Senior Civil Engineer (Infrastructure) at Tatu City Limited

Senior Civil Engineer (Infrastructure)

We are seeking a highly experienced and strategic Senior Civil Engineer to take a leading role in the design and delivery of large-scale urban infrastructure. This pivotal position requires a seasoned professional with deep analytical and design skills in city-scale infrastructure, including roads, utilities, and advanced stormwater management systems. The ideal candidate will be a hands-on leader, capable of guiding projects from conceptual design through to site supervision and completion. A critical aspect of this role is the mandatory, close collaboration with urban designers and landscape architects to create integrated, sustainable, and resilient urban environments. This is a unique opportunity for an expert engineer to make a significant impact on the development of major city projects.
Infrastructure Design & Technical Analysis 

  • Lead the conceptual, preliminary, and detailed design of all civil infrastructure for large-scale urban developments, including road networks (geometric and pavement design), potable water distribution, and wastewater collection systems. 
  • Conduct and oversee comprehensive hydrological and hydraulic modeling for stormwater management systems, including flood-line analysis and the design of sustainable urban drainage systems (SuDS). 
  • Prepare and approve high-quality engineering documentation, including detailed calculations, technical reports, specifications, and construction drawings, ensuring compliance with international and local standards. 
  • Utilize advanced infrastructure modeling tools to analyze and optimize designs for efficiency, constructability, and long-term performance. 
  • Project Execution & Site Supervision 
  • Provide expert technical oversight during the construction phase, ensuring all works are executed in strict accordance with design specifications, quality standards, and safety regulations. 
  • Conduct regular site inspections to monitor progress, identify potential issues, and provide decisive on-site solutions to technical challenges and contractor queries. 
  • Manage the review and approval of construction materials and contractor submittals to ensure they meet design requirements and quality benchmarks. 
  • Serve as the primary technical point of contact between the design office and the construction site, ensuring seamless communication and rapid resolution of issues. 
  • Integrated Design & Stakeholder Coordination 
  • Mandatory: Work in close and continuous coordination with urban designers and landscape architects to ensure that infrastructure design is seamlessly integrated with the overall masterplan and public realm vision. 
  • Participate in integrated design workshops to align road corridors, utility easements, and stormwater strategies with urban planning and landscape architecture objectives. 
  • Liaise effectively with government agencies, regulatory bodies, utility providers, and other external stakeholders to facilitate project approvals and ensure compliance. 
  • Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior engineers, fostering a culture of technical excellence and collaborative problem-solving within the team.

Requirements

Key Qualifications & Experience:

  • Bachelor’s Degree in Civil Engineering or a closely related field (mandatory).
  • Minimum of 10 years’ hands-on experience in the design and site supervision of civil infrastructure for large-scale developments.
  • Proven expertise in the design of roads, water and sewer networks, stormwater management systems, and flood risk assessments.
  • Solid understanding of international design standards (e.g., AASHTO) and familiarity with local regulations.
  • Skilled in Autodesk Civil 3D, Infraworks, and hydrology/hydraulic modeling tools such as HEC-RAS, StormCAD, WaterGEMS, or SewerGEMS.
  • Proficiency in AutoCAD, Revit, and Navisworks is an added advantage.
  • Experience working collaboratively with urban designers and landscape architects on multi-disciplinary projects.
