Job description

Job Title : Project Design Lead – (Modular Construction)

Location : IITM Research Park, Chennai

Department : Engineering + Operations

Type : Full-Time, Onsite

Join a Team Engineering the Future of Construction : Modular Building Technology (MBT)

About Us

We are revolutionising construction through Modular Building Technology (MBT) — where factory-born precision meets the simplicity of LEGO-like on-site assembly.

Our mission is to create intuitive, resilient, scalable spaces built with the speed and clarity of a product, not a traditional project.

We operate with an Intense & Scrappy mindset, believe Scale is Magic , and live by the principle : Nothing is someone else’s problem.

Every system we build, and every module we ship, is rooted in our MBT Focus : Make Something People Love.

The Role : Own the Space Between Design, Factory & Site

This is not a coordinator role.

This is a high-agency leadership role responsible for ensuring that :

  • Designs are buildable
  • Factory production is aligned & unblocked
  • Site execution is flawless & predictable
  • Projects remain profitable
  • Teams move in sync without friction
  • Issues are solved early and permanently

You will be the person who transforms initial concepts into fully aligned, execution-ready packages — ensuring clarity from design → manufacturing → logistics → site installation.

Key Responsibilities

1. Front-End Engineering & Feasibility (Digital → Factory → Site)

  • Break down project concepts into clear engineering inputs for design, factory and site.
  • Validate feasibility early — tolerances, module sizing, access, sequencing, logistics.
  • Drive design freeze and ensure all teams have clarity before production begins.
  • Create and maintain simple, intuitive installation and coordination instructions .
  • 2. Project Orchestration & Execution Clarity

  • Act as the single point of accountability connecting design, manufacturing, procurement, logistics, and site teams.
  • Run project kickoff sessions with assumptions, risks, and alignment questions.
  • Monitor dependencies, track progress, unblock teams, and escalate intelligently.
  • Ensure every deliverable meets factory-ready quality and site-ready clarity.
  • 3. Profitability, Budget Control & Risk Intelligence

  • Compare Budget vs Actual (BvA) across materials, labor, logistics, rework, and timelines.
  • Identify engineering or process root causes for variances.
  • Implement early-warning signals to catch overruns before they occur.
  • Drive continuous improvements to improve predictable project margins.
  • 4. Issue Resolution & Cross-Team Accountability

  • Solve conflicts between teams with clarity, empathy, and speed.
  • Design says manufacturing is asking too many changes
  • Manufacturing says design is not buildable
  • Site says installation sequence is unclear
  • Create “never again” systems and processes for recurring issues.
  • Maintain a high bar for communication and documentation.
  • 5. Process Building & Standardisation

  • Build SOPs for design freeze, factory release, installation readiness, RFIs, etc.
  • Implement checklists & coordination frameworks that scale.
  • Build dashboards or trackers for clarity (materials, timelines, dependencies).
  • Required Skills & Experience

    Technical & Operational Skills

  • Strong understanding of Modular Construction workflows
  • Clear understanding of manufacturing constraints and site execution logic
  • Ability to foresee problems before they reach production or site
  • Excellent coordination, planning, and critical path management skills
  • Strong analytical skills (costing, BvA, timelines, data-driven decisions)
  • Experience

  • 3–10 years in project coordination, front-end engineering, modular / precast construction, offsite manufacturing, or integrated construction delivery roles .
  • Experience working closely with design, manufacturing, and site teams.
  • Experience handling project budgets, cost tracking, and risk mitigation.
  • Mindset & Personality

  • High agency : you don’t wait — you drive clarity.
  • “Nothing is someone else’s problem” mindset.
  • Thrives in fast, intense, dynamic environments.
  • Structured thinking, exceptional communication.
  • Comfortable taking responsibility and making decisions with imperfect information.
  • Values Alignment (Mandatory)

    You must resonate deeply with our values :

  • Scale is Magic
  • Intense & Scrappy
  • Make Something People Love
  • Nothing is Someone Else’s Problem
  • Think Like a Factory; Build Like LEGO
  • Why You’ll Love Working With Us

  • High Impact Role : You directly determine how smoothly and profitably projects get delivered.
  • Cutting-Edge Environment : Work in India’s most forward-thinking modular construction ecosystem.
  • Collaborative Culture : Work daily with design innovators, manufacturing teams, and execution-focused site leaders.
  • Growth : Become one of the key orchestrators of India’s scaling modular industry.
  • Create a job alert for this search
