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 buildingsbridging 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 Were Looking For

Qualifications & Experience

• 29 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.
