This role is for one of the Weekday's clients Salary range: Rs 1400000 - Rs 2500000 (ie INR 14-25 LPA) Min Experience: 15 years Location: Ahmedabad JobType: full-time Education: Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering (B.E./B.Tech or M.E./M.Tech) Requirements Key Responsibilities: Lead structural engineering activities for modular plant designs in thermal and water treatment applications, including preassembled skids, pipe racks, platforms, and modules. Apply advanced structural analysis and design techniques using STAAD Pro and related tools to optimize material use and minimize cost. Collaborate closely with piping teams to ensure structural designs are seamlessly integrated into overall plant and skid configurations. Develop and implement standardized modular pipe rack designs for consistent integration into engineering workflows, reducing on-site fabrication needs. Utilize Building Information Modeling (BIM) technologies to align structural designs with plant layouts, both within internal design centers and in coordination with clients. Perform structural load analysis for wind, seismic, and snow conditions, providing accurate load data for foundation design. Conduct comprehensive rigging and lifting studies to support the safe handling of large, preassembled structures. Execute transportation feasibility studies for road and sea transit of modular skids and structural assemblies. Assist application engineering and proposal teams during front-end engineering design (FEED) stages, including FEL-2 and FEL-3, by providing BOQs and preliminary design inputs. Oversee drafting teams to ensure accurate and detailed manufacturing drawings derived from structural calculations. Design anchor bolts and foundation supports for pipe racks, heavy equipment, and modular structures. Conduct site visits as necessary for inspection, verification of structural installation, and troubleshooting. Qualifications & Skills: Strong working knowledge of American structural design and construction codes such as AISC, ASCE, AWS D1.1, and ASTM/ASME material standards. Familiarity with European codes (e.g., EN1090) is a plus. Proficient in applying IBC, UBC, and ASCE 7 for load estimation (wind, seismic). Understanding of Progressive Design-Build methodologies and project lifecycle deliverables for both pre- and post-contract phases. Experience with FEL-2 / FEL-3 stages in generating early-phase engineering outputs and estimates. Hands-on expertise in STAAD Pro, Tekla Structures, AutoCAD 2D, Revit, and Autodesk BIM360. Strong communication skills suitable for supporting global project teams. Experience with ERP platforms like SAP is advantageous.
