Job description

CRA designs and manufacturescustom-engineered systems for the Energy and Defence sectors. We delivercomplex projects end-to-end, entirely in-house, combining design, engineering,and manufacturing under one roof. Our systems are trusted by leading organisationsincluding BrahMos Aerospace, ONGC, Indian Air Force, and Schlumberger.

Role Overview

You will lead mechanical designfor CRA’s equipment and packages, and the design engineers and draughtsmen whoproduce it. This is a hands-on role. You will do and check design calculations,approve drawings and BOMs before release, and work with our fabrication shop sodesigns are practical and economical to build.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead mechanical design of vessels and columns, combustionchambers and stacks, refractory-lined equipment, and skid-mounted andcontainerised systems
  
• Perform and check design calculations: ASME Section VIII Div1, wind and seismic design of stacks and structures, nozzle loads, lifting andskid frames
  
• Check and approve GA drawings, fabrication drawings and 3Dmodels before release
  
• Own the engineering BOM for each project and release it toprocurement and production
  
• Own drawing standards, numbering and revision control formechanical deliverables
  
• Design for manufacture and cost: material selection,standard plate and pipe sizes, weld details the shop can build
  
• Prepare specifications for bought-out mechanical items, andreview vendor offers and drawings
  
• Resolve shop-floor queries and NCRs, and support inspection,hydrotest, FAT and site commissioning
  
• Work with process and E&I engineers on layouts, nozzleorientation, access and maintainability
  
• Mentor and develop design engineers and draughtsmen.
  

Requirements

• B.E./B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering
  
• 8 to 12 years in mechanical design of process equipment with an OEM,fabricator or EPC, including at least 2 years checking other engineers’drawings and calculations
  
• Hands-on with ASME Section VIII Div 1 and ASME B31.3, using PV Elite orequivalent
  
• Proficient in AutoCAD and at least one 3D tool (SolidWorks, Inventor orAutoCAD Plant 3D)
  
• Sound fabrication knowledge: welding, materials including stainlesssteels, NDT and inspection
  
• Able to read a P&ID and heat and mass balance well enough tochallenge them
  
• Preferred: flares, thermal oxidisers or refractory-lined equipment; stack design to IS6533 or ASME STS-1; compressor and blower skids; EN 13445/PED; Caesar II;export projects.
  
• Competitive compensation
  
• Medical insurance
  
• Learning and development support
  
• Opportunity towork on critical projects in energy and defence.
