We are seeking a motivated Structural or Mechanical Designer to join our engineering team. The successful candidate will contribute to the design and development of ventilated and suspended facade systems for high-quality building projects. This role involves working closely with architects, structural engineers, and project managers to deliver safe, efficient, and aesthetically integrated facade solutions.
Dare to have a mission:
· Design and detail ventilated and suspended facade systems, including supporting structures, fixings, and connections.
· Develop 2D and 3D drawings, technical documentation, and specifications.
· Collaborate with architects, contractors, and suppliers to integrate facade solutions into overall building design.
· Ensure compliance with relevant codes, standards, and client requirements.
· Support the preparation of bills of materials, tender documents, and shop drawings.
· Provide technical input during fabrication, installation, and site coordination when required.
The tools in your backpack:
· Bachelor’s degree in Civil/Structural Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Architecture, or a related field;
OR
· Equivalent relevant professional experience in facade design and detailing/ senior draftsman experience in the domain.
· Proven experience (4+ years) in the design of ventilated, suspended, or curtain wall facade systems.
· Proficiency in CAD software (AutoCAD - .DXF/. DWG, HiCAD, Revit, Plant3D or similar).
· Knowledge of structural analysis tools is an advantage - structural and mechanical calculations for loads, anchoring, and durability.
· Familiarity with façade materials (aluminum/ composite panels and supporting elements, insulation, waterproofing systems).
· Strong understanding of building physics related to ventilation, moisture, and thermal performance of facades.
· Ability to read and interpret architectural and structural drawings.
· Good communication skills, ability to collaborate in multidisciplinary teams.
· Fluency in English (Dutch would be an advantage).
