Salary:

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 executionensuring 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 mindsetespecially from aviation, precision assembly, or other industrial environmentswho wants to apply those standards to the built environment.

What Youll 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 Creatures evolving modular playbook.

What You Bring

• Bachelors degree in Industrial, Mechanical, or Operations Engineering
• 13 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

• Someone who prefers solving upstream over firefighting downstream
• A communicator who values clarity, accountability, and iteration
• An engineer who wants to help build a platformnot just a project

Why Creature

Creature is collapsing the traditional silos of architecture, engineering, and construction into a unified DesignManufactureConstruct platform. Were here to deliver better buildings, fasterand create a workplace defined by craft, clarity, and growth.
