About the Role
TYLin is seeking an accomplished Senior Structural Engineer to join our growing Rail + Transit Structural Engineering team in New York City. This role offers an outstanding opportunity for an experienced structural professional who takes pride in technical excellence, enjoys mentoring and supporting developing engineers, and is ready to take the next step into greater project ownership and leadership. Based in our New York office, you will serve as a key technical resource delivering structural design solutions for some of the region’s most complex transit infrastructure programs, working in close partnership with Project Managers and multidisciplinary teams to produce high-quality structural designs for major clients including the MTA, Amtrak, LIRR, and Metro-North. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys being deeply engaged in design, providing guidance to others, and helping deliver transformative transportation projects across the NYC metro area.
Responsibilities
- Provide senior-level structural design and technical input for major rail + transit facilities, including stations, maintenance facilities, service buildings, coachyards, and right-of-way structures.
- Serve as a trusted technical resource on project teams, supporting design decisions and resolving complex structural challenges.
- Produce and review structural calculations, drawings, specifications, and reports to ensure alignment with TYLin’s high standards and industry best practices.
- Mentor and support junior engineers and designers, fostering growth through technical guidance, collaboration, and thoughtful feedback.
- Lead structural tasks and project components independently, coordinating closely with Project Managers to support successful delivery.
- Perform structural analysis and design using steel, reinforced concrete, and masonry systems, including consideration of seismic and dynamic loading where applicable.
- Support field investigations, condition assessments, and feasibility studies for existing and new transit infrastructure.
- Collaborate with multidisciplinary partners (architecture, civil, mechanical, electrical, systems) to integrate structural solutions within active transit environments.
- Participate in client coordination meetings, contributing technical expertise and helping maintain alignment with stakeholder expectations and operational needs.
Requirements
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Civil or Structural Engineering.
- Demonstrated structural engineering design experience, ideally focused on rail, transit, transportation, or industrial facilities.
- Experience delivering structural designs for major transit agencies such as MTA C&D, Amtrak, LIRR, Metro-North, or similar organizations would be advantageous but is not essential.
- Strong technical command of steel and concrete structural systems and familiarity with applicable codes and standards including AREMA, AASHTO, IBC, and NYC-specific requirements.
- Proficiency with structural analysis tools such as SAP2000, ETABS, RAM, or similar.
- Experience working in BIM/CAD environments including Revit, MicroStation, AutoCAD, or comparable platforms.
- New York PE license required (SE or additional licensure is a plus).
- A collaborative mindset, strong communication skills, and the ability to partner effectively with Project Managers and multidisciplinary teams.
- A passion for design quality, mentorship, and contributing to impactful infrastructure that improves mobility and communities.
