Roles & Responsibilities
- Prepare proposals that are compliant, compelling, and completed on schedule.
- Develop cost effective and innovative water/wastewater treatment process designs that meet client design basis and requirements.
- Ensure technical proposals are developed with accurate deliverables such as design basis, performance guarantees, technical deviations, PFDs, P&IDs, GAs, project schedule and any other drawings, forms or documentation.
- Make process and instrumentation Diagrams of ETP, STP, UF, WTP & DM Plant.
- Responsible for tender study, understanding the specifications and requirements, and making pre-bid queries.
- Continuously learn and improve knowledge on process technologies and designs.
- Design, engineer, and analyse physicochemical separations processes as water pre-treatment systems for downstream desalination operations (specifically precipitation reactors, clarifiers, filter presses, ion exchange, and filtration pre-treatment).
- Develop relationships with vendors and contractors to improve buying power and increase competitiveness of proposals.
- Liaise with internal teams (Sales, Commercial, Engineering, Field Services, Finance) when required to develop technical and commercial proposals on time and with the highest work quality.
- Ensure commercial proposals are developed with accurate commercial deviations and competitive project costing.
- Ensure risk assessment is performed for each firm proposal to capture commercial risks associated with estimates and unknowns.
- Participate and present in customer meetings and design reviews if required (Bid Clarifications).
- Work with Project, Engineering, and Field Services teams to ensure detailed process engineering deliverables (e.g., design basis, process design calculations, PFD, P&IDs, HMBs, equipment lists, control philosophy) achieve projects timeline, budget, and quality objectives.
- Provide technical support for commissioning / site project related activities where and when required.
- Provide process support for O&M contracts including optimization and troubleshooting when required.
- Maintain good communication with all stakeholders and provide visibility on direction and results.
- Perform at least one project per year that improves the effectiveness and efficiency of generating proposals or undertaking detailed process engineering.
