About This Role
This is a field-based engineering role requiring daily coordination between technical execution teams and project management. The position suits engineers who are comfortable working in project sites outside major cities, managing subcontractor teams, and ensuring that construction milestones are met on schedule. KEC International is a major Indian EPC contractor, so the role implies exposure to large-scale infrastructure projects with structured reporting and safety protocols.
What the Requirements Say About This Role
The posting seeks an engineer with 3-5 years of hands-on experience in transmission line construction, not just design or office work. This suggests the ideal candidate has practical knowledge of tower foundations, erection sequences, and civil works coordination. The cross-disciplinary mention of Electrical/Electromechanical/Civil engineering indicates the role values versatility over deep specialization in a single field.
How to Approach This Application
Your application should emphasize specific transmission line projects you have worked on, detailing your role in foundation work, tower erection, or quality inspections. Highlight any experience coordinating with subcontractors or preparing progress reports, as these are key daily responsibilities. Employers in this sector prioritize candidates who can demonstrate safety compliance and logistical planning on past assignments.
