This role requires strong technical expertise in fabrication, knowledge of reefer container design, and the ability to ensure high-quality, durable, and compliant cold chain transport solutions. Coordination with vendors, adherence to quality standards, and efficient project timelines are critical to this role.

Roles & Responsibilities

Fabrication

· Fabricate and assemble refrigerated transport units, reefer containers, insulated panels, and structural components.

· Specialize in fabrication of containers, specifically reefer containers, ensuring durability and industry compliance.

· Mount fabricated containers onto truck chassis, ensuring proper alignment, load distribution, and reinforcement.

· Work with sheet metal, steel, aluminum, and composite materials to build robust cold chain transport solutions.

· Operate fabrication tools and machinery—welding, cutting, bending, drilling, grinding, etc.

· Conduct repairs, modifications, retrofitting, and preventive maintenance on reefer units and transport bodies.

· Ensure all fabrication work meets safety, quality, and statutory standards

Design

· Create and develop innovative designs for refrigerated transport vehicles, reefer containers, and cold storage units.

· Prepare technical drawings using CAD software (AutoCAD, SolidWorks, etc.).

· Collaborate with engineering and operations teams to design effective cooling, insulation, and airflow systems.

· Improve designs for better durability, performance, energy efficiency, and cost-effectiveness.

· Prepare prototypes, mock-ups, BOQ (Bill of Quantities), and list of items required for fabrication and mounting.

Coordination & Quality

· Arrange all spares, fabrication items, accessories, insulation material, hardware, and mechanical components required for container fabrication and chassis mounting.

· Coordinate with vendors, suppliers, and contractors for material procurement and outsourced fabrication.

· Ensure stock availability of essential items and manage BOQ-level planning.

· Maintain proper documentation of materials, design changes, and fabrication processes.

Quality & Timeline Management

· Ensure strict adherence to quality standards during fabrication, assembly, and mounting processes.

· Monitor quality standards and processes followed by external vendors.

· Maintain project timelines and ensure on-time delivery of fabricated and designed components.

· Conduct inspections and quality checks at various stages—material, mid-process, and final output.

· Maintain accurate records of designs, fabrication work, modifications, and vendor performance.

Qualifications

· Diploma/Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Fabrication, Industrial Design, or related field.

· 3–6 years of experience in fabrication and design (preferably in cold chain, reefer transport, or logistics body fabrication).

· Proficiency in CAD tools (AutoCAD, SolidWorks) and MS Office.

· Strong knowledge of fabrication techniques, material properties, and welding methods.

· Experience in reefer container fabrication and truck-mounted reefer design is a strong advantage.

Key Competencies

· Expertise in fabrication, container body-building, and industrial design.

· Strong problem-solving and analytical skills.

· Creativity and innovation in engineering and design solutions.

· Attention to detail and adherence to high-quality standards.

· Efficient project management and ability to meet timelines.

· Strong coordination skills with vendors, suppliers, and internal teams.
