• Designing underground structures such as pits, considering load conditions and operational requirements.
• Developing and coordinating Underground Composite Plans, ensuring integration of piping, electrical, instrumentation, and civil elements.
• Collaborating with multidisciplinary teams to ensure proper integration of civil/structural designs within overall plant layout and plot plans.
• Supporting procurement activities through preparation of technical specifications, material take-offs, requisitions, and technical bid evaluations.
• Acting as a technical focal point for civil/structural engineering matters with clients, subcontractors, and internal teams.
• Monitoring engineering progress and ensuring deliverables meet project timelines and quality standards.
• Contributing to proposal preparation, project planning, manhour estimation, and execution strategy development.
• Participating in design reviews, hazard studies, and constructability assessments.
• Mentoring junior engineers and supporting the development of engineering standards, procedures, and best practices.
• Coordinating effectively with multiple offices and external partners in a global project environment.
