Senior Skid Design Engineer Separator Skids (Dairy & Pharma)

Role Overview: As a Senior Skid Design Engineer, you will be responsible for delivering complete engineering solutions for hygienic separator skids used in Dairy and Pharmaceutical applications. You will collaborate with global experts, regional teams, and India-based sales and execution functions to ensure every design meets the required hygienic standards, process needs, and GEA quality expectations. Key Responsibilities: - Design and develop PFDs and P&IDs that accurately represent hygienic process requirements for Dairy and Pharma systems, ensuring all flow concepts, instrumentation details, and process interfaces meet global design standards. - Create complete skid layouts, including equipment positioning, frame structures, and hygienic pipe routing, ensuring cleanability, accessibility, CIP/SIP integration, and alignment with GEA hygienic design principles. - Ensure all designs comply with relevant standards such as ASME, ANSI, ASME BPE, and internal GEA engineering guidelines, maintaining high accuracy and consistency across projects. - Support the Sales team by preparing conceptual P&IDs, preliminary layouts, and technical inputs required during the proposal stage for Dairy and Pharma customers. - Lead detailed engineering once an order is received, including finalizing P&IDs, developing 3D skid models, preparing BOMs, and issuing fabrication drawings in line with hygienic design expectations. - Adapt global separator skid platforms for the Indian market by evaluating local manufacturing capabilities, optimizing cost without compromising hygiene, and ensuring compliance with regional requirements. - Actively participate in the creation and updating of standardized design modules, engineering templates, and process documents for separator skids. - Prepare all required technical documentation including hygienic layouts, instrumentation specifications, materials of construction, and regulatory documents needed for Dairy and Pharma applications. Qualifications Required: - Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field - 5-10 years of experience specifically in designing hygienic skids for Dairy or Pharmaceutical applications - Strong experience related to separator skids or similar hygienic process and rotating-equipment-based skids - Proficient in Autodesk Inventor or CADISON - Solid understanding of hygienic piping, CIP/SIP concepts, instrumentation integration, and standards such as ASME, ANSI, and ASME BPE - Strong communication and coordination skills to work effectively with customers, global teams, and local manufacturing partners, demonstrating a structured, detail-oriented approach suitable for regulated industries.
