Job description

Job Title : Principal R&D Engineer – Concrete Sandwich Panel.

Location : Modulus R&D Centre, Tambaram, Chennai (On-site) Job Type : Full-time 🚀 About Us

We are on a mission to revolutionise personal construction through cutting-edge scientific advancements and human-centric design. Our goal is to develop Modular Building Technology (MBT) that empowers and enriches customers’ lives.

We are building the future, block by block :

  • Factory-born precision : We envision modular systems created in controlled factory environments, ensuring exceptional quality.
  • Intuitive assembly : We design building blocks that snap together seamlessly, akin to LEGO®, empowering individuals with user-friendly construction experiences.
  • Robust resilience : Our systems are engineered to withstand harsh handling, extreme weather, and the test of time.
  • Speed : We transform construction timelines from months into hours.

🏗 The Role

Reporting directly to the CTO, you will lead the R&D efforts to "double down" on our proprietary Precast Concrete Sandwich Panel System . You will bridge the gap between advanced theoretical mechanics and scalable manufacturing. We are moving beyond traditional concrete; we need thin, lightweight, high-strength ferro cement composites analyzed with the rigor of aerospace engineering. 🔧 Key Responsibilities 1. Advanced Structural Analysis & FEA

  • Lead the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) strategy for complex sandwich panel composites.
  • Simulate Mechanical properties, thermal bowing, shear connector behaviour, and long-term creep of concrete composite sandwich panel system using software like ABAQUS, ANSYS, or DIANA.
  • Apply Fracture Mechanics principles to predict crack propagation and durability in thin-walled ferro cement elements under dynamic loads (transportation and handling).
  • 2. Material Research & System Development

  • Drive research into Ferro Cement and collaborate with the materials team to develop ultra-high-performance concrete mixes to achieve maximum strength-to-weight ratios.
  • Design and optimise the "LEGO-like" connection mechanisms, ensuring they facilitate rapid assembly while maintaining structural continuity.
  • Prototype and test insulation integration (stonewool, PUF / XPS / EPS) within concrete layers to ensure thermal efficiency without compromising structural integrity.
  • 3. Validation & Scalability

  • Collaborate with the manufacturing team to ensure designs are compatible with scalable, factory-based casting processes.
  • Oversee physical lab testing (utilising the ecosystem at Modulus R&D centre to validate FEA models against real-world destruction tests.
  • 🎓 Requirements Must-Haves

  • Education : M.Tech or PhD in Structural Engineering, Fracture Mechanics, or Material Science.
  • Experience : 5+ years of hands-on experience in Precast Concrete design and R&D.
  • Technical Core : Deep expertise in Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of concrete structures.
  • Specialisation : Proven research or work history involving Sandwich Panels and Ferro Cement / Textile Reinforced Concrete .
  • Mechanics : Strong grasp of non-linear fracture mechanics and composite behaviour.
  • Nice-to-Haves

  • Experience working within a startup or high-growth R&D environment.
  • Familiarity with modular / volumetric construction logistics.
  • Coding skills (Python / MATLAB) for automating analysis workflows.
  • 🧬 Our DNA (Core Values)

    To thrive here, you must align with our values :

  • 🎯 MBT Focus : We are committed to building fast, safe, and intuitive technology. If it doesn't help the mission, it's out of scope.
  • 🔥 Intense and Scrappy : We do the hard, unglamorous work with urgency. We are unpretentious and value what works over what looks fancy.
  • 💥 Scale is Magic : We design for mass production. When in doubt, we scale it up.
  • 💖 Make Something People Love : Our engineering must result in a transformative, positive effect on the end-user's life.
  • 🫂 Team Spirit : We collaborate intensely. Our goals are perfectly aligned, even if our roles differ.
  • 🔑 Ownership : Nothing is someone else’s problem. You see a gap? You fill it.
  • 🌟 Why Join Us?

  • Impact : Work on technology that benefits all of humanity by solving the housing crisis through speed and quality.
  • Ecosystem : Located at IITM Research Park , you will be at the heart of India’s premier deep-tech ecosystem, with access to world-class talent and facilities.
  • Growth : Join a high-growth environment where you can truly make your mark.
  • Ready to build the future? If you are a high-growth individual ready to do great things, apply now.
