Structural Engineer

Key Role: The Structural Engineer will be responsible for
the structural design, analysis, and execution of a high-profile museum project
in Mecca. The role involves ensuring the structural integrity, safety, and
durability of the museum while integrating the architectural vision and
functional requirements. The Structural Engineer will work closely with
architects, contractors, and project managers to deliver a structurally sound
and aesthetically aligned facility.

Responsibilities

• Develop structural designs for the museum, ensuring
  stability, strength, and compliance with local building codes and international
  standards.
  
• Conduct detailed structural analysis of building materials
  (steel, concrete, timber, etc.) and systems to determine feasibility and
  safety.
• Provide innovative solutions to accommodate unique
  architectural elements and museum-specific requirements, such as large open
  spaces for exhibits.
  

• Work closely with architects, MEP (Mechanical, Electrical,
  Plumbing) engineers, and contractors to ensure seamless integration of
  structural systems with other building components.
  
• Coordinate with museum specialists to address specific
  requirements such as vibration control, load-bearing considerations, and
  artifact protection.
• Ensure structural elements complement the architectural
  design while maintaining functionality and cost-efficiency.
  

Construction Support

• Oversee the execution of structural works on-site to ensure
  adherence to design specifications and quality standards.
  
• Review and approve shop drawings, material submittals, and
  construction methodologies.
• Resolve any structural issues that arise during
  construction, maintaining alignment with project timelines and budgets.
  

• Ensure designs and construction comply with relevant codes,
  regulations, and standards, including seismic and environmental considerations
  specific to the region.
  
• Perform regular inspections and audits to ensure the quality
  and safety of structural components.
• Prepare structural reports and documentation for project
  stakeholders.
  
  

• Incorporate sustainable engineering practices to reduce
  environmental impact and optimize energy efficiency.
  
• Research and implement advanced materials and technologies
  to enhance structural performance.
  

• Proficiency in structural analysis and design software such
  as ETABS, SAP2000, STAAD.Pro, and SAFE.
  
• Advanced knowledge of building materials, construction
  methods, and structural systems.
• Expertise in seismic design and vibration control for
  sensitive structures like museums.
• Strong understanding of regional building codes,
  international standards, and best practices for structural engineering.
• Familiarity with BIM (Building Information Modeling) tools
  such as Revit for multidisciplinary coordination.
  

• Problem-Solving: Ability to develop creative and practical
  solutions for complex structural challenges.
  
• Collaboration: Strong teamwork skills to work effectively
  with architects, engineers, and contractors.
• Communication: Clear and concise communication skills to
  explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.
• Attention to Detail: Precision in structural calculations,
  design, and review to ensure accuracy and safety.
• Time Management: Ability to prioritize tasks and manage
  deadlines in a fast-paced project environment.
• Cultural Awareness: Understanding the significance of the
  project’s location and adapting designs to respect local traditions and
  requirements.
  

• Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering.
  

• At least 10 years of experience in structural engineering,
  preferably with experience in design and build projects or culturally
  significant structures.

This role provides a unique opportunity to contribute to the
design and realization of an iconic museum in Mecca. The ideal candidate will
combine technical expertise, creativity, and a commitment to excellence to
ensure the structural integrity of a world-class cultural landmark.
