Our client is a global leader in water purification and critical minerals processing technologies, helping industries address water scarcity through solutions in water reuse, desalination, and zero liquid discharge. With over four decades of experience and thousands of installations in more than 60 countries, they deliver innovative engineering and advanced water treatment technologies.

Role Purpose:

The Structural Engineer will be responsible for structural engineering and analysis of modular designs for thermal and water treatment plants, including skids, pipe racks, platforms, and support structures. The role involves performing structural calculations, load analysis, design optimization, coordination with piping and civil teams, and ensuring that designs meet project specifications, global codes, and safety standards.

Key Responsibilities:

• Perform structural engineering for modular designs used in thermal and water treatment systems including preassembled skids, modules, pipe racks, and platforms.
• Implement advanced structural design methodologies using STAAD Pro and other engineering software to optimize structural design and reduce material costs.
• Select appropriate construction materials ensuring structural stability and compliance with project specifications and site conditions.
• Coordinate with piping engineering teams to integrate structural designs with skid and module layouts.
• Develop and implement standardized and modular pipe rack designs to reduce site work and improve installation efficiency.
• Utilize BIM technology as part of the engineering process to integrate structural elements within overall plant designs across global design centers and customer interfaces.
• Perform wind load, seismic load, and snow load analysis for complex structural systems and provide loading data for foundation design.
• Conduct rigging and handling studies for assembled structural modules and equipment structures.
• Perform transportation studies for road and sea transportation of large skids and modular structures.
• Support the Applications / Proposal team with design inputs, BOQs, and engineering estimates during FEED phases such as FEL-2 and FEL-3.
• Guide structural designers and drafters to ensure structural analysis outputs are correctly incorporated into fabrication and manufacturing drawings.
• Prepare foundation bolt layouts and anchor bolt designs for equipment, pipe racks, and large structures.
• Visit project sites when required to assess installation completeness and troubleshoot structural or civil issues.
• Review engineering documentation including material take-offs (MTO), GA drawings, fabrication drawings, and erection drawings.
• Prepare technical reports, engineering specifications, and structural design documentation for internal and external stakeholders.
• Communicate effectively with engineering teams, customers, and vendors.

Must-Have Skills:

• Strong knowledge of structural engineering and analysis for industrial plants or modular structures.
• Proficiency in STAAD Pro or similar structural analysis software.
• Experience performing wind, seismic, and load analysis for structural systems.
• Knowledge of structural steel design, pipe racks, platforms, and modular structures.
• Understanding of foundation loads, anchor bolt design, and structural stability analysis.
• Experience coordinating with piping, civil, and engineering teams.
• Ability to review structural drawings, fabrication drawings, and engineering documentation.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.

Good-to-Have Skills:

• • Experience in water treatment plants, thermal systems, EPC projects, or industrial process plants.
• • Familiarity with BIM-based engineering workflows.
• • Experience conducting rigging, lifting, and transportation studies for modular equipment.
• • Exposure to FEED engineering and proposal support activities.
• • Experience supporting site engineering and construction troubleshooting.
