Position Summary:

The Skidding/E-House Engineering Manager leads the structural engineering discipline supporting the design and fabrication of skid-mounted equipment packages and electrical houses (E-Houses). This role is the primary technical authority for IBC code compliance, state licensing, state certifications/inspections, PE stamping, and lift calculations, and manages a team of engineers to ensure all skid and E-House structural designs are safe, code-compliant, and delivered on schedule. This position reports directly to the VP of Engineering.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Serve as the primary technical authority on International Building Code (IBC) compliance for all skid-mounted equipment packages and electrical house (E-House) structural designs.
  • Review, approve, and PE-stamp structural calculations, drawings, and specifications for skids and E-Houses in accordance with applicable codes and state requirements.
  • Perform and oversee lift calculations and rigging plans to ensure the safe lifting, transport, and installation of skids and E-Houses.
  • Manage state professional licensing for the engineering group, ensuring the team holds and maintains the licenses required in every state where projects are executed.
  • Coordinate state certifications, inspections, and permitting activities for skid and E-House projects, acting as the primary liaison with Authorities Having Jurisdiction (AHJs) and third-party inspectors.
  • Lead, mentor, and develop a team of structural and design engineers supporting skidding and E-House programs.
  • Partner with the VP of Engineering to establish structural engineering standards, design practices, and quality control processes for skids and E-Houses.
  • Review project scopes and customer specifications early in the proposal and design phases to identify structural, code, and licensing requirements.
  • Collaborate with project management, manufacturing, and quality teams to ensure structural designs are manufacturable, code-compliant, and delivered on schedule.
  • Evaluate site-specific loading conditions (seismic, wind, snow, transportation) and ensure designs are engineered accordingly.
  • Support proposal and estimating efforts with structural engineering scope reviews, risk assessments, and man-hour estimates.
  • Stay current on changes to the IBC, state building codes, and state licensing/certification requirements, and update internal engineering standards accordingly.
  • Lead root cause investigations and corrective actions for structural or code-compliance issues identified during design, fabrication, or in the field.

Competencies:

  • In-depth knowledge of the International Building Code (IBC) and applicable state/local building codes as they apply to the structural design of skids and E-Houses.
  • Demonstrated ability to stamp structural calculations and drawings.
  • Working knowledge of state licensing, certification, and inspection processes for structural equipment and prefabricated structures.
  • Proficiency in performing and reviewing lift calculations and rigging/transportation plans.
  • Strong background in structural analysis and design, including relevant structural design software.
  • Leadership and people-management skills, with the ability to build, mentor, and develop an engineering team.
  • Task management and the ability to carry a plan to completion across a number of concurrent projects.
  • Excellent written and oral communication skills.
  • Ability to interact directly with customers, sales, inspectors, other technical resources, and management.
  • Technical writing skills.
  • Organization skills.
  • Excellent working knowledge of MS Office Suites (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Project, etc.).
  • Pride in workmanship.
  • Manages multiple tasks and deadlines with minimal supervision; demonstrates consistent prioritization and planning.
  • Attention to detail and thoroughness.

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Structural, Civil, or Mechanical Engineering, or equivalent professional experience.
  • 15+ years of structural engineering experience within the skidding/E-House industry.
  • Active Professional Engineer (PE) license preferred but not required; ability to obtain licensure/reciprocity in additional states as needed.
  • Demonstrated experience with IBC compliance, state licensing, state certifications/inspections, PE stamping, and lift calculations.
  • Prior experience managing or leading an engineering team preferred.
  • Experience working directly with customers, third-party inspectors, and Authorities Having Jurisdiction (AHJs) preferred.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
