• Review system architecture, interface-control information, network diagrams, device layouts, communications designs, power requirements, and equipment schedules.
• Participate in site investigations to verify existing conditions, communications availability, utility constraints, equipment locations, cabinet space, power, visibility, access, and constructability.
• Support preparation of technical comments, review matrices, non-conformance records, site observations, and engineering recommendations.
• Monitor ITS construction and installation activities, verifying they align with approved design documents and manufacturer requirements.
• Coordinate technical interfaces between ITS field equipment, traffic signals, communications networks, Advanced Traffic Management Systems (ATMS), iNET platforms, TCC systems, and external stakeholders.
• Review material submittals, shop drawings, method statements, installation details, test procedures, and commissioning documentation.
• Participate in factory acceptance tests, site acceptance tests, integration testing, commissioning, and operational-readiness activities.
• Support troubleshooting of field and integration issues during construction, testing, and early operations.
• Verify as-built documentation, equipment inventories, configuration records, test results, and handover materials before system acceptance.
• Contribute to the development of ITS guidelines, specifications, O&M procedures, implementation frameworks, and technical assessment reports for RCRC.
• Coordinate with specialists in roadway, traffic signal, communications, cybersecurity, electrical, civil engineering, and TCC operations to resolve multidisciplinary interface issues.
• Stay updated on emerging ITS technologies and provide recommendations for scalable, interoperable, and maintainable implementations in Riyadh.

What Required Skills You’ll Bring:

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Communications Engineering, Computer/Systems Engineering, Civil/Transportation Engineering, or a closely related discipline.
• 7+ years of experience in ITS design, technical specifications, design review, construction support, system integration, testing, or commissioning.
• Proven experience with field ITS systems such as CCTV, detection systems, DMS/VMS, communications, cabinets, and power systems.
• Experience in preparing and reviewing technical specifications, drawings, shop drawings, material submittals, method statements, and test documentation.
• Working knowledge of ITS communications networks, fiber-optic systems, Ethernet/IP, field cabinets, power distribution, grounding, environmental requirements, and basic cybersecurity considerations.
• Understanding of system integration concepts, interfaces, data exchange, and central traffic-management systems.
• Ability to conduct field inspections and evaluate installation quality, constructability, compliance, and operational readiness.
• Strong technical writing skills to document design comments, field observations, test findings, and corrective actions with clarity.
• Ability to interpret engineering drawings, specifications, equipment datasheets, and system architecture documentation.
• Excellent teamwork and coordination abilities across civil, electrical, communications, software, and traffic engineering disciplines.

What Desired Skills You’ll Bring:

• Previous ITS project experience in Saudi Arabia or the GCC.
• Familiarity with NTCIP, ONVIF, SNMP, REST/API integration, DATEX II, or other relevant ITS and communications standards.
• Experience with traffic control centers, ATMS platforms, iNET, TransSuite, or comparable traffic-management software.
• Background in adaptive traffic systems, ramp metering, emergency vehicle preemption, transit signal priority, automated incident detection, or connected-vehicle applications.
• Professional engineering registration or relevant ITS/network certification is an advantage.
• Arabic language skills are desirable but not required.
