Senior Project Engineer — Facilities & EHS

Abu Dhabi·Posted today
Role Overview: Orbitworks is seeking a Senior Project Engineer to lead the delivery of facility expansion and infrastructure projects supporting the growth of our satellite manufacturing and operations capabilities. As part of the Facilities & Maintenance team, you’ll turn business and operational requirements into completed, commissioned, and usable facilities — including cleanrooms, production and technical spaces, offices, and the building services and utilities that support them. You’ll own delivery from requirements definition and technical scoping through contractor selection, construction, commissioning, and handover. You’ll work autonomously across internal teams and external contractors, anticipating constraints and resolving technical and commercial issues while keeping schedule, cost, quality, and safety under control. A central part of the role is executing construction work within an occupied, operating facility — without disrupting production, testing, or other business activities. The role also carries a practical EHS remit: working directly with employees and contractors to identify hazards, implement effective controls, investigate incidents and near misses, and build stronger safe-working practices across the site.
