Guildhall is building a shortlist of Critical Facilities Shift Engineers ahead of new data centre operations contracts landing across Dubai. This is a talent pool for professionals who run live Tier III and Tier IV plant day to day — UPS, generators, switchgear, chillers and fire suppression — not a desk review of past projects. Several operations contracts are expected to be awarded in the coming months, and registered engineers will be the first called when roles open. If you are already running shifts on mission-critical infrastructure, this is a direct line to the next opening before it is advertised. The role • Run shift operations on UPS, generators, LV/MV switchgear, chillers and CRAH/CRAC units. • Respond to BMS and EPMS alarms, with root cause reporting. • Carry out planned and corrective maintenance under MOP, SOP and EOP procedures. • Apply strict change control across all maintenance activity. • Supervise vendors and FM technicians on shift. • Maintain uptime and SLA records across the shift.

  • 5+ years in data centre or mission-critical facilities operations • Hands-on experience on Tier III or Tier IV sites, colocation or hyperscale • Degree or diploma in electrical or mechanical engineering • Comfortable working a rotating 12-hour shift pattern • CDCP, CDCS, Uptime ATD/AOS or OEM certification is a strong plus
