Install, terminate, test/commission, and maintain ELV/ICT systems—structured cabling (copper & fiber), Wi-Fi, PABX/VoIP, intercom/door phone, CCTV, access control, SMATV/IPTV, PA/BGM, and basic BMS/FA interfaces—per project specs and international standards (e.g., TIA-568/569/606/607, ISO/IEC 11801) and local authority/provider requirements (e&/du, SCD)—delivering safe, reliable, neatly documented installations under Sharjah weather and traffic/logistics constraints.
Read IFC/shop drawings, riser diagrams, rack elevations, device layouts; raise RFIs for conflicts.
Verify builder’s works: conduits/sleeves, back boxes, wall/floor cores, firestopping details, power/earthing availability in racks/IDFs.
Coordinate entry routes with Telecom Liaison (e&/du) and separation from power/EMI sources.
Pull, dress, and secure UTP/FTP and fiber per TIA/SMACNA routing practices; maintain bend radius, fill ratios, and support spacing.
Terminate copper on patch panels/keystones (T568B unless specified); terminate fiber (pigtail fusion splice) and manage ODFs with trays & dust caps.
Install racks, ladders, trays, trunking; provide bonding/earthing per TIA-607; fit PDUs and cable managers.
Mount WAPs, cameras, readers, intercoms, speakers, splitters/taps, and headend gear to approved locations/heights.
Configure basics (with IT/security engineer guidance): IP addressing, PoE verification, NVR camera mapping, access control panel I/O, time schedules.
Set antenna alignment/levels for SMATV; balance PA/BGM zones and test paging/evac priorities if specified.
Certify copper links (permanent link) with Fluke DSX/DTX or equivalent; perform fiber OTDR/OLTS tests and document loss budgets.
Verify PoE load, link speed, and device registration; perform video/stream tests and short retention checks on NVRs.
Prove access control logic (reader → controller → lock, RTE, door contact, fail-safe/fail-secure) and FA door-release interface.
Produce test reports, labeling schedules (TIA-606), rack elevations, and as-built mark-ups.
Routine checks: patching discipline, rack cleanliness, filter/fan condition, UPS/battery health (if provided), camera focus/IR, time sync, access control backups.
Respond to call-outs; diagnose cabling vs. device faults; replace failed components; update logs.
Work to method statements/ITPs; present MIR/WIR inspections.
Keep penetrations firestopped and labeled; protect finished surfaces; maintain tidy work areas.
HSE: working at height (ladders/MEWPs), laser/fiber eye safety, ESD protection for electronics, LOTO for power in racks, good housekeeping.
Heat & Humidity
Schedule rooftop/façade and outdoor device works early morning/evening; comply with MOHRE summer midday break.
Ensure telecom/EQ rooms have ventilation/AC; protect racks and electronics from high ambient; allow extended cure times for adhesives/sealants.
Dust/Sand
Keep racks and ODFs closed; cap unused ports/connectors; clean device lenses and filters before commissioning; seal open conduits.
Occasional Rain/Coastal Influence
Use weatherproof enclosures/glands for external cameras/intercoms; maintain drip loops; corrosion-resistant fixings where specified.
Traffic & Logistics
Plan off-peak deliveries for racks/cabinets; arrange SRTA/Police permits if curbside unloading or MEWP use affects roads; stage materials without overloading slabs and keep egress routes clear.
ITI/Diploma in Electrical/Telecom/IT (or equivalent).
5–8 years ELV/ICT installation & commissioning (UAE/GCC preferred) on low/mid-rise buildings.
Hands-on with structured cabling, fiber splicing/OTDR, CCTV/IP networks, access control basics, SMATV/PA.
Familiar with TIA-568/569/606/607, ISO/IEC 11801 and provider requirements (e&/du).
Basic networking (VLAN/PoE/DHCP/NTP) and documentation skills; English required (Arabic/Urdu/Hindi an advantage).
Cable certifier (Fluke DSX/DTX), OTDR & light source/power meter, fusion splicer & cleaver, visual fault locator, PoE tester, tone/probe kit, punch-down & crimp tools, labeler (heat-shrink), laptop, camera focus charts, SPL meter (PA), ladders/MEWP, PPE (eye/hand/respiratory as needed).

Clean terminations & certified test results
IP device bring-up and basic troubleshooting
Firestopping & authority-compliant workmanship
Documentation discipline and cross-trade coordination
≥ 98–100% pass rate on copper/fiber certification first submission.
