Graduate Structural Engineer

DomeShelter Australia is looking for a Structural Engineer to join our Engineering team. This is not a role where you will spend your first two years doing repetitive calculations in the background. Working directly with our Head of Engineering, you will gain hands-on exposure to the complete structural engineering process – from concept development and structural analysis through to detailed design, documentation, certification, fabrication and construction.

The Role

You will progressively become involved in:

• Structural analysis and design of steel-framed fabric-clad structures
• Wind loading and application of Australian Standards
• Structural steel, connections, foundations and anchorage design
• Preparation of engineering calculations and technical reports
• Review of structural drawings and 3D models
• Engineering input into major and complex projects
• Technical support to our estimating, project and construction teams
• Development of standard engineering solutions, design tools and technical documentation
• Use of modern digital and AI-assisted tools to improve engineering workflows

You won't be expected to know all of this on day one.  We are looking for someone with strong engineering fundamentals, curiosity and the desire to become a capable practical structural engineer.

About You

You will have recently completed, or be close to completing, a recognised degree in Civil or Structural Engineering.

More importantly, you will:

• Enjoy understanding how structures actually work
• Be naturally curious and willing to ask questions
• Have strong analytical and problem-solving skills
• Take pride in producing accurate work
• Be comfortable getting involved in practical engineering problems
• Value integrity and professional responsibility
• Be interested in technology and new ways of working
• Want to develop engineering judgement rather than simply learn how to operate software

Experience with structural analysis software SpaceGass, Excel, CAD/3D modelling and Australian structural design standards is essential. You will need to be registered with Engineers Australia and serious about embarking on your professional development pathway.
