Professional Profile:
Highly qualified Civil and Structural Design Engineer currently based in Riyadh, KSA, with over 5 years of progressive engineering experience spanning structural design, high-rise building analysis, seismic engineering, foundation design, and construction cost estimation. Holds a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering from the University of Engineering and Technology (UET) Taxila, Pakistan, and is a Registered Engineer with the Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC — CIVIL/071319).
Specialist in reinforced concrete design and steel structure design for high-rise buildings up to 55 storeys, with proven proficiency in ETABS, SAFE, AutoCAD, Revit (BIM), Sap 2000, STAAD Pro and Idea StatiCa. Fully conversant with Saudi Building Code (SBC), ASCE 7, and ACI 318 — the exact standards governing structural engineering practice across the GCC and Gulf construction market.
Key Strengths as an Expatriate Candidate:
Gulf-Standard Technical Expertise:
All design work performed to Gulf construction standards — SBC, ASCE 7, ACI 318. Familiar with GCC project environments, client expectations, and construction methodologies applicable across Saudi Arabia, UAE, and the wider Gulf region.
High-Rise Project Portfolio:
Proven track record on landmark high-rise developments including the 55-storey Mount Khalid Tower (PKR 4.2 billion), Blue World Trade Centre (29 storeys, 500ft, PKR 2.3 billion), and multiple Capital Smart City towers ranging from 45 to 55 storeys — providing directly relevant experience for large-scale KSA and Gulf construction projects.
International Collaboration Experience:
Collaborated with Surbana Jurong (Singapore-based global engineering consultancy) on Capital Smart City high-rise towers, and coordinated with Strong Force UAE (specialist post-tensioning contractor) on the 55-storey Mount Khalid Tower — demonstrating ability to work effectively within international, multicultural engineering environments.
Technical Competencies:
Structural Design: Reinforced Concrete Design, Steel Structure Design, High-Rise Buildings, Shear Wall Design, Seismic Analysis, Raft Foundation Design, Post-Tensioning Coordination
Software: ETABS, SAFE, AutoCAD, Revit (BIM), Idea StatiCa, STAAD (familiar), SAP 2000, PlanSwift, Bluebeam Revu
Multi-Disciplinary Versatility:
Beyond core structural design, brings additional expertise in structural cost estimation, BOQ preparation, value engineering, BIM coordination, and quantity take-off — offering a versatile engineering profile that adds value across multiple project functions.
Codes & Standards: Saudi Building Code (SBC), ASCE 7, ACI 318, Gulf construction standards
Cost & Estimation: BOQ preparation, Quantity Take-off, Value Engineering, Structural Cost Estimation
Career Objective:
Seeking a challenging Structural Design Engineer, Civil Engineer, or related engineering role within a reputable KSA or Gulf-based consultancy or contracting organization. Open to both design and site-based roles across Riyadh, Jeddah, and all KSA regions. Committed to long-term career growth within the Gulf construction market and to contributing to Vision 2030 infrastructure and development projects.
Bilingual & Culturally Adapted:
Proficient in English (professional working level), Native Urdu speaker, and actively learning Arabic. Already adapted to KSA working culture, Islamic work environment, and Gulf professional norms — reducing the cultural adjustment period that affects many newly arriving expatriates.
