Description du poste

Job description

The Civil Engineer is responsible for providing engineering support, technical assurance, asset performance monitoring, and lifecycle management for civil and structural assets across the Dubai Metro network. The role supports the safety, integrity, reliability, maintainability, and long-term performance of infrastructure including station and depot structures, viaducts, bridges, tunnels, retaining walls, foundations, drainage interfaces, architectural finishes and other assigned civil assets.

The Civil Engineer reports to the Engineering Manager Infrastructure and works with Maintenance, Operations, Projects and other stakeholders to investigate defects, assess asset condition, recommend sustainable engineering solutions, and implement approved asset improvement and renewal initiatives in accordance with engineering governance requirements.

Main Responsibilities

Strategic

• Support development and implementation of civil asset management strategies and lifecycle plans aligned with organizational objectives.
• Contribute to condition-based and risk-based inspection, maintenance, renewal and investment prioritization for civil and structural assets.
• Provide engineering inputs to civil asset standards, technical specifications and improvement initiatives consistent with applicable codes, railway requirements and asset management principles.
• Support the Engineering Manager Infrastructure with technical studies, asset risk registers and long-term infrastructure planning.

Financial

• Does not directly manage budgets but supports cost-effective asset lifecycle decisions through engineering analysis.
• Provides engineering input to CAPEX and OPEX business cases related to Civil assets.
• Indirectly influences financial outcomes through optimization of maintenance standards, reliability improvements, and asset obsolescence strategies.

Stakeholder / Customer

• Interfaces with Maintenance teams, Operations, Planning, QHSE, Data & Digital, and PMO to ensure engineering outputs support operational needs.
• Acts as the engineering reference point for Civil-related technical matters.
• Engages with external stakeholders including RTA, OEMs, suppliers, and engineering consultants as required.

Operational

• Leads and supports engineering investigations into CIVIL asset performance, failures, and degradation trends.
• Supports Root Cause Analysis (RCA), ETI processes, Failure Review Boards, and corrective action definition for CIVIL systems.
• Develops, maintains, and governs CIVIL engineering standards, specifications, maintenance principles, and technical documentation.
• Supports engineering change management activities including ACCAs, design modifications, and system upgrades.
• Analyses asset performance and condition data to support reliability-centred and condition-based maintenance strategies.
• Supports project-to-engineering and project-to-maintenance handover, ensuring full technical compliance and documentation completeness.
• Manages technical aspects of CIVIL obsolescence, including risk assessments and mitigation plans.
• Ensures engineering compliance with safety, engineering governance, and asset management requirements.

Capability / People

• Provides technical leadership and guidance within the CIVIL engineering discipline without direct line management responsibility.
• Supports knowledge sharing, mentoring, and technical development of engineering and maintenance stakeholders.
• Contributes to the continuous improvement of engineering capability and asset management maturity within the organization.

Challenges

• Ensuring optimal performance and reliability of Metro assets while managing complex technical investigations and improvement programs.
• Balancing operational demands with engineering responsibilities, including technical investigations, asset changes, and maintenance support.
• Aligning multiple stakeholders, including maintenance teams, engineering peers, senior management, and external suppliers, to achieve asset performance objectives.
• Driving continuous improvement in asset reliability and lifecycle management within budget and resource constraints.
• Keeping up to date with evolving industry standards, regulations, and best practices in rail and metro asset engineering.
• Acting as the technical champion for CIVIL System, ensuring that all recommendations are effectively translated into practical, reliable, and consistent implementation across frontline operations.

Key Competencies

Technical Competencies

• Strong grounding in CIVIL engineering principles and railway or large infrastructure systems.
• Experience with asset lifecycle management, reliability engineering, RAMS principles, and engineering investigations.
• Working knowledge of ISO 55000 series asset management standards.
• Ability to analyse asset performance and maintenance data to develop engineering insights.
• Ability to interpret technical drawings, specifications, and engineering documentation.
• Proficiency in change management and improvement programs.

Behavioural Competencies

• Excellent communication and stakeholder management.
• Problem-solving and decision-making under complex conditions.
• Continuous improvement and mentoring mindset.
