Job Description
- Review structural design packages, calculations, analysis models and detailing prepared by the EPC Contractor for compliance with the Employer's Requirements, Uzbek building codes and international structural design practice.
- Control the governance process for structural design exceptions, waivers, value-engineering proposals and design changes, ensuring safety and long-term durability are never compromised.
- Ensure all structural design accounts for local seismic conditions, soil and geotechnical characteristics, and applicable Uzbek and international seismic design codes.
- Maintain oversight of geotechnical investigations, foundation design and ground-engineering solutions across the terminal, landside and airside facilities.
- Coordinate structural design with architecture, MEP, baggage handling and airport-systems disciplines so structural solutions support the design identity and operational requirements without compromise.
- Resolve structural interface and clash issues early with the EPC Contractor, PMC and design teams to protect programme and cost.
- Review structural methodology, temporary works and construction sequencing proposals for buildability, safety and programme feasibility.
- Oversee structural quality assurance during construction, including materials testing, inspection regimes and non-conformance resolution.
- Identify structural risks early — including seismic, geotechnical, loading and durability risks — and drive timely resolution with the EPC Contractor and shareholder technical teams.
- Uphold structural safety, resilience and whole-life performance standards consistent with a world-class international gateway airport.
- Support the SPV design approval process by reviewing EPC and specialist contractor structural deliverables and providing technical recommendations.
- Act as a credible technical partner to shareholder engineering teams, the PMC, and regulatory and certification bodies on structural matters.
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Structural or Civil Engineering.
- Chartered/Professional Engineer status (e.g. ICE, IStructE or equivalent) an advantage.
- Minimum 12–15 years in structural engineering design and review, ideally on major aviation, transport or landmark public infrastructure projects.
- Proven experience reviewing and approving EPC structural design packages on large, multi-stakeholder infrastructure projects.
- Experience with seismic design, geotechnical coordination, and structural interfacing with architecture, MEP and specialist airport systems.
- Strong technical judgement with the authority to uphold structural safety and quality under commercial and programme pressure.
- Credible senior-stakeholder partner able to influence designers, contractors and shareholder technical teams.
- Rigorous, detail-oriented reviewer of structural drawings, calculations and specifications; fluent English required, Russian or Uzbek an advantage.
- Structural design fully compliant with Uzbek codes, seismic requirements and international standards, with no unresolved non-conformances at opening.
- EPC structural design packages reviewed and approved to programme, supporting on-time delivery through build and opening.
- Structural risk — including seismic and geotechnical risk — identified and resolved early, with no material impact on cost, programme or safety.
