Hi, sorry to say that no you cannot work under family visit visa, until you get transfer to the company's sponsorship. Some companies take you in condition that you get transfer immediately.

To put it more clearly, you CAN look but if you get a job, you would need to move to a work visa. And the transfer is not easy from family to work (is easy the other way round) - depends on nationality and other factors and in most cases, you will have to go OUT of Saudi, do the same processes as a new work visa applicant would and then come back in.
