    Job description

    WHY ARTELIA?

    Join Artelia, an international engineering, consulting and project management group delivering complex and sustainable projects across infrastructure, buildings, mobility, water and energy.

    In the Middle East, you’ll join a multicultural and growing environment where you can take ownership and make a visible impact.

    THE ROLE

    An experienced Drainage Engineer is responsible for planning, analyzing, designing and support delivery of stormwater, surface-water and subsurface-drainage systems for airside and landside airport infrastructure. The role applies hydrological and hydraulic engineering, flood-risk management, pollution control, sustainable drainage and multidisciplinary coordination to protect aircraft and vehicle operations, pavements, buildings, utilities and the environment.

    Key Responsibilities

    • Hydrology & Flood-Risk Assessment: Establish core criteria, build hydraulic models for major airport infrastructure, and craft robust flood mitigation strategies for extreme weather events.
    • Stormwater & Infrastructure Design: Size and design everything from traditional pipe networks, attenuation facilities, and pumping stations to complex apron drainage (including oil interception and de-icing containment).
    • Sustainability & Resilience: Champion nature-based solutions, climate resilience, and water-quality treatments tailored to strict aviation safety requirements.
    • BIM & Cross-Discipline Coordination: Collaborate across teams to resolve clashes in federated models, maintain data integrity within the Common Data Environment (CDE), and streamline construction handovers.
    • Smart Engineering & Digital Delivery: Utilize approved AI and automation tools to process data, check model constraints, and optimize deliverables safely within cybersecurity guidelines.

    What We're Looking For

    • Bachelor’s degree in civil engineering from a recognized institution; a master’s degree in hydraulics, hydrology or water-resources engineering is advantageous.
    • Minimum eight years of relevant drainage and stormwater-design experience, including at least three years on airports or major infrastructure projects.
    • Hands-on capability in hydraulic and hydrological software such as Civil 3D / Storm and Sanitary Analysis, InfoDrainage, MicroDrainage, HEC-RAS, HEC-HMS, SWMM or equivalent.
    • Sound knowledge of rainfall analysis, IDF development, rational and hydrograph methods, hydraulic grade lines, open-channel flow, detention, infiltration and flood-risk assessment.
    • Experience with airport apron drainage, pollution control, pavement drainage, sustainable drainage and multidisciplinary grading coordination.
    • Advanced AutoCAD and Civil 3D capability; experience with GIS, BIM coordination and Common Data Environment workflows is advantageous.
    • Competence in AI-assisted engineering workflows, output validation, data-protection awareness and documentation of assumptions.
    • Site experience in drainage construction, inspection, testing, temporary works or commissioning is advantageous.
