We are seeking a Bid Engineer to develop competitive and compliant Building Management System (BMS) and Fire Safety bid proposals.

- Preparing high-quality bid submissions by creating technical proposals, compliance documentation, system architectures, schedules, datasheets and clarification responses that are clear, accurate and competitive.
- Building accurate cost estimates by completing quantity take-offs, assessing engineering effort, evaluating supplier quotations and ensuring full alignment with tender requirements.
- Managing technical and commercial risks by identifying gaps, dependencies, constraints and uncertainties early, while documenting assumptions and recommending practical mitigation strategies.
- Enhancing bid competitiveness by applying commercial awareness and proposing value-driven solutions that balance compliance, performance, lifecycle value, cost and delivery risk.
- Collaborating with internal and external stakeholders by partnering with Sales, Bid Management, Engineering, Project Delivery, Procurement, suppliers and offshore teams to ensure complete and timely submissions.
- Supporting customer engagement and project handover by participating in site visits, technical discussions and tender clarifications, while ensuring a smooth transition of awarded projects to execution teams.
- Relevant engineering qualification with a degree or diploma in Electrical, Mechanical, Building Services, Controls, Automation or a related discipline.
- Experience in technical solution development or tendering with approximately 4-6 years of experience in Building Automation, Fire Safety, engineering, estimation, technical sales support or bid management.
- Strong technical expertise in BMS, Fire Safety systems, or both, with a willingness to broaden knowledge across both disciplines.
- Ability to interpret complex requirements and translate tender specifications, drawings and customer requirements into compliant, cost-effective and deliverable solutions.
- Experience preparing technical and commercial bid documentation including proposals, equipment selections, estimates, compliance statements and clarification responses.
- Excellent analytical, communication and organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities, collaborate with diverse stakeholders and maintain high attention to detail.
