Job Description
- Site Engineer System (Integrations & Deployment) — EGlobalSphere
- 1) Role Purpose
- Own the on-site technical delivery of EGlobalSphere projects end-to-end:
from site readiness + integration planning to installation supervision, configuration, commissioning, and handover—ensuring the solution works reliably with the client’s infrastructure (access gates, controllers, CCTV, LPR, network, servers, and digital identity flows). - 2) Scope of Work (What this engineer is responsible for)
- A) Pre-Deployment (Before going to site)
- Objective: avoid surprises on site and lock a clear deployment plan.
- Tasks
- Review contract scope, BoQ, drawings, and deployment assumptions.
- Conduct a Site Survey and prepare a Site Readiness Report covering:
- Network topology (LAN/VLAN/Wi-Fi), IP plan, firewall rules, ports
- Server location (on-prem/cloud), rack space, power/UPS
- Gate controller types, access readers, barrier gate model, turnstiles
- CCTV system/VMS details + camera specs and RTSP/ONVIF availability
- LPR camera placement & angles, lighting, lane geometry
- Existing database/users list format and onboarding workflow
- Produce a Deployment Method Statement:
- Step-by-step installation + configuration sequence
- Dependencies and responsibilities (Client vs EGlobalSphere)
- Risks + mitigations
- Prepare Integration Checklist (per subsystem):
- Access Control integration checklist
- CCTV/VMS integration checklist
- LPR integration checklist
- Apple/Google Wallet / digital identity onboarding checklist
- Coordinate with project manager for timeline, manpower, and materials.
- Deliverables
- Site Survey Report

- B) On-Site Deployment & Integration
- Objective: deploy cleanly with minimum downtime and controlled change.
- Tasks
- Coordinate site access permits, working hours, and safety requirements.
- Validate client readiness:
- Confirm power/UPS availability
- Confirm network availability + VLAN/IP assignments
- Confirm controller/VMS access credentials
- Supervise installation and verify physical integrity:
- Readers / controllers wiring checks
- Camera mounting alignment for LPR lanes
- Cabling continuity tests / labeling
- Configure on site:
- Device provisioning (controllers, cameras, LPR engines)
- Network settings (static IPs, DNS, gateway, NTP)
- EGlobalSphere platform setup: tenant/site/location structure
- Integration execution:
- Access gate open/close triggers, anti-passback rules (if required)
- CCTV stream ingestion + event mapping
- LPR recognition flow: whitelist/blacklist, confidence thresholds
- Digital identity issuance flow (wallet passes / QR / NFC) if in scope
- Maintain Issue Log and Daily Progress Reports.
- Enforce change control:
- document any deviation from plan
- obtain approval before any scope shift
- Deliverables
- Daily Report + Photo Documentation
- Installation Checklist (per location)
- Integration Checklist (passed/failed + notes)
- Updated As-Built diagrams (if changes)
- C) Testing, Commissioning & Go-Live
- Objective: ensure the system works as promised under real conditions.
- Testing
- Factory/bench tests (if applicable) and Site Acceptance Testing (SAT):
- Functional tests: access grant/deny, visitor flow, admin controls
- CCTV event triggering and playback verification
- LPR tests: day/night, speed variations, dirty plates, glare
- Load tests (basic): concurrent logins, entry peak simulation
- Validate reporting/dashboard accuracy (events, audit logs).
- Confirm backup and recovery approach (as per scope).
- Go-Live checklist execution and sign-off.
- Deliverables

- Laptop with SSH/RDP tools, network scanner, logs collector
- Network tools: ping, traceroute, Wireshark (optional), IP scanner
- Documentation templates: site survey, SAT sheets, issue log
- Standards
- IP naming conventions + labeling standard
- Device configuration backup standard
- Ticketing/issue tracking standard
- Security standard for credentials (never share passwords on WhatsApp)
- 4) Team Interfaces (Who the site engineer works with)
- Project Manager: scope, timeline, approvals, reporting
- Backend/Frontend Developers: API integration, bug fixes, releases
- AI/LPR Team: recognition tuning, camera spec alignment
- Client IT Team: network, VLAN, firewall rules, credentials
- Client Security/Operations: workflow validation, go-live acceptance
- Vendors/Contractors: cabling, gates, camera installers
- 5) KPIs (How success is measured)
- % sites deployed on time (vs baseline plan)
- First-time acceptance rate (SAT pass without major rework)
- Mean time to resolve site issues (MTTR)
- Punch list closure time
- Integration stability (downtime incidents post go-live)
- Documentation completeness score (handover package delivered 100%)
Job Requirements
