PROFESSIONAL PROFILE

Design Engineer at General Electric (GE), Bangalore, India (July 2008-Feb 2011)

Designed Advanced Combustion devices for Next Generation Aircraft Gas Turbine Engines at GE

under ‘New Product Introduction’ program with emphasis on lower emissions, and reduced

acoustic dynamics.

Tools used: Engineering Design, Unigraphics to create CAD components, Gambit for

meshing, computational simulations (Combustion reacting flow and non-reacting) with Fluent and

statistical analysis and others.

Designed and built Advanced TAPS II Aero Mixer for conceptual design of LEAP-X combustor.

The design was identified as very innovative and efficient and was chosen for detailed design. It

led to nomination for ‘Rockstar Innovator Award” ERW 2010.

Developed standard procedures for executing Computational Fluid Dynamics methods for

business teams leading to process simplification, efficiency and reduced team overhead

Designed and built a working prototype ‘wind turbine’ during the leadership training for young

engineers ‘Navigating GE as a Technologist’

Specialty: Proficiency in gas turbine combustion technology, Heat transfer, Project Execution and

Management, Statistical & Analytical skills, Team Work
