You've built a solid foundation. You've developed your skills. Now you're ready for the next exciting step in your career.
Ross Engineers is a boutique structural consultancy in Sydney's inner west, and we're looking for an experienced Structural Engineer who's ready to step into a role with genuine ownership, real client relationships, and a clear line of sight to senior responsibilities. This isn't a holding pattern, it's a launchpad.
What makes this different:
At Ross Engineers, the work is varied, the team is small, and the decisions get made promptly. You'll be working directly with clients, architects, and builders, not passing messages through layers of hierarchy. You'll manage your own projects across a mix of residential and light commercial work, including new builds, alterations and additions, and bespoke one-off projects that keep things genuinely interesting.
Flexible working is real here, not a talking point. And because we're a boutique firm with high standards, the quality of what you produce actually matters to people who notice.
The kind of work you'll be doing:
Think structural designs from concept through to construction documentation, with guidance and reviews from senior engineers. Site inspections where your advice makes a real difference, coordination with project teams who respect your input.
You'll be managing multiple projects and timelines with the autonomy to make calls, which means you need to be someone who owns their outcomes and is ready to step up with confidence.
What you bring:
You'll have 2–4 years of structural engineering experience in a consulting environment, solid residential design credentials, and a working knowledge of Australian Standards and NCC requirements. You're across the usual software toolkit, SpaceGass, SLABS, Toolkit, TEDDS or similar, and you communicate clearly with clients and builders without retreating into technical jargon. Most importantly, you're proactive, practical, and motivated by doing excellent work rather than just getting through the day.
What you'll get:
A competitive salary that reflects the Sydney market, flexible working, CPEng support, and a genuine fast-track to senior engineering. You'll join a team that's collaborative without being chaotic and demanding without being unreasonable. The workload is balanced. The culture is social. And the kind of experience you'll build here will open doors for a long time to come.
If this sounds like the move you've been looking for, reach out directly or hit apply, we'd genuinely love to hear from you.
