Project Engineer

About the role

The Project Engineer is embedded in the project delivery team, working alongside the Project Manager and cross-disciplinary consultants to plan, coordinate and execute construction activities to the highest standards of quality, safety and efficiency. Beyond day-to-day site coordination, the role expects proactive thinking: spotting constructability issues early, proposing alternative construction methods and contributing to value engineering.

Key responsibilities

• Study and interpret structural, architectural and M&E drawings, identifying coordination gaps, constructability concerns and design clashes before site work begins
• Develop method statements and work sequences for complex structural and architectural works
• Prepare short-term construction programmes linked to the master programme, flagging critical path activities and proposing recovery measures
• Coordinate with consultants and the design team on technical queries, managing the RFA/RFI process
• Identify technical challenges such as ground conditions, structural interfaces, sequencing conflicts or material constraints and propose practical, engineered solutions
• Support the Project Manager with technical submissions, including temporary works designs
• Take part in value engineering exercises and identify opportunities for standardisation, prefabrication or DfMA to improve productivity and reduce waste
• Contribute to post-project reviews by documenting successful solutions and lessons learned
• Ensure temporary works such as falsework, formwork, shoring and excavation support are designed, checked and approved by a competent person
• Take part in weekly safety inspections and toolbox talks

Required profile

• Bachelor's degree or professional degree in Civil Engineering or equivalent
• At least 3 years of working experience in Singapore in a related field
