Professional Experience

Industrial Engineering trainee at TOYO Engineering Corporation. June 2014- Aug 2014

W orked in a team of 6 on a PMC project for effective procurement of piping materials from suppliers across the world.

Actively contributed in activities like Vendor Auditing, Vendor Quality Management and Quality Documentations.

Collaborated with Inspection department for maintaining effective supplier quality in compliance with ISO 9001.

W orked on oracle based ERP system for Material management and Procurement.

Suggested improvements in procurement cycle which would reduce 20% time in procurement cycle.

Lean Six Sigma intern at a Nano brewery: Community Beer Works Aug 2013 - Dec 2013

W orked as the Project Leader and collaborated with a team of six engineers.

Used the DMAIC process to locate wastes and improve the transactional processes at CBW.

Developed an online ordering User Interface for the customers of CBW which brought down the total time by 140%.

Used process improvement tools like Pareto Analysis, Why-Why analysis, Fish bone Diagram, FEMA.

Implemented 5S in the administration area to facilitate defect free customer inter actions & service.

Projects

Feb 2014 – May 2014

Quality Control - 9 volt battery design

Conducted gauge linearity, bias and Gauge R & R study to find effectiveness of measuring device.

Designed screening fractional factorial experiment to find effect of various factors on ba ttery voltage and cost with MINITAB.

Used Method of steepest Ascent and Response Surface Methodology to optimize the 9V response.

Devised a Statistical Process Control Sampling Plan for mass production of 9V batteries.

Determined Process Capability for all critical-to-success measures.

Feb 2014 – May 2014

Application of Lean principles

A3 Problem Solving Process-

Mapped A3 for Die Bonding process in Semiconductor Industry. Successfully identified the problem, performed Fault tree

Analysis, applied FEMA, brainstormed suitable countermeasures and developed strategic Plan for implementing improved

process.

Lean Cell Design-

Analyzed Current State Map of the Product manufacturer.

Evaluated different alternative cell designs by giving weights to significant factors obtained by changing the number of

changeovers. Evaluated alternatives with economic considerations e.g. SMED implementation ( STAGE 1, STAGE 2,

STAGE 3)

Achieved 40% profit from improved cell design.

Developed a future state map and suggested additional value stream improvements.

Feb 2014 – May 2014

Logistics and Facility decisions

Used the Router module in LOGWARE to make transportation decisions for a distribution management firm.

Developed a Periodic review Policy plan for inventory control of Complete Hardware Supply Inc.

Optimized the location of Warehouses using MULTICOG and TRANLP in LOGWARE.

Developed a program in Java to find multiple new facility locations based on the requirements and space constraint.

Design and Analysis of Experiment Aug 2013 - Dec 2013

Aimed at introducing a new cake mix in the market that produces a moister cake than the current “super -moist” version of

the competitor using statistical software (Minitab)

Applied experimentation techniques like randomization, blocking for Hypothesis testing and Anova.

Used Minitab 16 to find the proper settings required in a pharmaceutical company so as the medicine developed had less

than 50 mg of by-product in each batch of 100 gm.

Developed Screening experiments, treatment designs and Regression An alysis to find most effective factor settings.

Operation scheduling at Moog Inc. Aug 2013 - Dec 2013

Studied the operation scheduling methods and software used at Moog Inc. to schedule its workers and compared them with

standard methods of scheduling

Analyzed the flaws and errors in the current method of scheduling and suggested solutions to rectify them.

Aug 2013 – Dec 2013

AMUL Supply Chain Analysis and Improvements

Did a comprehensive study of Amul’s Supply chain using various papers published.

Identified the problems in their current supply chain strategy from global supply chain point of view.

Suggested some possible improvements and cost considerations of such improvements.

Developed a strategy for implementing changes in current supply chain with high ROI.

Product development- Manual mixer grinder (Senior Year Project) Aug 2012 - March 2013

Developed a prototype model of a manual mixer grinder that could work without electricity at 3000 rpm to cater the needs

of rural India.

Used design and analysis software to test the prototype and cost analysis was done for its mass production.

May 2014 – Dec 2014

Occupational and Safety Audit at Thermal Power Plant

Completed a safety audit with Hazard Analysis worksheet at Thermal Pow er Plant.

Created a functional tree, Hazard probability and severity matrix to chalk out severity and frequency of hazards.

Performed Fault tree Analysis and Root Cause Analysis, Provide recommendations that comply with OSHA.
