  • Run TBEs, vendor clarifications, and FAT/SAT; oversee skid integration, piping interfaces, alignment, and preservation.

  • Support construction & pre-commissioning/commissioning: run-ins, vibration/temperature/oil analysis, performance tests.

  • Lead RCFA on bad actors; implement permanent fixes and spare strategies.

  • Manage quality/ITPs, punch closure, as-built/O&M dossiers; mentor 1–2 junior rotating engineers.

  • Coordinate with Process, E&I, Controls, and Project Controls to protect scope, schedule, and budget.

You bring

  • 10+ years in rotating equipment on O&G projects; confident with API 617/618/610/614.

  • Practical field experience (alignment, run-in, vibration diagnostics) and OEM/vendor management.

  • Degree in Mechanical Engineering (or related). Clear communicator; UAE experience is a plus.
