SRE: Structural R&D Engineer

About Us

Zuru Tech is digitalizing the construction process of buildings all around the world. We have a multi-national team developing the world’s first digital building fabrication platform, you design, we build it! 

We at ZURU develop the Zuru Home app, a BIM software meant for the general public, architects, and engineers, from here anyone can buy, design, and send to manufacturing any type of building with complete design freedom. Welcome to the future!

What are you Going to do?

📌 Conduct high-quality research that aligns with academic standards but operates at an accelerated pace to address urgent, practical design and detailing challenges

📌Conduct comprehensive literature reviews and strategically plan research topics aligned with project goals.

📌 Develop robust research methodologies to tackle challenges in modular construction and structural performance.

📌 Perform numerical simulations to analyze and predict structural behaviors and phenomena.

📌 Plan and coordinate experimental campaigns to validate numerical models and theoretical findings.

📌 Evaluate the code compliance of structural components and systems with relevant standards.

📌 Draft and present technical reports and prepare research articles based on findings, ensuring clarity and accuracy. 

📌 Perform detailed analyses of numerical simulation results and experimental observations to derive actionable insights.

📌 Adapt research activities to provide practical, product-focused solutions to design and detailing questions outside conventional approaches.

📌 Collaborate with internal teams and external experts to deliver higher-level performance-based designs of new components, tailored to meet performance requirements in diverse seismic environments.

📌 Actively engage and communicate in a professional and collaborative research environment involving top scholars in structural and earthquake engineering.

📌 Leverage opportunities to learn from leading researchers and expand your professional network within the field.

📌 Collaborate with international teams, accommodating varying time zones for effective communication and coordination.
