Job Description Overview

AtkinsR alis is seeking a Plant 3D Piping & P&ID Designer to join our Global Technology Centre (GTC) in Mumbai. The Plant 3D Piping & P&ID Designer is responsible for developing accurate 3D piping models, layouts, P&IDs, and related engineering deliverables using Autodesk Plant 3D in support of multidisciplinary projects across Industrial Plants, Minerals & Metals, Conventional & Renewable Power, and Nuclear facilities. The role involves routing piping with consideration for process flow, equipment access, maintenance, safety, constructability, and future expansion while incorporating sector-specific constraints such as high-volume utilities, abrasive slurry services, high-pressure steam systems, and nuclear safety-class and seismic requirements.

Your role

• Responsibilities include developing and maintaining P&IDs based on process inputs, ensuring compliance with applicable ASME and ANSI standards, generating isometrics, fabrication drawings, BOMs, tie-in details, equipment layouts, and construction drawings, and participating in 30%, 60%, and 90% model reviews using Navisworks.

• The designer works closely with process, mechanical, civil/structural, electrical, instrumentation, safety, and quality teams to resolve clashes, address constructability issues, maintain consistent CAD standards, and produce audit-ready documentation.

• Develop detailed 3D piping models in Autodesk Plant 3D for industrial, mining, power and nuclear plants.

• Route piping considering process flow, equipment accessibility, maintenance, expansion, and safety requirements.

• Incorporate sector-specific constraints such as:

  • Industrial: high-volume utilities, continuous process layout.

  • M&M: abrasive slurry lines, rugged environments, large equipment footprints.

  • Power: high-pressure steam lines, turbine building layout constraints.

• Nuclear: strict safety-class piping, seismic considerations, redundancy.

• Develop, update, and maintain P&IDs in line with process engineering input.

• Ensure compliance with sector-relevant standards (e.g., ASME, ANSI).

• Generate piping isometrics, fabrication drawings, BOMs, tie-in details, equipment layout drawings, and support drawings.

• Work closely with process, mechanical, civil/structural, electrical, instrumentation, safety, and quality teams.

• Participate in 30%, 60% and 90% model reviews using Navisworks or similar tools.

• Resolve design clashes, construction feasibility issues, and ensure alignment with project execution strategy.

• Maintain consistent CAD standards, design methodologies and practices.

• Produce documentation suitable for audits.

• Required Qualifications:

• Degree / Diploma or ITI in Mechanical Engineering, Piping Design, or related discipline.

About you
