Lead and develop a cross-functional team comprising design supervisors, engineers, designers, and
draftsmen across concurrent EPC and manufacturing projects, ensuring on-time delivery of engineering
packagesfrom bid through commissioning.
Oversee daily departmental activities includingtask allocation, workload balancing, and progress tracking
fordesigners and draftsmen, ensuring alignmentwith projectschedules and deliverable deadlines.
Establish and manage departmental workflows, standard operating procedures, and draftingstandards to
ensure consistency, quality, and efficiency across all projectdeliverables.
Manage 2-3 simultaneous EPC projects concurrently, overseeing full lifecycle delivery from bid
preparation through site commissioning.
Monitor and control overall engineering project budgets, tracking manhour expenditure against planned
budgets, identifyingvariances early, and implementingcorrective actionsto maintain financialtargets.
Prepare and present periodic project status reports and budget utilization summaries to senior
management, highlighting risks, schedule deviations, and mitigation strategies.
Oversee resource planning and departmental capacity management, forecasting manpower requirements
across upcoming project phases and coordinatingtimely mobilization ofdesign resources.
Leading an ongoing internal study to integrate Stress Analysis with CADWorx drafting workflows targeting
a projected 30-40% reduction in manhours, human error, and inter-discipline data handling.
Conduct regular design coordination meetings and inter-discipline reviews — encompassing civil and
instrumentation deliverables — to identify interface impacts, resolve clashes, maintain drawing issue
status, and guide the piping team in incorporating necessary revisions across drawings, layouts, and
associated documentation to ensure overall deliverable integrity.
Leading an internal study on the application of CIPP (Cured-In-Place Pipe) technology for the
rehabilitation of existing GRP pipeline systems, evaluating technical feasibility and cost-effectiveness as
an alternativeto pipe replacement.
Managed technical review and approval of vendor documentation across procurement and engineering
phases ofmultiple simultaneous EPC projects.
Represented the organization as a technical exhibitor at GCC industry forums to strengthen brand
positioning in the non-metallic piping market, while actively supporting the sales team during the bidding
stage by resolving customer technical queries, clarifying product and system capabilities, and providing
engineering inputto enhance proposal credibility and competitiveness.

Served as engineering project lead for multiple EPC and manufacturing projects.
Delivered 35 engineering IFCs within 2 months on a fast-track BIM-based EPC project for Jeddah Airport-2
ISTP formally recognized by p2m Berlins Engineering Managerfor exceptional dedication.
Managed the alternate Seawater Supply/Return Piping Project for Maaden Ammonia (2020-21), actively
leading the full engineering scope from design through IFC submission, and extending hands-on
participation across procurement activities and site mobilization, serving as Mechanical Superintendent to
oversee and execute site installation activities through to completion.
Executed IGCC Power Block Demin Water Return Line - Jizan KSA (2021) for Saudi Aramco, meeting strict
schedule and quality requirements.
Developed innovative site repair solutions — Hot Tapping, GRP BOX, and online weeping repair — now
adopted as standard emergency response methods within the organization for live GRP systems.
Carried out multiple Root Cause Analysis (RCA) investigations on GRP piping failures, translating findings
into preventive engineering measures that extended system service life and reduced repeat failures.
Collaborated with turnaround inspection teams at SABIC and TASNEE plants to assess buried GRP
systems, classifying failure severity and implementing mitigation procedures that prevented unplanned
shutdowns.
Certified Internal Auditor for ISO 9001:2015 — independently developed and conducted audit procedures
across engineering operations.
