• Participate in feasibility studies, site assessments, and technical evaluations for new landing station developments.
• Review engineering drawings, vendor submissions, and technical documentation to ensure compliance with project requirements.
• Support design coordination during the construction and commissioning phases, including technical clarifications, FAT/SAT activities, and issue resolution.
• Ensure designs comply with international standards, local regulations, and QHSE requirements.
• Liaise with consultants, contractors, vendors, and internal stakeholders to support project delivery.
• Maintain engineering documentation, drawings, and revision control throughout the project lifecycle.

What you should have:

• Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related engineering discipline.
• Minimum 8 years of experience in mechanical and/or electrical design for mission‑critical infrastructure, data centres, telecom facilities, industrial buildings, or similar environments.
• Knowledge of mechanical and electrical building services, including HVAC, power distribution, UPS, generators, grounding, and fire protection systems.
• Familiarity with multidisciplinary engineering coordination and design documentation.
• Experience with engineering software such as AutoCAD, Revit, BIM, ETAP, or similar design tools.
• Good communication and coordination skills to work effectively with consultants, vendors, and project teams.
• Ability to support engineering design from concept through construction and commissioning.

If you're passionate about designing mission‑critical infrastructure that connects the world, we'd love to hear from you.
