Construction Engineer
Build the future of building.
Creature is developing an integrated platform to transform how buildings are designed, manufactured, and assembled. As a Construction Engineer, you will serve as a critical link between our manufacturing operations and field execution-ensuring that every prefabricated component we produce is optimized for precision, scalability, and seamless installation.
This role is ideal for a detail-driven engineer with a manufacturing mindset-especially from aviation, precision assembly, or other industrial environments-who wants to apply those standards to the built environment.
What You'll Do
Bridge Design & Build
- Translate design intent into field-ready processes by coordinating across manufacturing, field, and project delivery teams.
Optimize Processes
- Develop, document, and continuously improve work instructions and standard operating procedures for modular construction workflows.
Advance Prefabrication
- Support engineering strategies for prefabricated systems (walls, MEP assemblies, etc.) and drive manufacturability throughout the design-build cycle.
Support Production Systems
- Use Procore, PowerBI, and cost/quantity tracking to monitor production health, install rates, and productivity metrics.
Run the Field Feedback Loop
- Partner with install teams and superintendents to surface real-world constraints and implement upstream improvements.
Drive Lean Principles
- Identify waste, propose countermeasures, and contribute to Creature's evolving modular playbook.
What You Bring
- Bachelor's degree in Industrial, Mechanical, or Operations Engineering
- 1-3 years in a manufacturing or precision assembly environment (aviation preferred)
- Familiarity with CAD, Revit, Procore, or equivalent digital tools
- Ability to read and interpret construction drawings and shop documentation
- Strong analytical, organizational, and communication skills
- Comfort with iteration, feedback, and fast-moving systems
Who Thrives Here
- A systems thinker who sees connections between design, process, and build
- Someone who prefers solving upstream over firefighting downstream
- A communicator who values clarity, accountability, and iteration
- An engineer who wants to help build a platform-not just a project
Why Creature
Creature is collapsing the traditional silos of architecture, engineering, and construction into a unified Design-Manufacture-Construct platform. We're here to deliver better buildings, faster-and create a workplace defined by craft, clarity, and growth.
If you're ready to help reimagine how things get built, we'd love to meet you.
