Job Highlights
About the Role
The engineer reviews contractor deliverables, verifying that engineering and design work meets contractual, quality, cost, and schedule obligations. Coordination with project teams, other engineering functions, and clients is essential to develop and finalize design specifications that align with client needs and standards. Responsibilities include analyzing customer requirements, addressing technical queries, and reviewing concept, FEED, and detailed engineering deliverables for telecom systems in accordance with local regulations and international codes. The engineer also produces design documentation for IT/telecommunication systems (LAN/WAN/WLAN, PABX, radio, microwave, VSAT, FTTH, OSP, structured cabling, meteorological systems). The role covers security system engineering—CCTV, access control, perimeter intrusion detection, radar, and long‑range surveillance—and the preparation of system specifications, study reports, design calculations (power, heat, weight, link budget) and bill of materials. Additionally, the engineer conducts telecom studies such as PAGA coverage, radio coverage, CCTV coverage and VSAT link calculations. • Prepare project deliverables (MTOs, datasheets, specifications, equipment layouts, cable routing) in compliance with design standards. • Review and validate contractor engineering work to meet contractual, quality, cost, and schedule criteria. • Coordinate with project teams, engineering disciplines, and clients to develop and finalize design specifications. • Analyze customer requirements, respond to technical queries, and review FEED and detailed engineering for telecom systems. • Design IT/telecommunication systems including LAN/WAN/WLAN, PABX, radio (TETRA/UHF/VHF), microwave, VSAT, FTTH, OSP, structured cabling, and meteorological systems. • Engineer security solutions such as CCTV, access control, perimeter intrusion detection, radar, and long‑range surveillance systems. • Produce engineering documentation: system specifications, study reports, design calculations (power, heat, weight, link budget) and bill of materials. • Conduct telecom system studies (PAGA coverage, radio coverage, CCTV coverage, VSAT link calculations). • Perform detailed design and FEED for fiber optics, structured cabling, CCTV, telephony, PIDS, PAGA, and ACS. • Provide interdisciplinary input to instrumentation, electrical, and civil disciplines. • Execute procurement tasks, including technical bid evaluation of contractors and vendors. • Communicate technical issues clearly in writing and verbally; deliver presentations to senior management and clients.
