    • Ensure all designs comply with Abu Dhabi authority standards (e.g., ADDC, ADWEA, Etisalat, Du, ADM) and applicable international codes.

    Coordination & Project Support

    • Coordinate with internal disciplines (Civil, Structures, Roads, Wet Utilities, Environment, and Planning) to ensure integrated and clash‑free designs.
    • Support project managers in preparing schedules, resource plans, and design programmes.
    • Assist in risk and opportunity assessments for assigned projects.
    • Participate in multidisciplinary technical meetings and provide clear engineering input.

    Authority Engagement & Approvals

    • Prepare and compile authority submission packages in accordance with Abu Dhabi requirements.
    • Engage with local authorities to present design proposals, respond to technical queries, and secure approvals.
    • Ensure timely progression of NOCs and design approvals.

    Client & Stakeholder Interaction

    • Support client presentations, workshops, and progress meetings.
    • Communicate technical solutions clearly to clients, contractors, and stakeholders.
    • Contribute to achieving high levels of client satisfaction and quality outcomes.

    Team Contribution & Quality

    • Provide technical support and guidance to junior engineers and CAD technicians.
    • Ensure all work follows internal QA/QC processes and project-specific requirements.
    • Review contractor shop drawings and materials submittals, providing clear recommendations.
    Qualifications
    • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Civil Engineering, or a related discipline.
    • Minimum 7+ years of experience in dry utilities design, ideally within an engineering consultancy environment.
    • Strong experience delivering dry utilities designs on Abu Dhabi infrastructure and land development projects.
    • Solid understanding of Abu Dhabi authority procedures and approval workflows (ADDC, Etisalat, Du, ADM, etc.).
    • Proficiency with design and analysis software including AutoCAD, Civil 3D, Dialux, ETAP, Amtech, and MS Office.
    • Strong communication, coordination, and technical report-writing skills.
