About PRAMA Instruments

Prama Instruments Pvt. Ltd. is a 30+ year old Indian company known for delivering advanced instrumentation systems across pharmaceuticals, hydrogen, semiconductors, chemicals, and clean energy. We’re a systems integrator, EPC player, and exclusive partner for TK-Fujikin, a global leader in ultra-high purity and clean media components.

Role Objective

We are hiring a self-driven, technically strong team leader to independently manage our proposal, project, and technical delivery functions for instrumentation and fluid control systems. This is a core leadership role that combines technical depth, client-facing maturity, and ownership to guide junior engineers without relying on constant escalation.

The candidate must be confident in taking application briefs, converting them into technical + commercial proposals, and guiding internal teams for execution, documentation, and delivery.

Key Responsibilities

Proposal & Technical Leadership

• Interpret RFQs, P&IDs, and application notes across lab setups, gas systems, pharma skids, and clean utilities
• Translate client needs into TK-Fujikin or equivalent components (valves, regulators, fittings, manifolds, tubing)
• Guide team on component selection for media compatibility, pressure rating, flow regimes, material suitability
• Ensure technically sound and commercially competitive proposals with minimum revisions

Project Execution

• Lead project execution from award to delivery – planning, internal coordination, and vendor alignment
• Review BOMs, fabrication specs, installation layouts, and client deliverables
• Troubleshoot project bottlenecks (costing, lead time, spec deviation) and close loop quickly
• Ensure quality, safety, and documentation compliance (ASME, API, ASTM)

Team Management

• Mentor and review work of 2 engineers (proposal + execution) – escalate only critical issues
• Set internal workflows for documentation, timelines, quote revisions, and client follow-ups
• Track live proposals, project health, and ensure zero information slippage

Tendering & Commercial Insight

• Lead government and institutional tender technical writeups
• Help refine costing models, pricing logic, and vendor negotiation inputs
• Identify new applications, component gaps, and areas to propose higher-value packages
