Pete Pawlak -S.E. - President

I’m approaching 40 years as an engineer and I can’t say I have never worked a day in my life but have been fortunate to do what I love.  The opportunity to have worked with some remarkable co-workers, peers, consultants, and architects has been very rewarding.  As our team grows, we will have the depth of experience to take on new structural challenges.

When I am not at my desk, we enjoy recreational hiking, gardening, and getting our hands dirty working on older model cars.

Ty Bartley - S.E. - Vice President
Ty Bartley Bio ImageI joined Bartley Pawlak in 2012 as a project manager and became a partner in the firm in 2020.  I have over 19 years of engineering & structural analysis experience on a variety of commercial, public works, and residential projects. I have worked on commercial projects both nationally and internationally. I grew up in WA and obtained my B.A. & B.S. from The Evergreen State College and an M.S in structural engineering from the University of Utah.

I like to maximize my work life balance and find the two to be greatly intertwined these days. When I am not at the office, I like to spend time with my wife and three kids. We are constantly exploring from the mountains to the sound and all the great places to eat in between.
