Working hours: 5-day work week, 9am–6pm | Location: Singapore

Experienced project professionals welcome | BMS-specific guidance

About the Role

We are looking for an experienced Project Engineer to take ownership of assigned project scopes within our Building Management System (BMS) and building automation projects.

Working closely with the Project Manager, you will plan and coordinate day-to-day project activities, manage site execution and drive outstanding matters through to completion. You should be comfortable working independently within an agreed scope, resolving routine project issues and identifying matters that require technical support or management decisions.

You will coordinate with clients, consultants, contractors, suppliers and our installation and application engineering teams to deliver work safely, on schedule and to the required quality standards.

Candidates with relevant Electrical, ELV, ACMV or M&E project experience are welcome. BMS-specific guidance and technical support will be provided.

What You Will Do

• Take ownership of assigned project scopes, translating project requirements and milestones into practical work plans, site activities and follow-up actions.

• Coordinate manpower, subcontractors, materials and site readiness with the Project Manager and relevant teams to maintain progress.

• Manage day-to-day site coordination with clients, consultants, main contractors and other trades, including access arrangements, work sequencing and installation interfaces.

• Review drawings and specifications, coordinate technical submissions and drawing updates, and follow through on queries and approvals.

• Plan material requirements, track procurement and deliveries, and address shortages or delays before they affect site works.

• Monitor and supervise assigned installation works to ensure compliance with approved drawings, specifications, quality standards and site safety requirements.

• Identify site constraints, discrepancies and potential delays early. Propose practical solutions, coordinate agreed actions and escalated matters requiring further decisions.

• Coordinate testing, commissioning and inspections with application engineers and installation teams, ensuring site readiness and closure of defects and outstanding works.

• Track changes to the agreed scope, maintain supporting records and assist the Project Manager with variation orders, cost monitoring and progress claims.

• Coordinate project documentation, as-built drawings, test reports and operation and maintenance manuals for customer acceptance and handover.

• Keep the Project Manager informed through clear progress updates, highlighting risks, outstanding actions and decisions needed.

What We Look For

• Diploma or Degree in Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, Building Services or a related discipline.

• At least 3 years of relevant project engineering or site coordination experience in Electrical, ELV, ACMV, M&E or building automation works.

• Demonstrated ability to independently manage assigned project scopes and site activities, with appropriate reporting and escalation.

• Ability to interpret engineering drawings and specifications, with a practical understanding of installation works and coordination between trades.

• Experience coordinating contractors, suppliers and site teams, including planning work, tracking materials and following up on progress.

• Sound judgement in resolving day-to-day project issues, with the ability to assess priorities and recognise when additional support is required.

• Clear communication and good organisational skills, with a responsible approach to commitments, deadlines and completing outstanding work.

• Proficiency in Microsoft Excel and Word. Familiarity with AutoCAD and project scheduling tools is an advantage.

• Knowledge of BMS, HVAC controls or related building systems is an advantage, but is not essential.

• Willingness to travel to project sites across Singapore and support evening or weekend work when required to meet project schedules and site access requirements. Overtime will be paid in accordance with company policy.

What You Can Expect

• A 5-day work week with paid overtime.

• Ownership of assigned project scopes, supported by the Project Manager and experienced application engineers.

• Exposure across project planning, installation, testing, commissioning and handover.

• BMS-specific guidance for candidates from related engineering disciplines.

• Opportunities to take on larger project scopes and greater responsibility based on capability and performance.
