About

As an accomplished Mechanical Engineer with over 17 years of diverse experience in product design, development, and engineering, I specialize in delivering custom-engineered solutions for various industries, including oil and gas, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals. My expertise spans CAD, CAE, and PLM tools, ensuring compliance with industry standards, performing rigorous engineering calculations, and driving continuous improvement initiatives. At Ingersoll-Rand, I have successfully managed the design and execution of complex rotary screw and centrifugal compressor packages, overseeing electrical component selection, motor sizing, wiring schematics, and P&IDs. My role involves meticulous Bill of Material (BoM) management, vendor drawing approvals, and ensuring compliance with ATEX and other relevant standards. Previously, at Schlumberger, I played a pivotal role in subsea landing string projects, contributing to the design, material selection, and integration of safety systems with client BOP systems. My contributions significantly enhanced project efficiency and compliance with API standards. During my tenure at TAAL Technologies, I progressed from a Graduate Engineer Trainee to a Senior Design Engineer, focusing on the reverse engineering of industrial products and the validation of hydraulic tongs used on oil rigs. My work involved advanced CAD modeling, tolerance analysis, and ensuring design functionality and assembly efficiency. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering from Jawaharlal Nehru National College of Engineering (VTU), and my professional development includes certifications in ATEX, Project Management, Petroleum Exploration & Production, and Leadership & People Management. With a robust background in quality assurance, root cause analysis, vendor management, and a commitment to continuous improvement, I am dedicated to driving engineering excellence and delivering high-quality, reliable solutions.
