As we continue to strengthen our R&D capabilities, we are looking for passionate, self-driven engineers who enjoy solving real-world engineering challenges and aspire to develop next-generation process equipment and technologies.

Role Overview

This role is for engineers who see simulation as an engineering tool—not just a software application. You will work on challenging problems involving fluid flow, mixing, heat transfer, structural integrity and equipment optimization, transforming engineering concepts into validated industrial solutions. You will play a key role in new product development, technology innovation and solving complex customer and manufacturing challenges.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead simulation-driven research and development for new and existing Chemical Process Equipment.
• Develop and optimize Chemical Process Equipment using CFD and FEA.
• Design and optimize agitators and mixing systems for liquid-liquid, solid-liquid, gas-liquid and multiphase applications.
• Perform engineering analysis related to mixing, heat transfer, reaction processes, flow behaviour, structural performance, vibration and thermal stresses.
• Develop customized engineering solutions based on customer applications and emerging industry requirements.
• Investigate customer and manufacturing challenges through simulation, root-cause analysis and engineering validation.
• Validate simulation results through engineering calculations, experimental studies and field performance wherever applicable.
• Translate simulation outcomes into practical, reliable and manufacturable design improvements.
• Prepare technical reports, engineering documentation and design recommendations for R&D projects.
• Support manufacturing during product development and commercialization by resolving technical and design-related challenges.
• Collaborate with R&D, Design, Manufacturing, Process Engineering, Quality and Commercial teams to develop innovative products and technologies.
• Stay updated with advancements in simulation methodologies, materials, manufacturing processes and mixing technologies to drive continuous innovation.

Desired Profile

• M.E./M.Tech with 4–8 years of relevant industrial experience in CFD and FEA, preferably in process equipment, pressure vessels, or related engineering industries.
• Strong engineering fundamentals in Fluid Mechanics, Heat & Mass Transfer, Transport Phenomena, Mixing Technology, Structural Mechanics and Numerical Methods, with the ability to apply first-principles thinking to solve complex industrial problems.
• Demonstrated track record of using simulation to solve real-world engineering challenges and converting analytical insights into practical, validated engineering solutions.
• Self-motivated, result-oriented and passionate about engineering excellence, with a strong sense of ownership and accountability.
• Ability to independently plan, execute and deliver R&D and simulation projects while effectively managing priorities, timelines, risks and cross-functional coordination.
• Excellent analytical, communication and project management skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively across Design, Manufacturing, Process Engineering, Quality and Customer Support teams.
• Exposure to experimental validation, prototype development, or product testing will be an added advantage.
• Proficient with COMSOL Multiphysics, ANSYS Fluent, ANSYS Mechanical, M-Star CFD, SolidWorks, AutoCAD or equivalent simulation and CAD tools.
• Good academic background with publications, patents, or technical research contributions will be an added advantage.
