The posting

Main Purpose:

The Senior Development Engineer is responsible for translating strategic master plans, feasibility metrics, and development briefs into buildable, cost-effective, and sellable designs. Acting as the technical core of the development team, this role drives aggressive engineering value optimization (BUA & design-to-cost), and navigates the technical permitting process to ensure projects smoothly transition from concept to active construction on time and within budget.

Key Responsibilities:

Technical Planning & Yield Optimization

  • Feasibility Modeling Support: Provide technical engineering inputs for initial site assessments and financial feasibility studies for potential land acquisitions.
  • BUA & Yield Engineering: Review architectural and engineering drawings to optimize efficiency ratios between Gross Floor Area (GFA) and Built-Up Area (BUA), eliminating "dead space" to maximize sellable or leasable inventory.
  • Market-Product Alignment: Collaborate on product-mix definitions to ensure technical design specifications (unit sizes, utility allocations, layout structures) align cleanly with sales strategy and target demographics.

Design Management & Consultant Control

  • Consultant Supervision: Manage architects, structural engineers, and MEP consultants across all design stages (Concept, Schematic, Detailed Design, and Construction Documents).
  • Technical Compliance Audits: Review all consultant deliverables to guarantee strict compliance with development briefs, structural integrity, target budgets, and local building codes.
  • Design Workshops: Chair technical design coordination workshops across multiple disciplines (architecture, structure, MEP, landscape, and infrastructure) to eliminate design clashes early.

Value Engineering & Cost Control

  • Design-to-Cost Tracking: Drive value-engineering exercises alongside cost consultants and the commercial team to hit target "cost-per-square-meter" metrics without hurting the project's aesthetic value.
  • BOQ & Budget Auditing: Review design-stage Bills of Quantities (BOQs) and cost plans to proactively identify and flag scope creep, specification drift, or budget overruns.
  • Material Optimization: Research and propose high-impact alternative materials or engineering methods that lower hard costs while safeguarding product longevity and quality.

Permitting, Approvals & Lifecycle Interfaces

  • Construction Handover: Manage the compilation and seamless handover of Issued for Construction (IFC) packages to the Technical Office and Construction teams.

Commercial Asset Alignment: Coordinate with Sales and Marketing teams to ensure physical mock-ups, renders, and show units match engineering realities and built parameters.

Specifications (Qualifications, Experience, and Skills)

  • Bachelor's degree in engineering "Architecture/Civil"
  • 4-6 years in design management with a real estate developer
  • Proficiency in project management software (e.g Primavera,Microsoft Office, AUTOCAD
  • Proven experience working on large-scale residential, commercial, or mixed-use master communities in Egypt.
  • Excellent communication skills.
  • Presentation skills.

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.
