Engineering oversight role in the design phase, representing the client/developer to ensure compliance, integration, and sustainability across hospitality, infrastructure, and mixed-use assets. • Review mechanical design packages (HVAC, plumbing, fire protection) during concept, detailed, and IFC stages for hotels and utilities. • Coordinate with consultants, peer reviewers, and infrastructure providers to resolve design gaps and align with the master plan. • Support preparation of RFPs and design briefs, providing mechanical scope inputs for procurement. • Participate in design coordination workshops and technical reviews, ensuring multi-discipline alignment. • Contribute to sustainability initiatives by supporting the integration of solar plumbing systems, efficient HVAC, and water reuse solutions. • Track design risks and escalate issues with recommended mitigation actions. • Work with internal teams (development, cost, operations) to align designs with lifecycle and budget requirements. Key Projects (Design Phase – Client Role): • Luxury & Economic-Class Hospitality Developments – multiple 3–5 star hotels and mixed-use clusters. • District Utilities – including district cooling plants, greywater/RO treatment facilities, and automated waste collection systems. • Cultural & Mixed-Use Master Plans – large-scale urban and heritage projects integrating hospitality, transport, and public realm infrastructure.

Client-side representative for Saudi Aramco PMT, supporting the execution of infrastructure, pipelines, and utilities projects. • Supervised on-site construction and installation works for pipelines, mechanical systems, and utilities, ensuring alignment with project schedules and approved designs. • Coordinated with contractors, inspectors, and engineering teams to resolve execution challenges, reducing downtime and maintaining workflow continuity. • Monitored project progress against the baseline schedule, supported recovery planning, and escalated delays with mitigation strategies. • Reviewed and processed method statements, technical submittals, and work permits to ensure readiness for execution. • Collaborated with QA/QC and engineering departments to secure approvals and keep work packages moving forward. • Prepared and delivered progress reports and risk updates to Aramco PMT management, contributing to informed decision-making. • Enforced strict HSE procedures on-site, ensuring compliance with Aramco standards and maintaining a zero lost-time injury record. Key Projects (Execution – Client Role): • Berri Pipeline Project (Oil & Gas Infrastructure) – supported execution of a major offshore and onshore pipeline expansion, including oil and gas pipelines crossing marine environments, delivered under Aramco’s project management and HSE standards.

During my training at KEMYA, I was exposed to key areas of industrial work, including basic mechanical systems, safety culture, and plant operations. Rotating between departments allowed me to observe team dynamics, review technical documentation, and understand how different functions contribute to overall system performance. This experience gave me a practical introduction to real engineering environments and helped shape my mindset as an engineer.
