About

Business Development – Nataraj Design Consultancy (NDC): Over the past 3 years, I have been actively driving business development through my venture, Nataraj Design Consultancy (NDC), focusing on renewable energy, waste management, and industrial project execution. Leveraging my strong aerospace engineering background, I bridge technical expertise with business strategy to identify opportunities in biodiesel, bio-CNG, tyre pyrolysis, ethanol, and recycling sectors. I have been involved in client acquisition, proposal development, techno-commercial negotiations, and strategic partnerships. My strength lies in translating complex engineering concepts into viable business models, enabling revenue generation, investor engagement, and end-to-end project execution through consultancy, EPC support, and SPV-based project structures. Aerospace Concessions & ELR’s: With over 16 years of experience in aerospace structural engineering, I have developed deep expertise in aircraft fuselage and wing concessions across major programs like Airbus A350, A320, A330, and A380, as well as Boeing platforms. My work includes handling complex non-conformance issues in fuselage sections (13/14, 16/18), cargo and passenger door surrounds, and wing structures (metallic and composite), with delegated authority as a T200 signatory. I am highly skilled in ELR’s, CAR packages, and VA/VE solutions, delivering cost-effective and technically sound repair strategies. My experience spans structural repair design for wings, pylons, fuselage, and nacelle systems, along with strong capabilities in Model-Based Definition (MBD), reverse thrust systems, and lifecycle engineering support. Automotive & Aerospace Manufacturing: I have hands-on experience in automotive and aerospace design and manufacturing, including 2D-to-3D conversion, aircraft bracket modeling, and manufacturing drawings. I’ve worked in quality control for Airbus components, ensuring machining and sheet metal standards, and contributed to aircraft interiors (G4B galley), assembly drawings, and engineering changes using CATIA V5 across offshore and onsite projects. Landscape & Sprinkler Design (Water Management Systems): With 1.4 years of experience in water management and fluid mechanics, I have designed and executed irrigation systems for farmhouses and landscapes, including sprinkler, drip, and fountain systems. My expertise covers piping layout design, network optimization, BOM preparation, and cost-effective quotations, along with client interaction, design revisions, and coordination with field teams project execution.
