Job Description
AECOM is seeking a Structural Manager to lead the Bridge Structures Department in Mechanicsburg, PA. This group focuses on transportation-related structural projects, often as a part of multi-discipline projects. Potential clients include PennDOT, Pennsylvania Turnpike, DelDOT, and various Class 1 railroads or transit agencies.
Job Duties include, but are not limited to:
- Performs various management, leadership, and people accountability responsibilities for the Bridge Structures department.
- Has full responsibility for interpreting, organizing, executing, and coordinating technical assignments.
- Will manage group of structural engineers, drafters/designers, and other staff within the group.
- Responsible for coordinating activities of the unit and serving as a Structures Lead for various structural assignments.
- Plans and develops engineering tasks involving exploration of subject area, definition of scope and selection of problems for investigation and development of concepts and approaches.
- Responsible for acting independently on technical matters pertaining to the field.
Examples of some of the high-profile projects that our Greater Pennsylvania Area structures group have recently designed include:
Schuylkill Banks Trail Extension (Christian Street to Grays Ferry Crescent), Philadelphia, PA
- This project involved the planning and design of an 18-span, 1,820-foot long pedestrian bridge over and along the east bank of the Schuylkill River. The bridge includes 15 prestressed concrete PA Bulb-Tee Beam approach spans and a three-span, cable-stayed main span. The project is currently in construction with an anticipated completion date of May 2025. This project was a successor project to our award-winning Schuylkill Banks Trail Boardwalk (Schuylkill Boardwalk) Project, which was constructed in 2013, a project that has brought transformational change to the Schuylkill Banks Trail, the City of Philadelphia, and the residents of Philadelphia and its surrounding areas.
SR 7404 07M Over Lehigh River & NSRR, Lehigh & Northampton County, PennDOT District 5-0
- This project involved the replacement of the 1,120-ft bridge carrying SR 7404 over the Lehigh River and NSRR between Coplay, PA and Northampton, PA. The new bridge replaced an existing multi-span concrete open spandrel arch, multi-span steel girder floor beam unit, and a single span Warren truss. The new structure utilized fully continuous spliced, post-tensioned prestressed concrete girders for the main span over the Lehigh River, representing the first time that spliced, post-tensioned prestressed concrete girders were used in Pennsylvania. Conventional prestressed concrete girders were used for approach spans. The project also involved the reuse of existing substructure units, ornamental lighting and the use of explosives for demolition of the existing concrete arches.
Ongoing projects:
Our structures group is currently working on multiple major bridge and bridge corridor replacement projects across the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, including:

Several structures involve the use of curved steel I-girders, integral pier caps and steel straddle bents.
