Dubai, Dubai, United Arab Emirates BSO Full time

We are seeking a Senior Structural Engineer to lead the design and analysis of advanced AI data center facilities. In this role, you will be responsible for ensuring the structural integrity, safety, and cost-effectiveness of large-scale, mission-critical infrastructure. You will collaborate closely with architects, mechanical engineers, electrical engineers, and construction managers to deliver cohesive, high-quality designs that meet or exceed industry standards.

Key Responsibilities

Structural Design & Analysis

  • Develop detailed structural designs for data center facilities, including steel, concrete, and composite structures.
  • Conduct comprehensive analysis using industry-standard software (e.g., SAP2000, ETABS, STAAD.Pro) to evaluate loads, stresses, and potential failure points.
  • Ensure designs integrate well with other building systems (HVAC, electrical, fire protection), prioritizing both functionality and resilience.

Technical Documentation & Approvals

  • Review and approve technical drawings, specifications, and calculations, guaranteeing accuracy and compliance with project requirements.
  • Prepare structural reports, feasibility studies, and other documentation for client presentations and regulatory submissions.
  • Collaborate with BIM teams to produce and maintain accurate AutoCAD/Revit models, managing version control and design revisions.

Cross-Disciplinary Collaboration

  • Coordinate closely with architects, mechanical, and electrical engineers to ensure cohesive and efficient structural designs.
  • Participate in design review meetings, value engineering sessions, and cross-functional coordination workshops.
  • Provide technical insight to project managers, construction teams, and subcontractors, helping resolve issues related to design or materials.

Site Inspections & Construction Support

  • Perform regular site visits to verify construction is aligned with approved drawings, quality standards, and safety regulations.
  • Monitor contractor work, addressing any discrepancies or technical challenges promptly.
  • Provide expert guidance during construction phases, ensuring correct interpretation of structural drawings and specifications.

Standards & Regulatory Compliance

  • Ensure all structural designs comply with relevant codes—such as Eurocodes, BS EN standards, or equivalent local regulations—and company guidelines.
  • Stay up to date on code updates, emerging structural technologies, and best practices relevant to data center construction.
  • Document and implement quality control procedures to maintain the highest design and construction standards.
  • Evaluate and introduce modern construction materials, methods, and technologies (e.g., Tekla Structures for steel detailing) to enhance efficiency and sustainability.
  • Engage in ongoing professional development to stay abreast of the latest industry trends, potentially integrating them into future projects.
  • Identify opportunities to optimize structural design workflows, streamline processes, and reduce costs without compromising quality or safety.
Skills & Qualifications
  • Education : Bachelor's or Master's degree in Civil or Structural Engineering (or related field).
  • Experience : 8+ years in structural engineering, ideally with experience in data centers or other mission-critical facilities. Proven track record of completing large-scale, complex projects on time and within budget.
  • Technical Skills : Proficiency in SAP2000, ETABS, STAAD.Pro for structural analysis. Working knowledge of AutoCAD, Revit (BIM), and Tekla Structures for steel detailing. Familiarity with Eurocodes, BS EN standards, or relevant local/regional regulations.
  • Soft Skills : Strong leadership, analytical, and problem-solving capabilities; excellent communication and team collaboration.
  • Certifications : Professional Engineer (PE) or Chartered Engineer (CEng) registration is highly advantageous. Additional certifications in seismic design or sustainability are a plus.
Why Join Us?
  • Cutting Edge Projects : Shape the structural backbone of AI-driven data centers that are transforming the global digital landscape.
  • Global Collaboration : Partner with a diverse team of engineers, architects, and specialists across multiple regions.
  • Professional Growth : Enjoy access to leadership development, industry-leading tools, and continuous learning opportunities.
  • Innovation & Excellence : Contribute to a culture that encourages forward-thinking solutions and values technical excellence.
  • Sustainability Focus : Play a pivotal role in designing eco-friendly facilities that reduce the carbon footprint of large-scale computing.
