who are:

  • Driven
  • Accountable
  • Solution oriented
  • Detail focused
  • Team players
  • Willing to take ownership

If you are looking for comfort, this is not it.
If you are looking for growth, exposure, and opportunity, we would love to meet you.
