Work experience

Operations Intern at Biocon, Feb 2026 - Jul 2026 · 6 mos, Analyzed and proposed to improved yield across upstream (solid-phase peptide synthesis) and downstream (purification) processes by identifying 2+ process bottlenecks. Utilized Aggrescan3D, Tango, Avogadro to conduct peptide aggregation studies. Proposed process optimization strategies based on literature and plant constraints. Collaborated with plant teams to understand industrial constraints and process scalability and yield improvement of the plant.

CCFP Intern at CSIR - National Aerospace Laboratories (NAL), Jun 2025 - Jul 2025 · 2 mos, On-site, Executed in-plant operations for carbon fiber production, optimizing stabilization and carbonization parameters to improve fiber yield compared to conventional PAN-based routes under the guidance of Dr. Prosenjit Ghosh. Collaborated with Dr. Brandt Talbot (Imperial College London) to assess lignin-based precursor materials, analyzing spinnability to integrate sustainable alternatives into the Pilot Plant. Conducted mechanical property analysis to validate the tensile strength of experimental fibres for high-performance aerospace applications.
