Why Should You Hire a Structural Engineer with Penbrothers

Overview of the Role

Your Structural Engineer ensures every design stands strong, from high-level calculations to on-the-ground buildability. They think critically about loads, codes, and risk, but they also work through the daily tasks of modeling frameworks, checking compliance, and reviewing structural details. Not just engineers. Stability strategists.

Candidate Skillset

They know structural codes, design software, and load calculations inside and out. ETABS, AutoCAD, STAAD, and SAP2000 are second nature. The technical foundation is solid. But here’s what sets them apart: they design for durability, assess risk like consultants, and collaborate with architects and contractors to make ideas buildable. Experience across commercial, residential, and infrastructure projects where safety and cost-efficiency cannot fail.

How We Vet Structural Engineer Candidates

We don’t just verify engineering degrees and licenses. Every Structural Engineer candidate completes real structural analysis challenges that demonstrate their ability to design safe, efficient structures while ensuring compliance with building codes and standards.
Every candidate typically goes through validated skills assessments powered by TestGorilla:

  • Engineering Design: Evaluates structural analysis, load calculations, and design optimization capabilities;
  • AutoCAD/Technical Drawing: Tests proficiency in engineering software and technical documentation;
  • Mechanical Reasoning: Assesses understanding of structural principles, materials, and construction methods;
  • Problem Solving: Measures analytical approach to structural challenges and safety considerations.

Have specific assessment requirements?
We seamlessly integrate your custom tests, structural design challenges, or code compliance evaluations into our vetting process. Whether using our standard assessments or your specialized requirements, only candidates who demonstrate genuine expertise make it through our evaluation.

Ways They'll Collaborate with and Make an Impact on Your Team

Your Structural Engineer becomes the backbone of project integrity. Architects need feasibility checks. Contractors need precise specs. Executives need structures that meet safety and budget requirements. They understand how smart engineering connects design with execution. They’ll work with your team to deliver builds that last and scale with confidence.
