I design and govern Automotive PLM solutions on 3DEXPERIENCE/ENOVIA – turning complex engineering requirements into scalable, governed platforms. I’m an Agile Business Analyst deliberately positioned on the PLM Architect track. I don’t just write stories – I own data models, cross‑tenant governance, and solution design for BIW welding digitalization (LinxCAT) and classification automation. Selected impact: → Reduced manual classification effort by 40% using AI pattern detection → Architected a system‑driven workflow that eliminated 55+ man‑days per cycle (4 actors → 2, no more email/Excel loops) → Automated IGES conversion from 10 manual steps → 1 (batch + VBScript) Core expertise: • PLM Architecture & Governance – data model validation, multi‑tenant stability (DEV/UAT/PROD), classification hierarchies, cross‑environment sync • 3DEXPERIENCE / ENOVIA / Teamcenter – BOM, DMU, ECO/ECR, maturity rules, effectivity • Agile Delivery – EPIC/MMF structuring, UAT leadership, incident root‑cause analysis (Jira/Confluence) • Automation & AI – AI‑assisted classification (40% effort↓) + Power Automate reporting workflows • Engineering Automation – VBA/CatVBA/VBScript/EKL, workflow acceleration Beyond PLM: As a personal initiative, I built a complete Manufacturing Execution System (MES) for a windmill blade workshop (React, Node.js, PostgreSQL, MQTT, Docker). It delivers real‑time OEE, defect traceability, Process flow, and reduced manual errors by 90% – bridging PLM with shop‑floor IoT. Open to: PLM Solution Architect / 3DEXPERIENCE Functional Architect / PLM Product Owner roles – as well as collaborations aimed at revolutionizing Renewable Energy. Let’s connect or message me here.

Agile Business Analyst at Renault Nissan Technology & Business Centre India, Nov 2022 - Present · 4 yrs 1 mo, Chennai, My role extends beyond traditional Agile BA – I own PLM architecture, data governance, and solution design on 3DEXPERIENCE/ENOVIA for automotive programs. Key impact: • LinxCAT (BIW welding platform) – Led requirements, EPIC/MMF structuring, and UAT validation. Architected workflow transition from manual (email/Excel) to system‑driven PLM process. • Reduced classification effort by 40% – Applied AI pattern detection to automate class & attribute hierarchy generation. • Design Alignment governance – Ensured architectural consistency across DEV/UAT/PROD tenants. Own classification management (hierarchy + attributes + cross‑tenant sync). • Incident & release stability – Led root‑cause analysis and SOP validation, improving system stability during upgrades. • POC ownership – Drive Proof of Concepts to validate feasibility before industrialization. • Current focus – Progressing toward formal PLM Architect role by owning complex architectural topics and influencing long‑term system design.
Senior Software Consultant at ORNNOVA Group, Nov 2020 - Oct 2022 · 2 yrs, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India, Deliver automation solutions on 3DEXPERIENCE/ENOVIA for PLM and CAD workflows, coordinating directly with product owners. Key projects & impact: • IGES Conversion Automation (CAE team) – Reduced manual steps from 10 → 1 per conversion. Built a batch system (VBScript + Windows Task Scheduler) that triggers every 15 minutes to convert 3DXML to IGES using Excel input. Centralized with dedicated 3DEXPERIENCE license. • DMU Quality Checks – Developed CATIA VBA macros to automate VPMReference hygiene, clash/clearance analysis (within 1mm tolerance), BOM instantiation validation, and Excel/HTML reporting. Eliminated manual DMU error identification. • Tech stack: 3DEXPERIENCE, ENOVIA DMC, VBA/CatVBA, VBScript, EKL, BatchScript, Windows Task Scheduler.
CAD Automation Engineer,- at peza, Dec 2018 - Nov 2020 · 2 yrs, Chennai, Developed CATIA V5 automation tools for aerospace and automotive clients, reducing manual design and quality checking effort. Key projects & impact: • Web Rhino (Aerospace) – Built a CATIA VBA tool to automatically create rivets on aeroplane wing web rhino parts at correct locations. Generated Excel report with location data for analysis team. Eliminated hours of manual rivet placement on large assemblies. • Quality Checker (PLM‑integrated) – Delivered CATIA VBA + ENOVIA solution that validated modelling and drafting quality standards against customer rules. Read data directly from PLM and CATIA models, generated HTML failure reports with reasons. Enabled one‑click quality compliance. • Automation support – Created Excel, Word, Outlook, and MS Access macro/VBA applications for internal teams. Participated in code reviews, prepared software design documents, and captured requirements from divisional calls. Tech stack: CATIA V5, CATIA VBA, ENOVIA PLM, MS Office automation.
