Your skills. Our team. Together, we design the future.
We are looking for a motivated engineer who enjoys solving technical challenges and is eager to develop within a collaborative and international environment. You combine a strong interest in structural engineering with curiosity about new technologies, digital tools, and innovative ways of solving engineering problems. Knowledge of design of bridges, tunnels, underground structures or other complex concrete structures will be highly relevant.
On top of that you have:
- A Master degree in Civil Engineering, Structural Engineering, or a related discipline
- 0-5 years of professional experience in structural or civil engineering.
- Knowledge with finite element modelling (FEM) and structural analysis
- Knowledge of concrete design principles and relevant design standards such as for instance Eurocode 2
- Interest or experience in automated workflows and parametric design tools, such as Grasshopper
- Interest or experience in AI, programming or engineering automation is an advantage
