About us

Peltra Energy is a fast-growing sustainable biomass company working across biomass pellets, compressed biogas (CBG), and biochar for Indian and export markets. We’re building out our pellet manufacturing capability and are looking for a hands-on engineer to own the technical side of our plants — from machinery evaluation through to running lines on the ground.

The role

This is a core technical role for someone who has actually run pellet plants — not just studied them. You’ll be our in-house authority on pellet-plant machinery and process, guiding decisions from equipment selection all the way to commissioning and optimisation.

What you’ll do

- Evaluate pellet-plant machinery and complete lines — assess specifications, build quality, output, energy consumption and suitability for Indian feedstock and conditions
- Lead plant design and layout — line sizing, material flow, utilities and balance-of-plant
- Oversee erection, installation and commissioning of pelletizing lines on site
- Optimise process parameters to hit GCV, moisture, ash, durability and throughput targets
- Troubleshoot mechanical and process issues — dies, rollers, hammer mills, dryers, coolers, conveying
- Advise on feedstock handling, drying and quality control
- Work with suppliers and fabricators on sourcing, spares and maintenance planning

Who we’re looking for (please read before applying)

- Direct,



hands-on experience with biomass pellet or briquette plants — erection, commissioning and/or operations & maintenance
- Strong working knowledge of ring-die / flat-die pelletizers, hammer mills, dryers and coolers
- Understanding of biomass fuel quality parameters (GCV, moisture, ash, bulk density, durability) and how process settings affect them
- Degree/diploma in Mechanical, Chemical, Energy or related engineering
- Comfortable being in office in India and travelling to plant locations as needed
- Problem-solver who can work independently and take ownership

Nice to have

- Experience across multiple pellet plant capacities (e.g. 1–5 TPH)
- Exposure to agro-residue feedstocks and seasonal supply handling
- Familiarity with Indian biomass regulations and schemes

Why Peltra

You’ll have real ownership, direct access to the founders, and the chance to shape a pellet manufacturing operation from the ground up as we scale.

How to apply

Send your CV to [email protected] or DM me directly. To help us move fast, please include in your message:

1. The pellet/briquette plants you’ve personally worked on (capacity, your role, location)
2. Your years of hands-on plant experience
3. Your current location and notice period

Applications without specific pellet-plant experience won’t be considered — we’re looking for someone who has done this, not learned it in theory.
