As an architectural engineer, it is your job to oversee the planning and construction of buildings, especially during early developmental stages, to ensure architectural and structural integrity. Your work may also encompass building renovations and remodels. Your main duties are to analyze building plans and supervise construction with a focus on functionality, structural stability, and safety. Some architectural engineers focus on a specific area, such as lighting or HVAC, while others work on an entire project. The job involves close collaboration with construction crews and project stakeholders, especially architects and project supervisors.
