Job Description:
To support Projects and TBCB pre-bid transmission-line engineering by developing preliminary PLS-CADD models, tower spotting, clearance checks, route optimization, tower schedules and technical inputs for bid estimation.



Key Responsibilities:

• Study RfP, technical specifications, route alignment, KML/KMZ, conductor, OPGW, tower and clearance requirements.
• Develop and verify preliminary PLS-CADD models using survey, LiDAR/DTM and terrain data.
• Carry out preliminary tower spotting considering span, angle, terrain and statutory clearances.
• Prepare tower spotting schedule, tower types and required extensions.
• Check ground, road, railway, river and powerline crossing clearances.
• Input and verify conductor, bundle configuration, sag-tension and temperature cases.
• Prepare/check sag templates and critical-span requirements.
• Provide span, wind span, weight span and uplift/downlead inputs to the tower design team.
• Evaluate alternative routes and optimize tower locations to reduce tower quantity and project cost.
• Identify terrain errors, critical spans, RoW constraints and problematic locations.
• Prepare preliminary tower quantities, extensions and special tower requirements for estimation.
• Generate and manage KML/KMZ outputs and coordinate with Survey/GIS teams.
• Prepare PLS-CADD outputs, critical-span lists and preliminary tower schedules for bid submission.
• Coordinate with Survey, Tower Design, Foundation, Electrical and Estimation teams.

Required Skills and qualifications :

• Strong working knowledge of PLS-CADD and transmission-line tower spotting.
• Good understanding of EHV transmission-line clearances, sag-tension and conductor parameters.
• Experience with KML/KMZ, Google Earth, AutoCAD/Civil 3D and GIS data.
• Ability to interpret survey/DTM/LiDAR data and transmission-line route profiles.
• Good understanding of transmission-line crossings, RoW and preliminary tower requirements.
• Experience in TBCB/ISTS pre-bid transmission-line projects, 400/765 kV lines, HVDC projects, route optimization and bid-cost support will be an added advantage.
