Job Summary:

The Civil Engineer will be responsible for supporting and overseeing all civil engineering aspects of renewable energy power plant construction (both solar and wind projects). This role involves ensuring the quality, safety, and adherence to design specifications for site preparation, foundations, roads, drainage, and other civil infrastructure components from initiation to completion.

Key Responsibilities:

* Design Review & Validation:

Review and analyze civil engineering designs, drawings, and specifications for solar PV plants (e.g., module mounting structure foundations, inverter room/control room civil works, internal roads, drainage systems) and wind farms (e.g., wind turbine foundations, access roads, substation civil works).

Identify potential design conflicts, constructability issues, or optimization opportunities and propose solutions to senior engineers/managers.

* Site Preparation & Earthworks Management:

Oversee and manage site surveys, topographic mapping, and geotechnical investigations.

Supervise earthwork activities including grading, excavation, backfilling, and compaction, ensuring adherence to design and quality standards.

* Foundation & Structural Works Supervision:

Supervise the construction of various types of foundations, including pile foundations, raft foundations, and specific foundations for solar structures (e.g., driven piles, concrete footings) and wind turbines (e.g., gravity, rock anchor).

Ensure proper concrete pouring, curing, and testing as per specifications and codes.

Oversee the erection and dismantling of formwork, rebar placement, and other structural components.

Infrastructure Development:

Manage the construction of internal and access roads (including heavy haul roads for wind projects), drainage systems, culverts, and other civil infrastructure.

Ensure the quality of road materials, compaction, and final finishes.

* Quality Assurance & Control:

Implement and monitor rigorous quality control procedures for all civil construction activities, including material testing (concrete, soil, aggregates) and workmanship.

Conduct regular site inspections and audits to ensure work conforms to design specifications, relevant Indian standards (e.g., IS Codes), and best practices.

Prepare and maintain detailed quality records, inspection reports, and non-conformance reports.

* Health, Safety & Environment (HSE) Compliance:

Ensure strict adherence to company EHS policies and all statutory safety regulations on site for all civil works.

Conduct safety toolbox talks, identify potential hazards, and implement immediate corrective actions to maintain a safe working environment.

Ensure compliance with environmental norms and local regulations related to civil construction activities.

* Contractor & Vendor Management:

Coordinate and supervise civil contractors, sub-contractors, and material suppliers, ensuring their work aligns with project plans and quality standards.

Review contractor's method statements, work plans, and progress claims.

* Documentation & Reporting:

Maintain comprehensive project documentation, including daily progress reports, site diaries, material consumption records, measurement books, and correspondence.

Prepare and present accurate civil work progress updates, identify potential delays, and propose solutions to the Project Manager.

* Technical Support & Problem Solving:

Provide technical support and resolve on-site civil engineering issues and challenges in coordination with senior engineers and project managers.

Assist in conducting site surveys and collecting data for design modifications or clarifications.

Skills:

* Strong understanding of civil engineering principles, construction methods, and quality control procedures.

* Proficiency in AutoCAD and working knowledge of other civil engineering software (e.g., for structural analysis, quantity surveying) is a plus.

* In-depth knowledge of relevant Indian Standards (IS Codes) related to civil construction, concrete, soil, and structural design.

* Proven ability to supervise civil works on site, manage contractors, and ensure project execution as per plan.
