Key Requirements:

• Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering / Structural Engineering / Architectural Engineering (or related).
• Relevant certifications preferred (e.g. façade engineering, glazing systems, finishing treatments).
• Minimum 10-12 years of experience in aluminium façade / curtain wall / cladding systems, of which several years in a managerial or leadership technical role (site and design).
• Strong experience in both design (drawings, structural / wind / thermal load calculations) and site execution / installation.
• Proficiency in software tools: AutoCAD, Revit (BIM), structural analysis tools (STAAD Pro, SAP2000, or similar), modelling tools, detailing software.
• Understanding of finishes, coatings, glazing, weather sealing, anchors, joints, sealants, etc.
• Good knowledge of international façade performance standards (wind load, water tightness, air leakage, thermal bridging), local building codes (for Qatar / GCC).
• Excellent problem-solving, decision-making, communication and stakeholder management skills.
• Ability to work under pressure and multi-task across several projects.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead the technical design, shop drawings, structural calculations, and engineering analyses for aluminium, curtain wall, cladding, glazing, skylights, louvers, ACP (aluminium composite panels), etc.
