Senior Technical Office Electrical Engineer at Tatu City Limited

Key Responsibilities

Shop Drawing & Submittal Management:

• Lead the detailed technical review of all electrical shop drawings submitted by the contractor, including single-line diagrams (SLDs), panel schedules, cable containment layouts, lighting and power layouts, wiring schematics, and ELV system architectures.
• Meticulously check shop drawings against design drawings and specifications to ensure complete compliance with the design intent, equipment ratings, codes, and standards.
• Manage the formal review and approval process for all electrical material submittals, including datasheets for switchgear, transformers, generators, cables, light fittings, and all ELV system components.
• Lead the coordination of electrical shop drawings with architectural (e.g., reflected ceiling plans, furniture layouts) and mechanical/structural (e.g., plant room layouts, penetrations) submissions to proactively identify and resolve all interface clashes.

Technical Coordination & Information Control:

• Manage the Request for Information (RFI) process for all electrical matters. Ensure RFIs from the contractor are clear, coordinate with the design consultants for responses, and ensure timely resolution and distribution.
• Act as the primary technical interface for the contractor's technical team on all electrical matters.
• Review and provide expert commentary on contractor-proposed Method Statements and Inspection and Test Plans (ITPs) for critical electrical installations and commissioning activities.
• Review contractor-submitted electrical calculations (e.g., cable sizing, voltage drop) to verify compliance with the design.

Documentation & Reporting:

• Maintain an organized and up-to-date register of all electrical drawings, specifications, shop drawings, RFIs, and material submittals.
• Ensure that the site construction team is always working with the latest, fully coordinated, and approved-for-construction versions of all electrical documents.
• Assist in the compilation of the final as-built drawings and records, ensuring they accurately reflect all electrical changes and deviations.
