Job Description

We are seeking a highly skilled Process & Chemical Engineer to lead the development, assessment, and scale-up of advanced treatment solutions for complex water, wastewater, and industrial effluents. The role combines deep chemical engineering fundamentals with strong process engineering capabilities to design, validate, and deploy innovative treatment solutions across physico-chemical, biological, thermal, membrane, and electrochemical domains.

The candidate will be responsible for conducting detailed treatability studies, developing integrated flowsheets, and implementing pilot- and field-scale systems for diverse industrial sectors including petrochemicals, refineries, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and heavy manufacturing. The role requires a strong grasp of contaminant behaviour, reaction engineering, separation processes, and system optimization. The candidate will work across laboratory testing, simulation, bench-scale experimentation, and on-site troubleshooting to deliver high-value treatment strategies. Close collaboration with chemical, biological, thermal, desalination, and digital teams is essential to ensure end-to-end technology development and deployment.

Key Responsibilities

Qualifications

• Education: PhD or M.Tech in Chemical Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Biotechnology, Industrial Chemistry, or related disciplines.

• Experience: ~10 years total, with a minimum of 5 years in water, wastewater, or industrial effluent treatment.

• Strong knowledge of reaction engineering, separation processes, mass transfer, and water chemistry.

• Experience with lab-scale experimentation, pilot testing, and field implementation.

• Familiarity with process simulation tools (ASPEN, HYSYS, GPS-X, BioWin, or equivalent).

• Publications: Minimum 3–5 publications in peer-reviewed journals; patents or book chapters preferred.

• Strong analytical, communication, and technical documentation skills.

• Ability to work with cross-functional R&D teams and manage multiple projects simultaneously.
