Job description

Package: 18 LPA – 20 LPA

Experience: 8 Yrs – 12 Yrs

Reports To: Director of Operations

Job Purpose

To lead the Design function in interpreting customer, project and engineering requirements and delivering technically sound, manufacturable and compliant designs for SWOP Engineering's engineered mechanical products and equipment.

The role will provide technical leadership to the design team, oversee design layouts, component selection, detailed drawings, Bills of Materials (BOM), design verification and engineering documentation, while working closely with Manufacturing, Quality, Purchase, Projects and other functions to ensure successful execution from design to shop floor.

Key Responsibilities

• Interpret customer specifications, technical requirements, engineering standards, drawings and project inputs and convert them into practical engineering designs.
• Design and develop mechanical components, assemblies, equipment and systems based on product and project requirements.
• Prepare general arrangement drawings, detailed manufacturing drawings, assembly drawings, fabrication drawings and other shop-floor documentation.
• Develop and maintain accurate Bill of Materials (BOM), part lists, material specifications and component specifications for assemblies and products.
• Carry out appropriate material and component selection based on design requirements, operating conditions, service requirements, applicable standards and manufacturability.
• Develop equipment layouts, interfaces, dimensions, tolerances and assembly details considering functionality, reliability, manufacturability and ease of maintenance.
• Perform and/or support design calculations, engineering assessments and Design Verification, including FEA analysis where applicable, using appropriate engineering software.
• Apply relevant engineering codes, standards and specifications, including API, ASME, AWS and other applicable industry/customer requirements.
• Develop designs for a range of engineered mechanical equipment, pressure-control equipment, manifolds, piping-related assemblies, machined components, fabricated structures, skids and associated equipment, as applicable to the company's product portfolio.
• Review existing designs and drawings and identify opportunities for design improvement, standardisation, cost optimisation, weight reduction and manufacturability improvement.
• Ensure that drawings and BOMs accurately reflect the approved design and are suitable for procurement, manufacturing, inspection and assembly.
• Work closely with the Manufacturing / Production team to resolve shop-floor design issues, clarify drawings and incorporate practical manufacturing feedback.
• Coordinate with Quality and Inspection teams to ensure that design requirements, critical dimensions, materials, testing requirements and inspection criteria are adequately defined.
• Coordinate with Purchase / Procurement for technical specifications, material requirements, bought-out components and vendor-related engineering clarifications.
• Interface with Project, Production, Quality, Purchase and other process owners to ensure smooth execution of engineering deliverables.
• Coordinate with third-party inspection, certification and approval agencies wherever required and incorporate technically approved comments or design changes.
• Review and incorporate customer, consultant, inspection agency and internal review comments into drawings and engineering documentation.
• Maintain proper drawing revisions, BOM revisions, design records and engineering documentation to ensure design traceability and configuration control.
• Participate in Design Reviews, DFMA reviews, Root Cause Analysis and continuous improvement initiatives related to product design and manufacturing.
• Provide technical support during manufacturing, assembly, testing and inspection and assist in resolving design-related non-conformities.
• Ensure that all design outputs are released accurately and within the required project timelines.

Required Technical Competencies

• Strong understanding of mechanical design principles, manufacturing processes, machining, fabrication and assembly.
• Ability to interpret and develop engineering drawings, assembly drawings, layouts and manufacturing/shop-floor drawings.
• Good knowledge of BOM preparation, material specifications, component selection and
• Working knowledge of ASME Pressure Vessel calculations and design principles will be an advantage, but the role is not limited to pressure-vessel design.
• Good understanding of applicable API, ASME, AWS and other engineering standards and customer specifications.
• Knowledge of dimensional tolerances, GD&T, welding, machining, fabrication and material selection.
• Experience in CAD/3D modelling and drafting software such as SolidWorks, AutoCAD, Creo or equivalent.
• Experience with FEA/engineering analysis software such as ANSYS or equivalent will be an advantage.
• Ability to understand and work with P&IDs, equipment layouts, technical specifications and
• Ability to translate engineering concepts into manufacturing-ready drawings and BOMs.

Cross-Functional Responsibilities

The position will work closely with:

The Design Engineer is expected to ensure that engineering outputs are not only technically correct but also manufacturable, inspectable, procurable and practical for shop-floor execution.
