Ricaya is a progressive, fast-growing consultancy based in Surfers Paradise, Gold Coast. We're on the hunt for a talented Senior Structural Engineer ready to step into a leadership role within our dynamic team.

From day one, you'll work on an exciting mix of structural projects—from complex multi-storey and commercial developments to high-end custom homes—while helping drive innovation, quality, and project delivery across the board.

About the Role

As a Lead Structural Engineer at Ricaya, you will:

  • Lead the design and delivery of structural engineering solutions across diverse residential and commercial projects.
  • Oversee project planning, team coordination, and ensure on-time, high-quality delivery.
  • Collaborate closely with architects, builders, and consultants to ensure practical, innovative outcomes.
  • Mentor junior engineers and support our drafting team to produce accurate and well-documented designs.
  • Ensure compliance with Australian Standards, codes, and best practices.
  • Play a key role in business development and client relationship management—contributing to proposals, networking, and helping grow our project pipeline.
  • Contribute to continuous improvement across our workflows, systems, and technical standards.
What We're Looking For
  • Bachelor's degree in Structural Engineering (or equivalent recognised in Australia).
  • 6+ years of proven structural engineering experience in Australia, with a strong focus on residential and commercial projects.
  • In-depth technical knowledge, particularly in concrete and steel structural systems, with an understanding of seismic design principles where applicable.
  • Proficient in industry-standard software such as RAM Concept, ETABS, and SpaceGass.
  • Chartered Professional Engineer (CPEng) status is highly regarded, or actively working towards chartership.
  • Demonstrated experience in managing projects and leading technical teams.
  • Strong commercial awareness, risk management capability, and sound engineering judgement.
  • Passionate about mentoring junior team members, promoting a collaborative culture, and delivering exceptional client outcomes.
  • Excellent interpersonal, leadership, and problem-solving skills.
  • Bonus: A background in business development, with existing industry relationships or a demonstrated ability to bring in work, will be highly regarded.
Key Responsibilities
  • Design and analyse a variety of building structures.
  • Review and prepare drawings, models, and reports.
  • Work with internal teams to develop practical, buildable designs.
  • Coordinate with clients, architects, and consultants during the design process.
  • Attend meetings and visit sites when needed.
  • Provide technical support and guidance to the team.
Why Join Ricaya?
  • A leadership opportunity in a company that values growth and innovation.
  • A diverse project portfolio—from luxury homes to large-scale commercial builds.
  • A flat, collaborative structure that encourages initiative and continuous learning.
  • Work-life balance in a prime Gold Coast location with flexible working options.
