- Develop conceptual, preliminary, and detailed design drawings and specifications.
- Evaluate structural systems for safety, durability, constructability, and cost-efficiency.
- Carry out design checks, peer reviews, and value engineering exercises.
2. Codes, Standards & Technical Compliance
- Apply relevant international and local design standards such as AASHTO LRFD, Eurocode, BS Standards, or DPWH Bridge Design Manuals.
- Ensure documentation complies with quality assurance procedures and audit requirements.
- Keep up to date with evolving engineering technologies, materials, and regulatory changes.
3. Project & Design Management
- Lead and coordinate design activities across multidisciplinary teams (geotechnical, highway, hydraulics, architecture, etc.).
- Prepare design schedules, work plans, and resource estimates.
- Support preparation of project proposals, technical reports, feasibility studies, and tender documents.
- Monitor progress, manage risks, and ensure deliverables meet scope, budget, and timelines.
4. Construction Support & Site Engineering
- Provide technical support during construction, including shop drawing review, RFI responses, and site inspections.
- Assess construction methodologies for structural feasibility and safety.
- Resolve engineering challenges encountered during construction.
5. Structural Assessment & Rehabilitation
- Conduct condition assessments, structural evaluations, and load rating analyses for existing bridges.
- Develop repair, strengthening, and retrofit strategies for aging or damaged infrastructure.
- Utilize structural health monitoring (SHM) data where applicable.
6. Leadership, Mentoring & Quality Assurance
- Provide technical guidance and mentoring to junior and mid-level engineers.
- Conduct internal technical training and knowledge-sharing sessions.
- Serve as a subject-matter expert in structural engineering and bridge design.
7. Stakeholder Engagement
- Coordinate with clients, contractors, government agencies, and partners.
- Present technical information clearly to non-technical stakeholders.
- Attend coordination meetings, design reviews, and project workshops.
