A track record of more than 5 years of experience in bridge and/or structural design, having collaborated in international and multicultural teams at some stage.

The role
As a key part of our Think and Act Globally strategy and digital adoption, Enterprise Capabilities (EC) is AECOM's primary vehicle for the shared work model (workshare). Operating across geographic borders and time zones, EC collaborates with regional teams and Global Business Lines to provide specialized technical expertise, accelerate project delivery, and maintain AECOM's competitiveness in the industry.
With a team of more than 3,000 technical professionals spread across nine countries and supported by remote technical experts, EC delivers high-quality specialized services to meet capacity, resource, and technical knowledge needs on projects of any size and complexity.
At AECOM, we are looking to hire a Senior Engineer with experience in bridge and/or structural design to reinforce our growing team within the Enterprise Capabilities area in Europe (Madrid).
Our team has a solid track record in bridge and structure design in the USA, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Latin America, and the Middle East. With us, you will be able to participate in iconic infrastructure projects in a diverse and multicultural environment.
You will participate in all phases of project development, from conceptual and feasibility studies to preliminary and detailed designs, covering a wide variety of bridge and structure typologies. You will be part of large multidisciplinary teams for public and private clients, including major large-scale turnkey (Design and Build) projects.
What you'll do
Work as part of the bridges and structures team with other designers of the same functional level, who may be from different EC offices (Poland, Spain, India...), taking on projects of medium complexity.
Coordinate and lead small design teams focused on structural design for a specific project.
Perform non-complex value engineering assessments, determining alternative designs, materials, and construction techniques.
Work autonomously within established procedures, with leeway to determine work priorities.
Perform quality control reviews of design calculations or drawings, including participation in interdisciplinary reviews.
Ensure compliance with project technical objectives, milestones, and budgets.
Prepare complex project deliverables with the help of a junior technical and support team, providing supervision and mentorship to less experienced colleagues.
