  • Witness factory acceptance tests (FAT) and site acceptance tests (SAT) for key equipment such as pumps, switchgear, control panels, SCADA systems, traffic signals, and ITS devices.
  • Ensure all works comply with relevant standards (DEWA, Dubai Civil Defence, NFPA, IEC, and other applicable codes).
  • Identify and report non-conformances, follow up on corrective actions, and ensure resolution prior to system handover.

Coordination & Interface Management

  • Liaise with DEWA, Dubai Civil Defence, Etisalat, DU, and other authorities for inspections, approvals, and NOCs.
  • Coordinate with the Contractor’s electromechanical team and other discipline engineers to resolve technical and interface issues.

Testing, Commissioning & Handover

  • Oversee pre-commissioning and commissioning activities, ensuring they meet approved procedures and performance requirements.
  • Review and verify O&M manuals, training materials, and spare parts lists submitted by the Contractor.
  • Assist in punch list preparation, system performance verification, and final handover of electromechanical systems.

Documentation & Reporting

  • Maintain accurate records of inspections, test results, commissioning activities, and equipment deliveries.
  • Prepare daily and weekly reports on electromechanical works progress, key issues, and milestones achieved.
  • Support claims review and variation order assessments related to electromechanical works.

Technical & Problem-Solving

  • Provide technical support to site inspectors and junior engineers.
  • Proactively identify and resolve technical problems to avoid delays and cost overruns.
  • Support value engineering initiatives for electromechanical systems to optimize cost and efficiency.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical or Mechanical Engineering (Master’s preferred).
  • Typically 10+ years of relevant experience, including site supervision of electromechanical works on large infrastructure projects.
  • Demonstrated experience with LV systems (MDB/SMDB, panel boards, cabling, earthing, lightning protection, UPS), and CCTV/ELV systems (cameras, NVR/VMS, networking, storage, integration).
  • Hands‑on experience with FAT/SAT, commissioning, and handover of integrated E&M and control systems (e.g., SCADA, ITS, traffic signals, pumping systems, MV/LV switchgear, CCTV).
  • Strong familiarity with DEWA and Dubai Civil Defence requirements, NOC processes, and regional authority interfaces.
  • Proven knowledge of NFPA, IEC, and relevant international and local standards/codes.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
