We are currently looking to hire an Engineer with experience in bridges and/or structures design, to join our busy and expanding team in Enterprise Capabilities, Europe (Madrid).
Our Bridges and Structures team has a strong track record delivering structural bridge engineering designs in the United States, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Latin America and the Middle East. With us, you will be able to contribute and participate in iconic transportation infrastructure projects within a diverse and multicultural environment.
You will be involved in all phases of project development, from conceptual and feasibility studies to preliminary designs and detailed design engineering, covering a wide variety of bridge and structural projects. You will be part of large multidisciplinary teams serving both public and private clients, including major large-scale Design and Build projects.
Here is what you will do:

- Design and coordination: you will contribute to conceptual studies and the evaluation of design alternatives (structural typologies, materials, and construction methods) based on technical and cost criteria, as well as participate in preliminary and detailed design stages. You will support coordination with geotechnics, hydraulics, alignment, utilities, and architecture, proactively identifying and resolving potential conflicts.
- Standards and constructability: you will apply international standards (AASHTO, AREMA, British Standards, Australian codes). You will incorporate a design for constructability approach, considering construction stages, site access, and project constraints.
- Collaboration and digital efficiency: you will participate in technical meetings to validate assumptions and understand constraints. You will contribute to digital efficiency through templates, parameterization, and task automation (spreadsheets and basic scripts).
What we offer
- Opportunity to work on structural designs in internationally iconic transportation and infrastructure projects.
- Collaboration with a multicultural and multidisciplinary team, sharing general best practices.
- Professional development in a technically excellent environment, with training and career growth opportunities.
