Digital Twin Development - Manager / Assistant Manager / Engineer

Role Overview

The Digital Twin Development team is responsible for creating high-accuracy 3D models and digital replicas of pumping stations, pipelines, and industrial facilities. The role involves close collaboration with engineering, AI/ML, and software teams to deliver fully integrated digital-twin environments for iPUMPNET deployments.

Role & responsibilities

• Develop detailed digital twins for pumping stations, water infrastructure, and industrial layouts
• Build and manage 3D plant models using Bentley, Autodesk, Revit, Navisworks, Plant 3D, or similar platforms
• Interpret and convert engineering drawings (GA, P&ID, isometrics, electrical layouts) into accurate digital models
• Coordinate with mechanical, electrical, instrumentation, AI, and software teams for data integration
• Maintain a structured and updated digital-twin database for new and existing project sites
• Support design reviews, clash detection, and simulation workflows
• Ensure adherence to modelling standards, asset tagging, and documentation protocols
• Provide technical inputs during site surveys for modelling accuracy
• Collaborate with the software team for linking real-time IIoT data with digital models
• Prepare visualizations, walkthroughs, and reports for project presentation

Preferred candidate profile

• Experience with Bentley, Autodesk, Revit, Plant 3D, Navisworks, or similar modelling platforms
• Strong understanding of plant layout modelling, piping systems, and 3D environments
• Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings and pump-station layouts
• Knowledge of pumping systems, pipelines, and hydraulic infrastructure
• Familiarity with IIoT concepts and digital-twin workflows is an advantage
• Strong analytical, visualization, and documentation skills
• Ability to coordinate across multidisciplinary engineering and software teams

Qualifications

• Bachelors degree in Mechanical, Electrical, Civil, Instrumentation, or related engineering stream
• Masters degree (M.Tech/M.E.) preferred for Manager/AM roles
• 2-12 years of relevant experience in 3D modelling, plant engineering, or digital-twin development
• Experience in water infrastructure projects or industrial plants is an added advantage

Ideal Candidate Traits

• Detail-oriented with strong problem-solving capability
• Ability to work in high-paced project environments
• Strong communication and cross-functional collaboration skills
