The Opportunity
We are looking to hire energetic and driven individuals in India with experience in upstream O&G operations, software development and deep technical research background to join our Solutions Deployment vertical. If you are passionate about production optimization and familiar with emerging technology trends, this is your chance to transform the landscape.
This is a highly specialized, hybrid role. Standard software engineers without a deep domain understanding of upstream petroleum operations, and traditional petroleum engineers without advanced Python development and AI/ML modeling capabilities, will not be considered.
Please review the advanced technical prerequisites below before applying.
At Xecta Digital Labs, our Petroleum Engineers bring their expertise to develop and apply new technologies - physics-based, data-driven, and hybrid - to monitor, analyze, and optimize asset performance for conventional and unconventional operations.
You will be the crucial bridge between classical reservoir + production engineering and modern software development, advancing these analytical solutions within our business units.
Your Responsibilities
- As a core member of our deployment team, you will sit at the critical intersection of upstream operations and digital product development.
- Develop & Deploy: Build advanced digital technologies for reservoir management, production surveillance, and production optimization. Support the implementation and deployment of these new solutions directly into Xecta’s product platform for our customers.
- End-to-End Modeling: Build our technology catering to well modeling, artificial lift modeling, reservoir modeling, and network modeling.
- Develop code: Utilize Python and C# for advanced data processing, engineering tasks, and deploying physics-informed AI algorithms into the field.
- Project Execution: Drive a wide range of projects across Xecta’s core focus areas, including conventional and unconventional production operations and drilling solutions.
- Research & Leadership: Support Xecta's R&D program, collaborating with external technology organizations, joint industry projects, and consortia. Mentor staff, participate in training, and represent the company in external events and thought leadership roles.
Education
- Minimum: BS and MS in Petroleum Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or any other related discipline
Travel Requirements
- The percentage of travel (domestic and international) required for this position is 0 – 25%.
- Regular client interactions in the Asia Pacific and Australia regions.
- Regular team building and workshop interactions with your peer groups in the USA.
