Senior Structural Engineer
Location: Espoo, Finland
Work mode: Hybrid, with 1–2 days working from home
Reports to: Chief of Structural Engineering
Type: Permanent, full-time
At Hyperion Robotics, we are building advanced 3D concrete printing systems to make construction more sustainable, scalable, and intelligent. Our Structural Engineering team plays a critical role in turning that vision into reliable real-world systems: designing, analyzing, certifying, and deploying 3D-printed concrete elements across projects in Finland, the UK, and future deployments across Europe.
We are now looking for a Senior Structural Engineer to join us in Espoo, Finland. This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys taking full ownership of structural engineering packages from the ground up together with the team - from preliminary structural concepts, CAD and Rhino/Grasshopper modeling, and finite element analysis (GSA/FEM) to Eurocode compliance, detailed calculation reports, and site testing. You will work in a collaborative team environment with regular technical discussions, cross-disciplinary design reviews, and shared problem-solving alongside our robotics, production, and sales teams.
This role is ideal for an experienced structural engineer who is completely independent in their engineering work, eager to mentor less senior engineers, and motivated to bridge technical design with commercial impact.
What It Means In Practice
Leading the structural design and analysis of prefab printed elements, reinforcement layouts, and 3D-printed formwork in strict compliance with Eurocodes and EN standardsAuthoring, reviewing, and validating comprehensive calculation reports and technical documentation packages for key client initiativesPerforming detailed structural calculations, including load paths, soil-structure interactions, stability, and serviceability assessmentsUpdating and expanding Hyperion’s entire structural product catalogue to create a standardized library of 3D-printable products and elementsTaking full ownership of structural engineering work packages across R&D initiatives and client projects, optimizing concepts for cost, manufacturability, durability, and sustainabilityResponding to client technical questions with a helpful, service-oriented mindset that builds trust and clarityPreparing and leading Factory Production Control (FPC) and CE-marking documentation, including Declarations of Performance (DoP), Initial Type Testing (ITT), and compliance certificatesCollaborating closely with the Sales team to perform structural feasibility and cost assessments for client proposals.Supervising laboratory material testing, site testing activities, and supporting external audits with certification bodiesMentoring junior engineers, participating in design reviews, and contributing to internal engineering standards and knowledge repositories
To Succeed In This Role, We Expect
You have a degree in Structural Engineering, Civil Engineering, or a closely related fieldYou have solid professional experience in structural design and analysis, operating independently at a senior levelYou are proficient in structural analysis software (preferably GSA or equivalent FEM tools) and skilled with CAD and Rhino/GrasshopperYou can produce and validate complete construction drawings, reinforcement schedules, and signed calculation reports with minimal supervisionYou have experience owning the structural scope of a system or project, bringing a pragmatic problem-solving mindset and high reliability under tight deadlinesYou communicate clearly in both verbal and written form, and can explain structural decisions, risks, and technical documentation in a way that cross-functional engineers and external stakeholders can followYou have a strong working knowledge of Eurocodes (including EN 14991, EN 206) and geotechnical interactions (soil-structure interface, foundation design)You bring a growth mindset - being humble, hungry, smart, and open to giving and receiving feedback
It Is a Great Plus If
It is a plus if you have an understanding of BIM tools, as well as hands-on experience with material testing, FPC documentation, and CE-marking processesYou have experience with or a strong interest in digital fabrication, 3D concrete printing, and advanced precast manufacturing techniques
