MEP Project Engineer

About Us

1. Technical Review & Design Compliance (MEP)

• Review MEP shop drawings, material submittals, load and sizing calculations, and method statements; verify equipment compatibility (e.g. pump/filter hydraulic matching) and prepare clear, single-verdict review comments (including Revise and Resubmit where deviations are fundamental) for the Technical Manager’s endorsement.
• Verify that MEP works on site comply with approved IFC drawings, specifications, and approved submittals.
• Raise and respond to RFIs and Technical Queries (TQs) and assist in resolving design clashes and discrepancies.
• Disclose the source document type reviewed (native CAD versus plotted PDF) and flag any compliance claims benchmarked against the contractor’s own criteria rather than the project specification.

2. Documentation & Reporting

• Prepare inspection reports, submittal review logs, NCR/SOR logs, and mockup readiness tracking.
• Maintain accurate, auditable records of all reviews, observations, and the status of open and closed items.
• Ensure all formal outputs clearly separate Contractor, Consultant, and Client action items.
• Assist in preparing technical reports, comparisons, and weekly progress summaries for top management review.

3. Coordination & Compliance

• Support the Technical Manager in the weekly technical meetings with contractors, consultants, and internal departments.
• Ensure works align with UAE authority regulations and applicable building codes (ADIBC, ADCD, DM/DDA, Estidama).
• Report major risks or repeated quality failures immediately to the Technical Manager.
• Support audits, quality reviews, and process improvement initiatives.

Qualifications & Experience

• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical or Electrical Engineering, or related field.
• Experience: Minimum 5 years in construction technical review / QA-QC in the UAE, ideally with a contractor or consultant on residential, mixed-use, or mid/high-rise projects.
• Strong knowledge of MEP systems (HVAC, plumbing, firefighting, electrical, ELV), load and sizing calculations, and inspection procedures.
• Familiarity with UAE authority approval processes and the engineering submittal workflow (shop drawings, material submittals, method statements, RFIs, TQs).
• Candidate should have a UAE driving license and own vehicle (the role requires regular travel between Abu Dhabi and Dubai).

Preferred Attributes

• Ability to review MEP shop drawings, calculations, and material submittals and identify technical and design issues.
• Proficiency in AutoCAD, MS Office, and document/submittal tracking tools.
• Strong attention to detail, with a preference for clear, auditable, and traceable documentation.
• Effective written and verbal communication for formal, contractual correspondence addressed to contractors and consultants.
• Ability to work under pressure and manage technical matters across multiple projects simultaneously.
