Role Summary
We are seeking a qualified and experienced Structural Engineer to join our solar energy project team. The candidate will be responsible for the structural analysis, design, and engineering of solar module mounting structures including ground-mounted, rooftop, and carport solar systems. The role demands robust competency in STAAD.Pro for structural analysis and a thorough understanding of foundation design for varying soil conditions and site environments.

Key Responsibilities
Structural Analysis & Design• Carry out detailed structural analysis of solar module mounting structures using STAAD.Pro
• Design steel and aluminium sub-structures including fixed-tilt, single-axis tracker, and ballasted rooftop systems
• Perform load calculations: dead load, live load, wind load (IS 875 / ASCE 7), seismic load (IS 1893), snow load as applicable
• Design connections, welds, and bolted joints as per IS 800 / AISC standards
• Validate structural adequacy against codal requirements and project specifications
• Conduct fatigue analysis for tracker structures subject to cyclic loading




• Ensure design complies with IS 875 Parts 1–3, IS 1893, and IS 800 for all applicable load combinations including dead, live, wind, seismic, and uplift
• Account for all critical load combinations including uplift, overturning, and lateral loads with specific attention to edge zones, tilt angles, and tracker stow conditions

Foundation Design• Design shallow and deep foundations (isolated footings, raft foundations, pile foundations, helical piles, ground screws)
• Carry out soil–structure interaction studies based on geotechnical investigation reports
• Analyse and design pile caps, grade beams, and anchor bolt systems
• Review and interpret borehole logs, soil test reports, and geotechnical recommendations
• Optimise foundation solutions for varying soil bearing capacities and water table conditions
• Design foundations for seismic zones and expansive/soft soil conditions
• Ensure fou
