Department: Digital Water & Distribution
Job Type: Full-time
Salary: As per industry standards
Role Summary
We are seeking an experienced Instrumentation & Water Quality Engineer to manage the specification, installation, operation, and maintenance of field instrumentation across the water distribution network. The role is responsible for ensuring accurate measurement of bulk water flow, zonal flow, network pressure, reservoir levels, and water quality parameters at critical network locations to support efficient operations and regulatory compliance.
Key Responsibilities
- Specify, install, and manage bulk electromagnetic flow meters (inline and insertion type), ultrasonic flow meters, and high-accuracy pressure transmitters essential for DMA monitoring, leak detection, and network performance assessment.
- Manage submersible and radar level transmitters for collector wells, booster sumps, Elevated Service Reservoirs (ESRs), and Ground Service Reservoirs (GSRs).
- Deploy, configure, and maintain online water quality analyzers at key network nodes and reservoirs, with a focus on Free Residual Chlorine (FRC), pH, and turbidity monitoring to ensure water quality throughout the distribution network.
- Specify IP68-rated submersible instrumentation and design robust, weatherproof, and anti-vandalism enclosures for remote DMA nodes, valve chambers, and field installations.
- Plan and execute preventive maintenance and calibration programs for flow meters, pressure transmitters, level sensors, and water quality instruments.
- Ensure all instrumentation complies with APBI requirements and relevant standards, including IS:2593 for Electromagnetic Flow Meters.
- Maintain and update the master Instrument Index, technical datasheets, calibration certificates, asset registers, and maintenance records.
- Support testing, commissioning, troubleshooting, and performance optimization of field instrumentation systems.
Qualifications
- B.E./B.Tech or Diploma in Instrumentation Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or related discipline.
- 5–10 years of experience in field instrumentation and monitoring systems, preferably within water distribution or pipeline network projects.
- Strong knowledge of flow, pressure, level, and water quality instrumentation.
- Experience in calibration, commissioning, and maintenance of network monitoring systems.
Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)
- Instrument Availability (>98%)
- Calibration Compliance
- Free Residual Chlorine (FRC) Compliance at Network Nodes
