About

As a Mechanical Engineering graduate from IIT Kharagpur with a focus on Mechatronics, Robotics and Automotive Systems, I bring a strong technical foundation in the design, integration, and optimization of electromechanical systems. My expertise spans automation, advanced control engineering, and the development of sustainable mobility solutions. At Ola Electric, I am responsible for automating dry electrode manufacturing processes for next-generation battery technologies. My work centers on implementing advanced process control strategies, integrating sensor-driven feedback systems, and optimizing manufacturing workflows to ensure precision, scalability, and operational efficiency. Throughout my career, I have contributed to multidisciplinary projects that bridge mechanical, electrical, and computational domains, consistently delivering high-impact engineering solutions. These experiences have honed my problem-solving and decision-making abilities, enabling me to approach challenges with confidence and precision. Would love to get in touch and collaborate with professionals and organizations at the forefront of innovation in advanced manufacturing, automation, and sustainable mobility. Let’s connect!
