## About

I am a Manufacturing Engineering and Industrial Automation professional with hands\-on experience across automotive and oil & gas sectors, contributing to product development, NPI, and factory\-scale manufacturing solutions for global programs\. In automotive manufacturing, I have led the design and deployment of custom jigs, fixtures, SPMs, conveyors, racks, pallets, and material\-handling systems for commercial vehicle assembly\. I have worked closely with suppliers and cross\-functional teams to develop packaging and rack solutions for Asia\-Pacific and North American OEMs, ensuring compliance with regional standards, ergonomics, and operational efficiency\. In the oil & gas domain, I have led NPD/NPI initiatives for mechanical P&ID controllers and executed valve automation projects for clients including EIL, NPCIL, L&T Hydrocarbon, Reliance, BPCL, GAIL, ONGC, and IOCL\. My scope covered instrument sizing, actuator mounting kit design, BOM ownership, and coordination across engineering, procurement, quality, and vendors from concept to execution\. I bring strong experience in manufacturing process planning, including MTM and MOST time studies, line balancing, TAKT planning, and active participation in DFMEA and PFMEA to ensure robust, scalable processes\. I regularly support design engineering through DFM/DFA reviews, feasibility studies, and continuous improvement initiatives\. Backed by SolidWorks, Creo, and AutoCAD proficiency and a Lean Six Sigma Green Belt, I focus on delivering manufacturable, cost\-effective, and high\-quality solutions at the intersection of design, factory operations, supply chain, and suppliers\.
