About Modulus Housing
Modulus Housing is a construction tech startup specializing in modular, prefabricated structures with integrated MEP systems. Our factory-finished modules enable deployment up to 70% faster than traditional construction methods.
We operate across 21 states, delivering solutions for healthcare, education, housing, defense, and industrial infrastructure. Backed by Tier-1 VCs, we combine modular engineering, digital design tools, and decentralized fabrication to make infrastructure rapid, reliable, and scalable.
Role Overview
We are looking for a Structural Engineer with expertise in RCC, Steel Structures, and Pre-Engineered Buildings (PEB).
You will design, analyze, and optimize modular buildings—bridging concept design, detailed engineering, and execution. This is a high-ownership role where your structural solutions will directly shape deployable, high-quality modular projects across critical sectors.
Key Responsibilities
Structural Design & Analysis
- Prepare structural designs and calculations for PEB and RCC modules, ensuring compliance with IS and AISC codes.
- Develop technical documents (design briefs, calculations, connection details) and coordinate with STAAD, Tekla Structures, and Revit teams for accurate outputs.
- Optimize structures for cost-efficiency, material usage, and modular constructability.
Modeling & Documentation
Review and validate structural models, fabrication / shop drawings, and erection drawings.Guide and support steel detailers and Tekla modelers to ensure design intent is captured.Prepare BOQs, reinforcement schedules, bolt lists, connection layouts, and fabrication documentation.Coordination & Execution
Collaborate with architects, MEP, and site teams for integration and constructability.Address design queries through RFIs, revisions, and joint review meetings.Ensure all drawings, models, and calculations meet QA / QC standards and client specifications.What We’re Looking For
Qualifications & Experience
M.E. in Structural Engineering (Master’s degree required).2–9 years hands-on experience in Steel, PEB, modular, and RCC projects (modular / prefabrication exposure preferred).Strong knowledge of IS and AISC codes for design and detailing.Proficiency in STAAD Pro, Tekla Structures, AutoCAD / Revit; familiarity with BIM and CNC / NC workflows is a plus.Core Competencies
Analytical & Detail-Oriented – proven ability to resolve complex design challenges.Collaborative – thrives in cross-disciplinary project environments.Organized & Proactive – skilled in document control and revision management.Excellent Communicator – bridges engineering, modeling, and execution teams.Why Join Us
Shape the future of modular infrastructure in critical sectors.Work on landmark projects using cutting-edge digital design tools.Accelerated career growth into senior engineering, BIM, or project leadership roles.Be part of a fast-growing, VC-backed team delivering real social impact.Role : Structural Engineer (PEB & RCC)
