EMPLOYMENT HISTORY

Operations Intern, Heavy Vehicles Factory, India

May 2006 - March 2007

. Performed Value Stream Mapping on the shop floor and identified

the value adding and non-value adding processes

. Performed FMEA Analysis on the Gear Trains of Army Tanks

. Inspected and tested the precision and repeatability of products

and production equipment

. Project member in implementing ISO 9001:2000 for production

. Performed In-line Quality Control tests on the products being

manufactured, thereby achieving a reduction in rework time by

60% and rework cost by 30%

. Utilized Lean Six Sigma methods in the manufacturing process and

thus achieved a reduction in cycle time of 20% and throughput

time of 45%

. Reduced programming and set-up times by 30% through identifying

bottlenecks and standardization

. Performed defect prevention through quality inspections and

correction on the Torsion Bars

. Analyzed and improved assembly-line methods and suggested a

change in operating methodologies to decrease the number of

parts rejected

Special Projects Assistant, JACMET, ASU Polytechnic, Mesa, AZ

Jan. 2008 - Dec. 2009

. Responsible for the coordinated management of multiple related

projects which resulted in an increase in profits, as well as

the company being recognized as a forerunner in the education

sector

. Interacted with the Business Owners and SME's along with Project

Architects to gather client specific business requirements and

translate them in various business artifacts for the technical

team

. Built credibility, established rapport, and maintained

communication with participants at multiple levels, including

representatives from Raytheon, Boeing and General Dynamics

. Presented periodic Dashboard and Top Line reports on the current

program, future opportunities and participant issues

. Executed and maintained program management processes and

disciplines in the areas of program schedule, quality

management, human resource management and cost management which

resulted in a smoother workflow with no discrepancies

ACADEMIC PROJECTS

Regression Analysis

Dec. 2008

. Developed a Multiple Linear Regression Model which was used to

identify the critical factors which affect the ranking of

various engineering schools

. Performed Analyses of Variance (ANOVA), Step Wise Regression and

Transformation on the Regression Model using the software

"MINITAB"

. Analyzed the results and suggested alternate analyses including

Best Subset Regression and Robust Regression which could be

carried out further on the dataset

Simulating Stochastic Systems

May 2008

. Programmed, coded and simulated a Flexible Manufacturing System

using the simulation software "SLAM II"

. Applied the given constraints and specifications in order to

simulate and analyze the number of machines to be installed and

the order in which operations are to be carried out in a 3 part

system

. Analyzed the various outputs and arrived at the most time

efficient and cost effective process plan

Information Systems

May 2008

. Created a web based Hospital Database using Visual Basic as the

front end and MS Access as the back end

. Queries were coded and generated using SQL

. Designed and developed Crystal Reports to retrieve patient based

statistics across all organizational health providers

. An editable version of the Code View allowed incorporation of

future enhancements

Design and Fabrication of an Off-road Dune Buggy

May 2007

. Developed an Off-road vehicle capable of travelling on varied

terrains

. The vehicle had a Double "A" suspension system fabricated

entirely by the team

. This project used "AutoCAD" and "Pro-E" to design the vehicle

according to specifications

. Simulation was carried out using the software "Solid Works" in

order to determine how the design would behave as a physical

object
