What Does a Structural Analysis Engineer Do?

As a structural analysis engineer, you test equipment, buildings, and manufactured products to determine whether or not they meet performance goals, standards, regulations, and requirements. You may perform a stress test on various materials, monitor construction data, evaluate equipment or design blueprints, and otherwise help to ensure the final product is structurally sound. Most structural analysis engineers focus on building construction, but some work with aircraft, cars, or other heavy equipment instead. This job is highly time-sensitive because construction often cannot proceed until structural analysis checks are done. So, the ability to work quickly and efficiently is essential to success in this role.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Structural Analysis Engineer, and why are they important?

To excel as a Structural Analysis Engineer, you need a strong background in civil or mechanical engineering, expertise in structural mechanics, and a relevant engineering degree, often with a Professional Engineer (PE) license. Familiarity with finite element analysis (FEA) software such as ANSYS or Abaqus, as well as CAD and simulation tools, is typically required. Analytical thinking, problem-solving, and effective communication are vital soft skills that help engineers interpret data and work collaboratively. These skills ensure the safe and efficient design, evaluation, and optimization of structures, which is critical for public safety and project success.

What are some common challenges faced by Structural Analysis Engineers when working on multidisciplinary projects?

Structural Analysis Engineers often collaborate with teams from mechanical, electrical, and architectural disciplines. A common challenge is ensuring that structural requirements are balanced with other project needs, such as space constraints or integration with non-structural systems. Effective communication and early involvement in project planning help address potential conflicts and ensure that safety and performance standards are met without delays. Adaptability and strong teamwork skills are essential for navigating these complex, collaborative environments.

What is the difference between Structural Analysis Engineer vs Civil Engineer?

AspectStructural Analysis EngineerCivil Engineer
Primary FocusAnalyzing and designing structural components and systemsDesigning, constructing, and maintaining infrastructure like roads, bridges, and buildings
CertificationsFE/EIT, PE (Structural)FE/EIT, PE (Civil)
Work EnvironmentEngineering firms, construction sites, consultingConstruction sites, government agencies, consulting firms
Industry UsageCommon in structural design projectsBroader, includes structural but also transportation, environmental, and geotechnical

While both roles require engineering credentials and often work in similar environments, Structural Analysis Engineers specialize in analyzing and designing structural components, whereas Civil Engineers have a broader scope including infrastructure and environmental projects. Understanding these differences helps in choosing the right career path or job search focus.

Job description

A bit about us
Trek is an awesome place to work, with amazing benefits for all employees. We build only products we love, provide incredible hospitality to our customers, and change the world by getting more people on bikes. When you're on our team, you're taken care of, encouraged to learn and grow, and given lots of opportunities to do so. Give us your best, and we'll give it right back. Sound pretty sweet? Then come join us!
Job Description
We're looking for a Structural Analysis Engineer on our Structural Analysis team within the Trek Performance Research engineering group. The focus for this role will be using FEA and structural analysis tools to analyze bicycle frames and components. You will be responsible for leveraging your structural analysis expertise to make design recommendations for both concept assessment and detailed design with minimal oversight.
You will work in a cross-functional environment, collaborating with product development teams (bike frames, components, accessories, etc) and other Trek Performance Research engineers to develop best-in-class bicycle products. Many of the problems we work on are open-ended and ill-defined, requiring engineering judgment, creativity, and comfort making assumptions with imperfect information. This role is ideal for engineers who enjoy shaping the problem as much as solving it.
Flexible start date in late Spring / early Summer 2026. Candidates with the ability to work in the Waterloo, WI headquarters at least one to two days per week are preferred.
Responsibilities
  • Understand design requirements and utilize them to define scope of analysis
  • Use FEA and Structural Analysis expertise to carry out structural concept assessments
  • Determine appropriate approach, tools, and effort level for concept assessments
  • Build FE models from provided CAD geometry to conduct detailed structural analysis
  • Coordinate with design engineers to perform structural analysis of frames and components within project timelines
  • Translate analysis results into design recommendations based on design requirements
  • Advocate for structurally sound design decisions in environments where analysis guidance may be constrained by manufacturing realities, industrial design priorities, or supplier capabilities
  • Work iteratively with designers, suppliers, and engineers to translate analysis insight into feasible next steps, rather than expecting immediate adoption
  • Travel domestically and internationally as required to meet project needs and support continuing education (less than 10%)

Position Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Aerospace, Materials Engineering or comparable degree
  • 3+ years of professional experience using commercial FEA software. Graduate study with a focus in structural analysis or engineering mechanics can replace professional experience
  • Strong understanding of structural engineering fundamentals
  • Experience with bladder molded laminate composite manufacturing methods and the analysis of structures made from them
  • Able to make design recommendations with minimal oversight, while actively seeking peer input and cross-functional perspective when it improves outcomes
  • Must be able to work well in a diverse design group
  • Able to communicate and present technical ideas to a non-technical audience
  • Demonstrated ability to influence technical decisions without direct authority
  • Thrives in environments where problems, processes, and tools are evolving, and enjoys improving them
  • Curious always learning mindset
  • Live or be willing to relocate to the Waterloo, WI area

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Master's degree in applicable field
  • Specific experience in ABAQUS is a plus
  • Experience developing material allowables for laminated composites
  • Experience using parameterized or composite optimization software (e.g. HEEDS, HyperX)
  • Experience with non-linear, dynamic, and/or explicit modeling
  • Familiarity with python or other programming languages
  • Interest in developing lightweight tools, scripts, or workflows that improve analysis efficiency or communication
  • Experience (or strong interest) in evolving analysis methods to better align with manufacturing and design realities, not just idealized models
  • Personal or professional interest in cycling, bicycles, or the outdoor industry, and motivation that comes from seeing products used in the real world

Trek Benefits:
• Flexible and fun company culture
• Competitive health care
• PPO & HDHP medical plan options, Dental insurance, Vision insurance
• Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA)
• Free life insurance & optional term life insurance
• Competitive vacation package
• 401(k) with match and Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOP)
• 12 weeks of maternity leave with 100% pay
• Flexible holiday schedule - 10 company holidays
• Tuition Reimbursement up to $15,000! (Undergraduate & Masters programs)
• Employee discounts on all product
• Deep partner retail discounts
