Senior Structural Engineer (Remote)

Ballpark Engineering is a structural design firm based in Mountain Green, Utah, serving builders, developers, investors, and owners across the Mountain West. We deliver residential, commercial, hospitality, and forensic assessment work for clients who need fast, clear, code-fluent design they can actually build from.

We think like builders. We move like owners. We communicate like real people. Our clients hire us because we shoulder complexity so they don’t have to, and because we treat their time, capital, and trust like our own.

We are building the most agile, execution-focused structural design firm in the Mountain West. We invest heavily in proprietary tools and modern workflows that let a small team deliver the volume and quality of a much larger one. We are growing fast, and we are deliberate about who we bring on.

Ballpark Engineering is hiring a senior remote PE or SE to take real weight off the founder’s plate and help us scale. This is a production and stamp role. You will own projects end to end, mentor an EIT, and stamp deliverables across multiple states. You will not be a backseat engineer.

Remote at BPE does not mean low expectations. It means we trust you to produce, communicate, and deliver without supervision. We hire remote engineers who would have been our top performers in person, and we treat them that way.

• Own complete structural design packages for residential and commercial projects across the Mountain West
• Stamp deliverables in UT and additional states as your licensure allows
• Review and stamp work produced by EITs and junior engineers
• Author structural reports, condition assessments, and code compliance letters

• Strong working knowledge of Mountain West design conditions: high seismic (SDC D), high ground snow loads up to 300+ psf, ice loads per ASCE 7 Chapter 10

• Field capture: MagicPlan, SiteScape
• Project and document management: Asana, Egnyte, Bluebeam, Google Workspace
• Communication and client systems: Slack, Zoom, GHL

We invest in modern tools and proprietary internal systems that eliminate the manual grind from production work. You will be expected to use them, improve them, and help us build new ones.

• Take ownership of outcomes without being asked
• Communicate clearly and directly, in writing and in person
• Adapt fast when projects, codes, or priorities shift
• Care about systems and process, not just calcs
• Adopt new tools quickly and look for ways to make the team faster
• Take initiative instead of waiting to be told
• Thrive in fast-moving environments and protect your standards under pressure
• Align with how we operate as a firm and how we treat our clients, our team, and our craft

• Fully remote, US only. Work must be performed from within the US.
• Minimum 4 to 6 hours of real-time overlap with Mountain Time business hours (8 AM to 4 PM MT)
• No regular travel currently. We are working toward annual or biannual team meetups, on BPE’s dime.
• All work authorization requirements must be met

• Real production ownership with stamp authority, not backseat engineering
• Direct mentorship and team relationship with the founder, not a corporate org chart
• Modern, proprietary tooling instead of archaic templates
• Flexible work with results-first accountability
• Compensation that scales with licensure and contribution

• Base salary within the range listed above
• Performance bonus tied to billables, profitability, and measurable business contribution
• Health insurance
• Paid time off
• 401(k) with employer match
• California PE licensure reimbursement on successful licensure. We cover application, NCEES exam, CA state-specific exams (Seismic and Engineering Surveying), fingerprinting, and issuance fees. Study courses and prep materials are the candidate’s responsibility.
• Multi-state licensure support. Additional state PE applications are reimbursed on successful licensure, and breadth of active licensure is reflected in compensation.

These are the values we hire, fire, and promote against.

• Extreme Ownership. We don’t pass problems. We solve them. Every team member owns the outcome.
• Speed is a Value. We move with urgency and clarity. Deadlines are commitments, not suggestions.
• Clarity Over Complexity. We simplify the chaos so our clients don’t have to. Simplicity is mastery.
• Clear, Proactive Communication. We close loops early. We don’t wait to be asked. We don’t go dark.
• Build Like You Own It. We think like investors, not just engineers. We protect client capital like it’s our own.
• Honor the Trust. Trust is built slowly and lost fast. We protect it with integrity, always.
• Weapons-Grade Execution. We deliver with precision, on time, with no loose ends.
• Train Like a Pro, Think Like a Founder. Every role is leadership. Every person is expected to grow.
