Work experience:

Assistant Systems Engineer- Tata Consultancy Services (TCS)

December 2010- May 2011

. Comprehensive training in Informatica, SQL and other Data warehousing

tools.

. Responsible for organizing and managing business data and improving

business models by simulating business logic using data mining and

data warehousing concepts for the CITI Financial Group.

. Responsible for data mining, data extraction operations as well as

projects dealing with the development of process planning for the

clients based on their business data.

Project Engineer - NTTF Industries Ltd

June 2010- November 2010

. Analyzed shop floor data and implemented improvements thereby reducing

non value added manufacturing operations.

. Was involved in introducing improvements to maximize profits in

manufacturing operations.

. Responsible for designing equipment layout, workflow, continuous

improvement.

. Developed processes, procedures and mechanisms for entity management

systems and capacity systems.

. Increase of OEE of shop floor operations to 71% from an earlier 63%

with the help of TQM concepts.

Research Intern- Engine Factory Avadi, Ministry of Defence, India (An ISO

9001:2000 establishment).

December 2009-May 2010

. Was assigned to Flexible Manufacturing Systems section as well as the

assembly and testing line.

. Was involved in the process of the manufacturing and testing of MBT

(Main Battle Tank) engines on the developmental level.

. Conducted time studies to understand the impact that the losses had on

the cycle time.

. Found various technical factors that were contributing to production

downtime and manufacturing losses (mudas) and proposed corresponding

kaizens after thorough simulation and dry testing.

. Assisted in controlling heating inside the DNC machines by modifying

the coolant regulation mechanism, changing it from a worker machine

setup to a fully automatic one using pneumatic systems activated by a

PLC program and also assisted in the planning process leading up to

the installation of the equipment. These improvements helped the OEE

of the FMS setup increase to 73.20 % from an earlier 65%.

Miscellaneous Projects:

. Improvement of Overall Equipment Effectiveness by Minimization of

Manufacturing Losses using TPM.

. Study and analysis of efficiency of Light Rail transportation systems

and networks in the DFW area.

. Study and analysis of Cross Docking warehousing strategy with respect

to Wal-Mart and 3PL firms.

. Forecast model based on the modified rolling Grey's Forecast Model for

predicting the energy consumption based on the GDP of a country.

. Mathematical Regression model to study the relation between number of

customers, number of open counters and checkout times in Wal-Mart using

SAS. Simulated the data using Monte-Carlo simulation methods to develop

queuing models for service counters.

. Amphibious robot with AI making use of IC engines to power the robot

with the use of 8051 microprocessor chip to handle navigation and

obstacle recognition.

Technical Skills:

. Design analysis tools: Solid Works, Ansys/Ansys Workbench,

Pro/E, CATIA, AutoCAD, Mechanical desktop.
