Job summary

Parsons leads the senior team driving district integration in Riyadh, coordinating rail assets with developer districts and GoA4 driverless systems. The role governs BIM processes, interface control, and safety while aligning master plans with district scale infrastructure.

You will oversee complex clashes, rights-of-way, and maintenance easements, ensuring design coordination across civil, MEP, and rail disciplines.

Qualifications

Minimum 15 years of experience in large-scale rail, transit, metro, urban infrastructure, or complex master-planned development programs.
Strong background in multidisciplinary interface management across rail assets, developer plots, civil works, structures, MEP, systems, public-realm, utilities, and operations.
Excellent understanding of rail alignment constraints, structural clearances, tunnel requirements, viaduct interfaces, station planning, auxiliary infrastructure, and spatial needs for GoA4 driverless rail systems.
Proven ability to manage rail integration within developer-led or mega-project environments where real-estate objectives must be balanced with strict transit system requirements.
Deep familiarity with BIM coordination workflows, federated model reviews, clash detection, 3D coordination, and modern design coordination software.
Strong knowledge of Fire Life Safety requirements for rail and transit environments, including NFPA 130 principles, evacuation planning, smoke management, emergency access, and civil defense coordination.
Practical understanding of Operations and Maintenance requirements for rail assets, including access, replacement routes, maintainability, safety zones, and permanent operational clearances.
Experience preparing and managing interface control documents, boundary matrices, interface registers, rights-of-way records, access plans, and design coordination trackers.
Strong ability to resolve conflicts between rail infrastructure, private development, utilities, road networks, landscaping, public-realm, and passenger-movement requirements.
Exceptional communication and influencing skills with the ability to negotiate firmly while maintaining constructive relationships with developers and project stakeholders.
Able to lead technical workshops, guide multidisciplinary teams, make practical decisions, and elevate critical risks when required.

Responsibilities

Lead spatial integration and layout coordination for fixed rail infrastructure including tunnels, elevated viaducts, stations, auxiliary buildings, ventilation shafts, emergency exits, and traction power substations.
Ensure rail infrastructure fits within tightly constrained developer districts while maintaining operational safety, system performance, maintainability, and masterplan alignment.
Define, manage, and protect rail rights-of-way, structural zones, operational boundaries, access corridors, and maintenance easements.
Prevent encroachment from adjacent real estate, utilities, roads, landscaping, public-realm assets, and developer-controlled works.
Coordinate placement and design of wayside infrastructure such as ventilation shafts, escape stairs, traction substations, service access points, and emergency intervention routes.
Lead BIM and federated model coordination across civil works, structures, MEP, rail systems, architecture, utilities, roads, landscape, and developer assets.
Identify spatial clashes early through model reviews and drive practical resolution between rail components, buildings, utilities, public-realm, and district infrastructure.
Act as the lead technical mediator for interface conflicts involving rail alignment, structures, developer plots, deep utilities, access zones, roads, landscape features, and public-realm elements.
Establish, maintain, and update interface control documents, boundary matrices, access schedules, ownership records, interface registers, and construction sequencing records.
Coordinate cross-asset alignment between stations, tunnels, viaducts, ancillary structures, utility networks, district developments, and transport interfaces.
Ensure Fire Life Safety requirements are embedded into integrated district designs from early planning through detailed design and construction coordination.
