Structural Engineer - Calculator Development

Innovation dies when it’s trapped in a spreadsheet.

At ClearCalcs, we free engineers to spend more time thinking and less time doing. Our cloud structural design calculators already power over 50,000 projects a year worldwide — and we’re just getting started.

If you’re a structural engineer passionate about solving real-world problems, building tools engineers love, and shaping the future of design, we want you on our team.

Your impact

• Ship calculators fast - foundations, retaining walls, RC/steel/timber, all via our no-code calculator builder
• Empower others — translate complex standards into intuitive, best-practice calculators.
• Amplify impact — ship tools used by thousands, iterating from direct customer feedback.
• Own QA – write tests, review calc outputs, and hunt edge cases to guarantee trust
• Take radical ownership - act as product/tech lead, partnering with product, dev and customer success to sharpen every launch.
• Find a better way - help create new workflows, tools, and AI helpers that cut design cycles from hours to seconds.
