The Biomedical Engineer is expected to manage, maintain and troubleshoot medical equipment across NMC Healthcare facilities. Responsibilities typically include equipment inspections, preventive and corrective maintenance, calibration, safety testing, installation support, technical documentation and coordination with approved vendors. Candidates should hold a bachelor’s degree in Biomedical Engineering or a related discipline, with practical hospital or healthcare technology experience. Knowledge of medical-device standards, maintenance procedures, risk assessment and regulatory requirements is valuable. The role requires strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, clear communication and the ability to respond promptly to equipment issues. Familiarity with computerized maintenance management systems and relevant UAE healthcare regulations may also be expected.

Usual for Healthcare jobs in the UAE, varies by employer. Checked November 2026.
Senior staff often get more than line staff, for example a single room or a yearly home flight. Ask the employer what the job includes before you accept.
How it works: Employer-sponsored permit; the portal lists no local-first test. Physicians and lab technicians must pass local licence exams (emirate or federal health authority).
Before you apply: Nurses, doctors and most allied health staff must be registered or licensed locally before they start: expect checks on your degree and licence, often an English test, and often an exam or an assessment. Ask the employer who handles it and how long it takes. Most pharma and device office jobs do not need it.
Watch for: The portal does not name nurses: ask the hospital which licence and exams your role needs, who books them and who pays.
Never pay anyone for a visa or a job offer. A real employer pays the permit costs and never asks you for money.
