  • Coordinate directly with local municipal bodies, civil defense panels, and external stakeholders to capture required building permits.
  • Ensure absolute structural alignment with Dubai Municipality codes, statutory building regulations, and British/American engineering standards.
  • Provide high-level technical guidance, engineering support, and design iterations throughout all project lifecycles.
  • Contribute actively to the structural validation and computational analysis of complex, large-scale construction frameworks.
  • Collaborate productively with multidisciplinary squads, syncing architectural intent with structural execution logic seamlessly.
  • Audit engineering submittals, load calculations, and structural detailing packages to ensure error-free project delivery.

🔹 Requirements:

  • Bachelor’s Degree in Civil Engineering or Structural Engineering from a fully accredited academic institution is required; a Master’s degree in a matching structural field is a major asset.
  • Mandatory Municipal Credential: Must be a Dubai Municipality Approved Structural Engineer holding active registration for either G+12 or Unlimited Floors configurations.

  • Deep, comprehensive operational knowledge across the following primary functional dimensions:
    • Structural design principles, finite element analysis, load combinations, and structural engineering standards.
    • Dubai Municipality approval processes, electronic submission portals, and localized code compliance checking.
    • Authority regulations, Civil Defense fire-safety parameters, and environmental durability requirements.
    • Complex high-rise building physics, concrete/steel detailing, and infrastructure execution sequences.
  • Outstanding team-focused leadership behaviors, strict attention to numerical and geometric detail, exceptional problem-solving skills under tight delivery timelines, and immediate professional readiness to join the Dubai squad within one week.

What We Offer:

  • Competitive baseline fixed salary package structured from AED 5,000 to 6,000, determined entirely by past high-rise project defenses, live calculation simulations, and technical review interviews with our senior design panel.
  • An elite opportunity to assume structural custody and shape the skyline through high-impact, prestigious architectural developments inside a rapidly expanding engineering consultancy.
  • Stable career development paths supported by active project scale-ups and clear internal tracks for principal structural designers, engineering directors, branch technical heads, or specialists moving toward executive corporate operations or corporate hr jobs and technical engineering talent allocation networks.
