The posting

NAFFCO Future Concerns Fire Systems (NAFFCO FCFS) is the Nigerian arm of NAFFCO, a global leader in fire protection and safety solutions. The company designs and supplies fire-fighting, fire alarm, and life safety systems, supervises their installation, and provides ongoing maintenance for clients across the industrial, oil & gas, commercial, and infrastructure sectors.

We are seeking a Design Engineer to develop compliant, practical, and buildable designs for fire-fighting, fire alarm, and life safety systems. The role covers the full design process, from tender-stage work through to the preparation and review of as-built documentation.

The Role

• Design fire-fighting systems for a range of applications, including sprinklers, hydrants, hose reels, fire pumps, deluge and water spray systems, foam systems, and clean agent systems.

• Carry out the calculations needed to support system design, including hydraulic calculations, pump sizing, fire water storage assessments, and clean agent quantity calculations.

• Design fire alarm and detection systems, public address and voice evacuation (PA/VA) systems, emergency lighting, and exit signage. Develop device layouts and cause-and-effect matrices, and complete battery capacity and voltage-drop calculations.

• Prepare design basis reports, shop drawings, schematics, and BIM / Revit models, ensuring that designs are coordinated with other MEP services.

• Compile material submittals with relevant datasheets and certificates (UL / FM / LPCB / CE), and provide the quantities required by the Estimation team's BOQs.

• Review and respond to client and consultant comments, technical queries, and RFIs, making drawing revisions in line with established document control procedures.

• Provide support during site installation, testing, and commissioning activities, and review as-built drawings to help ensure that they reflect the completed installation.

Job Requirements

• Graduate in Mechanical Engineering, providing a relevant foundation for fire protection system design.

• 3–5 years of design experience covering fire-fighting, fire alarm, and life safety systems.

• Working knowledge of NFPA 13, 14, 20, 72, and 101 is required. Familiarity with BS 5839 / BS 5266 / EN 54 is an advantage.

• Proficiency in AutoCAD and hydraulic calculation software is required; experience using BIM / Revit is preferred.

• Ability to interpret project specifications and produce accurate, clearly documented, and well-coordinated drawings within project deadlines.

• Strong communication skills and careful attention to detail when preparing, coordinating, and revising design documentation.

Added Value

• Experience contributing to the design or delivery of oil & gas projects.

• Knowledge of and practical experience with NAFFCO products and fire alarm panels.

• Experience programming and commissioning addressable fire alarm systems.

• Relevant professional certifications, such as CFPS, NICET, or PMP.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
