Engineer - Systems Assurance

We're looking for a detail-oriented and analytical Engineer - Systems Assurance to join our team in Fujairah, United Arab Emirates. In this role, you will be responsible for ensuring the reliability, performance, and compliance of our critical systems through comprehensive testing, validation, and quality assurance processes. You will work collaboratively with engineering and operations teams to identify risks, implement solutions, and maintain the highest standards of system integrity. Responsibilities: Ensure civil works for rail infrastructure comply with systems assurance principles, including safety, reliability, availability, and maintainability (RAMS) throughout the project lifecycle. Implement and manage assurance processes in line with railway standards. Develop and maintain the Systems Assurance Plan covering design, construction, testing, and commissioning phases. Ensure full requirements traceability from employer requirements through design, construction, and final handover. Review civil design submissions to ensure compliance with safety-in-design and operational safety requirements for rail systems. Coordinate closely with track, signaling, MEP, utilities, and systems teams to manage civil interface requirements.

Track and close out safety-related non-conformances, audit findings, and assurance observations. Ensure proper management of design changes through configuration control and impact assessment on safety and performance. Support integration of civil works with railway systems during testing, integration, and commissioning stages. Verify that construction activities do not compromise operational safety, track geometry stability, or long-term durability. Ensure implementation of risk mitigation measures identified during safety and assurance studies. Support incident investigation and root cause analysis for civil-related safety or quality issues. Maintain assurance registers including risk logs, compliance matrices, and traceability records. Assist in preparation of safety cases, assurance evidence, and certification dossiers for handover to the client.
