Airport Infrastructure Design Engineer

Role Overview: As an Airport Infrastructure Design Engineer at Dar, you will be responsible for the detailed design of airfield and landside infrastructure, including runways, taxiways, aprons, aircraft stands, roads, and parking facilities. Your role will involve focusing on geometric design, grading, earthworks, signing & marking, simulation, and BIM integration to deliver accurate and standards-compliant design packages. Effective coordination with other engineering disciplines such as drainage, utilities, and fueling will be essential to ensure optimized and safe designs are delivered. Key Responsibilities: - Prepare detailed geometric designs for runways, taxiways, aprons, stands, airside roads, access roads, and parking layouts. - Develop grading plans, cut-and-fill calculations, and earthworks balance for airside and landside areas. - Produce design drawings and Bills of Quantities (BoQs) extracted from BIM models. - Design airfield and landside signing & marking layouts in accordance with standards (ICAO/FAA/local standards). - Support stand and gate design optimization, ensuring safe aircraft operations and integration of fueling pits, ground power, pre-conditioned air (PCA), and GSE routes. - Use AviPLAN for aircraft movement simulation, apron/stand clearance checks, and taxiway layout validation. - Conduct Ground Support Equipment (GSE) simulations to optimize apron operations and gate service layouts. - Apply BIM tools (Navisworks, Civil 3D) for 3D coordination, clash detection, and multi-discipline integration. - Apply international aviation and roads design standards and codes (ICAO, FAA, EASA, IATA, AASHTO) directly in the design process. - Ensure compliance with safety areas, separation distances, obstacle clearance, and marking/signing requirements. Qualifications Required: - Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering, Transportation Engineering, or equivalent. - Specialized training in airport/transportation design software is an asset. - 4+ years of experience in airport or transportation infrastructure design. - Proven track record in geometric design of airside and landside infrastructure. - Experience with signing & marking design, grading, BoQ preparation, and simulation. - Strong background in multidisciplinary coordination with drainage, utilities, and fueling systems.
