The Lead Infrastructure Engineer is responsible for leading and managing all engineering activities related to infrastructure works within major construction projects — including roads, utilities, drainage, earthworks, and associated civil systems. The role ensures that infrastructure designs and construction methodologies are technically sound, cost-effective, compliant with project specifications, and aligned with the overall delivery strategy.
- Infrastructure Design Management: Lead the development, review, and coordination of infrastructure design packages including roads, utilities, drainage, and grading works in alignment with project requirements and standards.
- Technical Coordination: Coordinate across disciplines (Structural, Electrical, Mechanical, and Architectural) to ensure design integration and constructability of infrastructure systems.
- Design Verification: Review drawings, calculations, and specifications submitted by consultants or subcontractors to ensure compliance with contractual and regulatory standards.
- Engineering Support to Construction: Provide on-site engineering support during construction phases, resolving design-related issues, RFIs, and field modifications.
- Standards & Compliance: Ensure all designs and materials conform to project specifications, local authority requirements, and international standards (BS, AASHTO, ASTM, etc.).
- Value Engineering: Identify opportunities for cost optimization and efficiency through alternative design or construction methods without compromising quality or safety.
- Interface Management: Manage interfaces between infrastructure works and other construction disciplines to avoid scope gaps and ensure schedule alignment.
- Quality & HSE Integration: Embed safety-in-design and quality control measures in all engineering deliverables and construction processes.
- Progress & Reporting: Track engineering progress, monitor performance of subcontractors or design consultants, and provide regular status updates to the Senior Technical & Engineering Manager.
- Team Leadership: Mentor and guide junior engineers and draftsmen, ensuring consistent application of project standards and procedures.
