CRA Energy (Combustion Research Associates)
designs and manufactures custom-engineered process equipment. Our range covers
flare systems, thermal oxidisers, burner management systems, H2S scrubbers,
biogas upgrading and gas compression.
Founded in 1993, CRA has more than 800
installations in over 25 countries. Process, mechanical and electrical design,
fabrication and machining are all done in-house near Delhi.
You will lead CRA's process engineering
team. You own the process design of every order after award, and approve all
process deliverables before they are issued.
You also drive improvements to CRA's
existing designs and the development of new products.
