Siddhi Consulting Engineer

We are over in Kothrud, working out of Maitrya Bang G24. It’s a decent spot in Pune, though the parking can be a bit of a struggle sometimes if you’re coming by car during the peak hours. Being a consulting engineer means there’s a lot of time spent looking at blue prints and going over structural details at the desk. It’s not the most exciting work to talk about, but it’s what we do. Most of our day is spent at the drafting table or out on site visits to check how the construction is moving along. We deal with a lot of local builders and homeowners who are trying to put up a new place or fix an old one. It’s mostly about making sure the measurements are right and the materials are what they should be. We don't have a big flashy office with a bunch of assistants and marble floors. It’s just a practical workspace with files stacked up and some measuring tools lying around. Pune is growing so fast that there’s always someone building something new around here. We try to keep our head down and get the calculations right. Sometimes things get delayed because of the weather or labor issues, which is just part of the reality of building things. We’ve been in Kothrud for a while now and know the local area pretty well. It’s a straightforward business built on just doing the job properly and making sure things are safe.
