Within SSOE's Tool Install division, we specialize in the design and engineering of complex process equipment across semiconductor fabs and advanced manufacturing facilities. Our structural team plays a critical role in ensuring that every tool installation is built on a foundation of precision, safety, and technical excellence, from equipment support structures and seismic bracing to subfab framing and cleanroom modifications. Our structural designers work together with multi-discipline teams including mechanical, electrical, and process engineers to deliver fully integrated, installation-ready designs that meet our client’s and industry standards.

At SSOE, we don’t just talk about the future, we build it. As a leader in industry AI adoption, we empower our team to work smarter by providing responsible access to the industry leading AI Large Language Models, vibe-coding platforms, and securely integrating advanced tools into every role. From day one, you’ll receive the training and support needed to leverage AI as a core tool for enhancing productivity, sparking creativity, and streamlining complex workflows.

• Develop structural design deliverables for process tool installation projects, including layouts, plans, sections, details, and supporting documentation for tool supports, racks, platforms, embeds, and associated facility modifications.
• Coordinate with mechanical, electrical, and architectural disciplines to align structural design with equipment footprints, utility routing, seismic and support requirements, access clearances, and installation sequencing.
• Perform or support structural calculations for equipment loads, point loads, anchorage, support framing, and other project-specific design conditions, ensuring compliance with applicable codes, standards, and client criteria.
• Prepare design packages from concept through construction issue, incorporating constructability, maintainability, access, and safety considerations for cleanroom, subfab, and support spaces.
• Review vendor equipment data, installation requirements, and interface documents to identify design impacts, resolve conflicts, and confirm structural support needs.
• Participate in design reviews, model reviews, and coordination meetings with internal teams, clients, and contractors to support scope alignment, design quality, and schedule execution.
• Support QA/QC processes by checking drawings, calculations, and models for accuracy, completeness, code compliance, and consistency across disciplines.
• Track and incorporate design changes, field conditions, and client comments through formal change control and revision management processes.
• Help identify project risks related to structural support, schedule, constructability, or field installation and communicate mitigation needs to project leadership.
• Maintain clear and professional communication with clients, contractors, and internal stakeholders to support smooth coordination and timely issue resolution.
• Contribute to a culture of safety by incorporating safe access, installation sequencing, and fieldwork considerations into design decisions and project reviews.

• High school diploma or GED is required. An Associate’s degree-tracked in Structural or Civil engineering technology is preferred.
• Experience in structural design or drafting, preferably in an industrial, semiconductor, or advanced manufacturing environment.
• Experience with structural design software such as RISA, RAM, or similar platforms is a plus.
• Proficiency with AutoCAD and Revit, with the ability to produce coordinated, construction-ready structural documents.
• Ability to conduct field verifications and site assessments to identify, verify, resolve, and integrate solutions into design packages, troubleshooting design issues during construction as necessary.
• Experience with or exposure to semiconductor fab environments, cleanroom construction, or process equipment installation is a strong plus.
• Strong attention to detail with the ability to manage multiple deliverables in a schedule-driven project environment.
• Ability to collaborate effectively across disciplines and communicate clearly with engineers, project managers, and contractors.
• Ability to mentor junior team members or support peer review processes as project needs require.
• Salary Range: $50,000 - $100,000/year depending on location, education, depth of relevant experience, and any specialized licensure/certifications. Opportunity for ample rewards, leadership incentive components, and generous bonus opportunities.
• Benefits: Includes comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance, life insurance, 401K retirement savings plan (with company matching), opportunities for professional development and training (including support for relevant licensure & certifications), and generous PTO & paid holidays.
