Summary:
We are seeking a highly skilled and detail-oriented Railway Structural Engineer – Bridge Design to join our dynamic engineering team focused on the design, analysis, and delivery of critical railway infrastructure. This role is central to ensuring the safety, durability, and long-term performance of railway bridges across high-speed and conventional rail networks. The ideal candidate will possess in-depth expertise in reinforced and prestressed concrete (RCC & PSC) bridge design, with proven experience in advanced structural analysis software and BIM-based modeling. You will play a pivotal role in developing an innovative, sustainable, and code-compliant bridge solutions that meet stringent railway standards, including ROB (Railway Over bridge), RUB (Railway Under bridge), and other specialized types. Your work will directly impact the reliability and efficiency of rail transportation systems, contributing to national infrastructure development and operational safety. This position offers a unique opportunity to work on large-scale, high-impact projects within a technically rigorous and collaborative environment.
Responsibilities:
-
Lead the structural design and analysis of railway bridges, including over bridges (ROB), under bridges (RUB), and other specialized structures.
-
Perform detailed design calculations for RCC and PSC bridge components using industry-standard software including MIDAS Civil, CSI Bridge, SAP2000, and STAAD Pro.
-
Develop and maintain BIM-based bridge models using Revit and other BIM platforms, ensuring seamless integration with project delivery workflows.
-
Conduct structural assessments, load analysis, and dynamic response evaluations under live train loads, wind, seismic, and thermal effects.
-
Ensure compliance with national and international railway bridge design codes (e.g., Indian Railways Code, AASHTO, Eurocodes) and project-specific requirements.
-
Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams including civil, mechanical, and railway operations engineers to deliver integrated bridge solutions.
-
Prepare detailed construction drawings, technical specifications, and design reports for review and approval.
-
Support site inspections, construction monitoring, and troubleshooting during implementation phases.
-
Stay current with emerging technologies, materials, and design methodologies in railway bridge engineering.
-
Mentor junior engineers and contribute to knowledge-sharing initiatives within the engineering department.
Requirements
Requirements:
-
Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Civil Engineering with specialization in Structural Engineering.
-
Minimum of 5 years of hands-on experience in railway bridge design, preferably in a consulting or infrastructure development firm.
-
Proficiency in RCC and PSC bridge design, including detailing, load distribution, and crack control.
-
Advanced expertise in structural analysis and design software: MIDAS Civil, CSI Bridge, SAP2000, STAAD Pro.
-
Strong experience in BIM-based bridge modeling using Revit and integration with project lifecycle workflows.
-
In-depth knowledge of Railway Bridges, including ROB, RUB, and other railway-specific bridge types.
-
Familiarity with railway loading standards (e.g., IRC:6, Indian Railways Loading Gauges, and dynamic impact factors).
-
Excellent technical documentation, drawing production, and report-writing skills.
-
Ability to work independently and as part of a multidisciplinary team in fast-paced project environments.
-
Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and commitment to safety and quality.
-
Willingness to travel for site visits and client meetings as required.
