About the Role

ICON is seeking a Staff Structural Engineer to own and advance structural engineering as a product development discipline. This role translates deep structural expertise into requirements, rulesets, and technical resources for ICON's building products and systems, ensuring they are designable, verifiable, and executable at scale. You will serve as ICON's primary structural product development authority, developing the structural engineering logic into requirements, tools, and technical guidance for ICON’s Divisions, Customers, and external partners to deliver cutting-edge printed structures with precision and confidence.

Responsibilities

  • Serve as ICON's primary structural engineering subject matter expert for its Building Products and Systems, providing senior-level technical input and direction.
  • Develop, maintain, and evolve structural engineering requirements, design standards, and calculations as ICON's structural system configurations and product portfolio expand.
  • Act as a structural technical resource for complex structural questions from cross-functional teams, escalated customer engagements, and development partners.
  • Ensure structural engineering product development work maintains alignment with applicable structural building codes and design standards (ACI, ASCE, TMS etc.).
  • Ensure appropriate product testing for code compliance and product requirements testing are sufficiently scoped and defined.
  • Serve as the primary structural technical escalation point for ICON’s Building Products & Systems.
  • Resolve structural questions and out-of-spec conditions that exceed the independent resolution capacity of ICON’s customer support teams.
  • Interface with the Building Regulatory Affairs team on code compliance pathways.
  • Own the translation of structural engineering expertise into scalable rulesets, design workflows, and structured technical documentation.
  • Define structural engineering requirements and provide technical input for BuildOS products and review their implementation.
  • Identify gaps in ICON's structural product systems and develop frameworks to close them.
  • Document findings, propose solutions, and drive resolution across relevant cross-functional teams.
  • Maintain a current, structured workplan for all assigned structural product development initiatives using Jira and related project management tools.
  • Proactively surface structural risks, dependencies, and timeline pressures to BACS leadership.
  • Maintain a structured intake from ICON’s customer support teams for field-surfaced structural conditions, SEOR-identified edge cases, and applied project outcomes.
  • Translate recurring patterns into product development requirements and close the gap between applied experience and the validated product system.
  • Review and support the development of technical content and structural design guidance for customers and customer teams.
  • Provide deep structural technical support to consultant teams working with ICON’s Divisions on research and development projects.
  • Collaborate and receive feedback from ICON’s Divisions to incorporate feedback into the structural development of ICON’s building products.
  • Ensure field experience and lessons learned flow back into building product & systems.
  • Represent ICON's structural engineering capabilities in internal technical forums and external conversations.
  • Periodic field visits to ICON field installations, and partner locations to observe installation performance, surface structural product development inputs, and validate design assumptions against real-world conditions.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering, Structural Engineering, or related discipline
  • Licensed Professional Engineer (PE) in at least one U.S. jurisdiction
  • 12 or more years of structural engineering experience; 8 or more years with a Master's degree
  • Demonstrated experience working across multidisciplinary teams in fast-paced, cross-functional environments
  • Strong command of ACI, ASCE, and TMS design codes and their application across building types and jurisdictions
  • Proven ability to translate complex structural engineering concepts into clear documentation, technical guidance, and product requirements
  • Track record of managing multiple workstreams and driving technical initiatives to completion without close supervision
  • Proficiency with industry-standard structural engineering tools, including finite element analysis software (CSI Suite — ETABS and SAP2000), calculation documentation platforms (MathCAD), Excel-based engineering calculation workflows, and Revit for structural documentation and coordination
