Job Description:

The Role

We're recruiting on behalf of a leading MEP contractor establishing its engineering office in Damascus. As Electrical BIM Engineer, you'll own both the engineering integrity and the BIM deliverables of electrical systems — reviewing design drawings, resolving technical queries, running calculations, and ensuring systems are constructible and compliant. This is more than a modeling role.

What You'll Do

●        Review consultant design drawings and specifications, and flag technical gaps, buildability issues and discrepancies.

●        Raise and manage RFIs with engineering justifications, and validate shop drawings against design intent and authority requirements.

●        Develop and QA electrical BIM models (LV/HV, lighting, ELV, fire alarm, earthing, containment) to LOD 300–400.

●        Run and review clash detection in Navisworks and provide engineering-based resolutions.

●        Perform or review cable sizing, voltage-drop, load-schedule and short-circuit calculations.

●        Maintain as-built models and compile O&M / COBie handover documentation.

What We're Looking For

●        5–8 years in an electrical engineering and/or BIM role within an MEP contracting environment, covering both engineering reviews and modeling.

●        Bachelor's in Electrical Engineering (BSc/BEng) — essential.

●        Advanced Revit MEP; proficient Navisworks; competent AutoCAD.

●        Calculation tools such as Excel load schedules, Amtech or DIALux.

●        Familiarity with IEC 60364, BS 7671, NFPA 70/101 and authority standards.

●        Professional working English and fluent Arabic.

●        Based in Damascus and able to work on-site at the engineering office.

Nice to Have

●        GCC project experience; knowledge of DEWA, SEC, Kahramaa or equivalent submission processes.

●        Direct MEP subcontractor background across award-to-closeout delivery.

What You'll Get

●        Competitive base salary reflecting your experience.

●        A foundational engineering role in a newly established office, backed by an established regional MEP contractor.

●        Work to international BIM standards with a modern Revit, Navisworks and Autodesk Construction Cloud toolchain.

●        A professional, international-standard environment built on quality, clear coordination, and room to grow.
