Where you will work

Which plants in Chhattisgarh will I work on?

Project Engineers based in Raipur are deployed to operating plants across four industrial belts of Chhattisgarh: Bhilai and Durg, Raipur, Urla and Siltara, Raigarh, Korba. The work is power system studies, 3D LiDAR capture, as-built drawings and plant safety studies on plants that are running, with travel to neighbouring Odisha, Madhya Pradesh and Jharkhand when a project needs it.

Bhilai and Durg

Integrated steel and heavy engineering. Project Engineers based in Raipur are deployed here for power system studies, 3D LiDAR capture, as-built drawings and plant safety studies.

Raipur, Urla and Siltara

Sponge iron, steel rolling, ferro alloys and captive power. Project Engineers based in Raipur are deployed here for power system studies, 3D LiDAR capture, as-built drawings and plant safety studies.

Raigarh

Steel, power and cement. Project Engineers based in Raipur are deployed here for power system studies, 3D LiDAR capture, as-built drawings and plant safety studies.

Korba

Thermal power, aluminium and coal. Project Engineers based in Raipur are deployed here for power system studies, 3D LiDAR capture, as-built drawings and plant safety studies.

Chhattisgarh is India's steel and power workshop. Bhilai and Durg hold an integrated steel plant and heavy engineering; the Raipur, Urla and Siltara belt holds dozens of sponge iron, steel rolling, ferro alloy and captive power units; Raigarh holds steel, power and cement; Korba holds thermal power and aluminium. Sponge iron and rolling mills are brownfield by nature: capacity is added in stages, switchgear is extended, and drawings fall behind the plant. That creates steady demand for arc flash studies, relay coordination, 3D LiDAR capture and as-built drawings, and most of it sits within two hours of Raipur.

Open roles · Chhattisgarh

Which roles are open for engineers from Chhattisgarh?

Two Project Engineer roles are open for Chhattisgarh, one electrical and one mechanical, both based in Raipur with a 0 to 3 years band, open to B.E., B.Tech and Diploma holders, with CTC starting at ₹2.4 lakh per annum. One application on the careers portal covers both.

Tier 1 · Chhattisgarh

Project Engineer · Electrical

Based in Raipur, deployed to plants across Chhattisgarh and Odisha, Madhya Pradesh and Jharkhand. First-year work: arc flash and relay coordination studies on live switchgear, plant modelling in ETAP or SKM, electrical as-built drawings.

Raipur roles

What does the first year look like for a Project Engineer in Chhattisgarh?

A typical first year for an electrical Project Engineer based in Raipur: data collection at a sponge iron and captive power unit in the Siltara belt with a study engineer, the ETAP model and arc flash labels back in the office, then a steel plant in Raigarh where you lead the walkdown. A mechanical Project Engineer typically starts on a 3D LiDAR scan of a rolling mill or power plant and converts the point cloud into as-built plant layout and piping drawings. One plant to learn on, the next to lead on. (Illustrative sequence; the actual deployment follows live projects.)

Why stay

Why work from Raipur instead of moving to Pune, Bengaluru or Hyderabad?

Because the multinational comes to you. A VB Project Engineer in Raipur works on Chhattisgarh's own plants to the same standards, with the same tools and the same review as the Hyderabad hub, as part of a group that delivers in 21 countries. The CV reads the same; the rent and the distance from home do not.

Freshers from Chhattisgarh

How does a fresher from Chhattisgarh get in without GATE?

Register once on careers.vbengg.com, choose Raipur as your location, upload a CV that names the software you have used, and take a technical discussion with a practising VB engineer. VB Engineering welcomes applications from graduates and diploma holders of NIT Raipur, IIT Bhilai, BIT Durg, SSTC Bhilai and the government engineering colleges at Raipur, Bilaspur and Jagdalpur under CSVTU, and from any AICTE-approved college in Chhattisgarh.

Chhattisgarh graduates often prepare for CGPSC AE, CSEB JE or GATE for years after college. VB Engineering offers a route that starts the month you apply: a technical discussion instead of an exam, a live steel or power plant in your own state instead of a waiting list, and standards work that plant electrical and mechanical departments respect. Engineers who later clear an exam leave with plant studies on their CV; engineers who stay grow to signing engineer.

  1. STEP 1Register once

    Name, mobile, email, batch year and Raipur as preferred location. One application covers both Chhattisgarh roles.

  2. STEP 2CV that names your tools

    PDF under 2 MB. List AutoCAD, ETAP, MATLAB, SolidWorks or Revit exposure, even from a college lab.

  3. STEP 3Technical discussion

    A VB engineer in your discipline talks through a plant problem: a single-line diagram, a P&ID, or what a 3D scan of a pump house must capture.

  4. STEP 4Offer and joining

    Offer from a VB Group email address. You join in Raipur and start on a live project under a study engineer.

Questions engineers from Chhattisgarh ask

Frequently asked questions

Are there mechanical and electrical engineering jobs in Chhattisgarh for freshers?

Yes. VB Engineering hires Project Engineers (Electrical and Mechanical) with 0 to 3 years of experience based in Raipur, deployed to plants across Chhattisgarh. B.E., B.Tech and Diploma freshers of the 2024, 2025 and 2026 batches can apply; CTC starts at ₹2.4 lakh per annum.

Do I have to leave Chhattisgarh to work for VB Engineering?

No. Project Engineers hired in Raipur work on plants in Chhattisgarh and the neighbouring states of Odisha, Madhya Pradesh and Jharkhand. Engineers who later move into study and review roles may be offered a seat at the Hyderabad hub; the move follows the work.

Which plants in Chhattisgarh will I work on?

VB Engineering project teams work on operating plants in the Bhilai and Durg, Raipur, Urla and Siltara, Raigarh, Korba belts: integrated steel and heavy engineering; sponge iron, steel rolling, ferro alloys and captive power; steel, power and cement; thermal power, aluminium and coal. The plant you are deployed to depends on the live project.

Which colleges in Chhattisgarh does VB Engineering recruit from?

VB Engineering welcomes applications from graduates and diploma holders of NIT Raipur, IIT Bhilai, BIT Durg, SSTC Bhilai and the government engineering colleges at Raipur, Bilaspur and Jagdalpur under CSVTU, and from any AICTE-approved college. Applications are read on the CV and the technical discussion, not on the college name.

How is working for VB different from a plant job in Chhattisgarh?

A plant engineer sees one plant for years. A VB Project Engineer based in Raipur sees many plants in Chhattisgarh in the first year, across power, steel, refinery, cement and pharma, and the study carries a named engineer's signature. Engineers who want a single-plant career are better served by the plant; engineers who want breadth and standards work are served here.

How do I apply?

Apply once on the VB Group careers portal at careers.vbengg.com, choose Raipur as your preferred location, verify your email and upload your CV as a PDF. One application covers every open role.

Does VB Engineering charge any fee for jobs?
