Key Responsibilities

• Own engineering design standards and quality across all disciplines for water and wastewater treatment EPC projects

• Build and lead engineering teams across Process, Civil & Structural, Mechanical, Electrical, and Instrumentation disciplines, including career pathways from graduate engineer through to senior/lead levels

• Coordinate cross-disciplinary design interfaces on live projects, ensuring civil, mechanical, electrical, instrumentation, and process design come together cleanly

• At least 5 years of experience managing multi-disciplinary design teams, ideally within an EPC contractor or engineering consultancy

• Demonstrated track record delivering engineering design across multiple concurrent EPC projects, not just a single large project

• Working knowledge of Indian water/wastewater design codes and treatment technologies; familiarity with nature-based or remediation-based approaches is a plus

• Proficiency with relevant design and review tools (e.g. AutoCAD/Civil3D, process simulation software, electrical SLD tools)

• Experience building or running a structured graduate engineer / campus-hire pipeline is a plus

• Bachelor's degree in Civil, Mechanical, Chemical, or Environmental Engineering; a Master's degree is a plus
