This is a great opportunity for an engineer who thrives in multidisciplinary environments and is passionate about delivering high-quality, reliable, and efficient civil engineering solutions for real-world applications.

Key Responsibilities:

1. Civil Design & Engineering:

• Design and layout of civil works for renewable energy and industrial facilities, including site grading, earthworks, drainage systems, access roads, hardstands, and underground utility corridors.
• Develop civil design packages for solar farms, BESS facilities, substations, industrial plants, and associated infrastructure.
• Prepare site plans, grading drawings, drainage layouts, road alignments, utility plans, and civil details.
• Support the design of foundations, slabs, retaining elements, and external works for industrial and energy facilities.
• Ensure designs are developed in accordance with project specifications, applicable codes, and constructability requirements.

2. Site Development & Infrastructure Expertise:

• Perform site development design for renewable and industrial projects, including cut and fill optimization, stormwater management, and surface water drainage.
• Support the design and coordination of access roads, internal roads, crane pads, equipment platforms, and maintenance access areas where required.
• Coordinate underground utility layouts and interface with electrical, mechanical, and process requirements across the project.
• Review geotechnical, topographical, hydrological, and survey information to inform design development and engineering decisions.
• Contribute to practical and efficient civil solutions that support safety, operability, and long-term asset performance.

3. Civil 3D Modeling & Coordination:

• Prepare and manage civil engineering models and drawings using Autodesk Civil 3D for site development, grading, drainage, roads, and utilities.
• Develop surfaces, alignments, profiles, corridors, grading models, and quantity outputs to support design and project delivery.
• Coordinate civil designs with structural, electrical, mechanical, process, and environmental disciplines in a multidisciplinary environment.
• Participate in model reviews and design coordination sessions to support integrated and clash-free project delivery

4. Technical Deliverables & Documentation:

• Perform engineering calculations related to earthworks, drainage, stormwater systems, road geometry, utility layouts, and foundation inputs.
• Generate technical specifications, quantity take-offs, bill of quantities, and construction documentation in compliance with applicable standards and client requirements.
• Prepare technical reports, feasibility studies, inspection notes, and client-facing documents.
• Support permitting, design basis documentation, and engineering deliverables across concept, FEED, and detailed design stages

5. Interdisciplinary Collaboration & Quality Assurance:

• Coordinate civil design with structural, electrical, mechanical, geotechnical, environmental, and architectural disciplines.
• Participate in design reviews to ensure integration, constructability, and compliance with project requirements.
• Conduct QA/QC reviews of drawings, models, calculations, and documentation to uphold design quality and consistency.
• Support resolution of technical design issues and contribute to continuous improvement of engineering standards and workflows.

6. Project Execution Support:

• Provide engineering support during construction, including site visits, responses to RFIs, review of contractor submissions, and design clarifications.
• Assist in reviewing earthworks, drainage installation, roadworks, foundations, and underground utility construction for compliance with design intent.
• Support as-built documentation, construction records, and coordination with site and commissioning teams as required.
• Contribute to project scheduling, cost awareness, and planning of engineering scope delivery

Qualifications & Experience:

Required:

• Bachelor’s Degree in Civil Engineering or related discipline.
• 5-10 years of professional experience in civil engineering design for renewable energy, industrial, infrastructure, or similar large-scale projects.
• Experience in site development, grading, drainage, roads, foundations, and underground utility coordination.
• Strong proficiency in Autodesk Civil 3D for design and modeling of civil engineering works.
• Good understanding of relevant civil engineering codes, standards, and design practices.
• Proficiency in English (spoken and written).

Preferred:

• Experience in renewable energy projects such as solar PV, BESS, substations, wind, or associated energy infrastructure.
• Site experience, including field engineering, construction supervision, inspection, or contractor coordination.
• Familiarity with geotechnical interpretation, stormwater assessments, earthworks optimization, and utility interface management.
• Working knowledge of BIM/CDE platforms and multidisciplinary digital coordination workflows.
• Experience in preparing technical reports, feasibility studies, and client-facing engineering documentation.
