Bachelors Chemical Engineering Mumbai University, India
JULY, 2011
PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
Manufacturing Engineering Intern Buffalo Wire Works
(May ‘14 – Aug ‘14)
• R & D of new product, Rubber Screen Panels used in mining industries using Injection Molding technique following ISO 9001
• Scheduled and Planned operations, Implemented Strategic planning and control, Effective use of FMEA tool
• Application of Lean manufacturing tools SMED, Standardized Work, 5S, Time studies for DIE changeover problem
• Value stream Mapped the current production line
Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Intern Community Beer Works
(Sep '13 – Dec ‘13)
• Reduced loopholes right from process of procuring from supplier to customer using Six Sigma tools “DMAIC” to
the transactional process in an organization
• Reviewed and applied 5S, cause and effect diagram, histogram, Pareto Chart, Value Stream Mapping etc
• Analyzed the process using Six Sigma tools like VSM, KPIV/KPOV and Improved process that generates profit
to organization
• Suggested use of portal which reduces the lead time between ordering and receiving in transactional process
• Standardized work, defined takt time for each process, lead to reduced process time from 165 minutes to 8
minutes
Production Supervisor National Organic Chemicals of India LTD (RCD)
(July ‘11 July ‘12)
• Supervised production unit known CBS, a chemical used as an accelerator in production of tires by clients such
as MRF, Monsento
Researched and seek Continuous Improvement to make production at faster and improved quality rate
• Analyzed the production rate using previous data and Implemented VSM, Followed hazardous operability process
(HAZOP)
• Used FMEA tool to locate the loopholes, resulted in increased production rate by 3%
ACADEMIC PROJECTS University at Buffalo, State University of New York
(Sep’13 – Dec’14)
Manufacturing 9V battery with minimum variability Quality Assurance
• Achieved results with minimum variability and least cost $5 to $3
• Conducted Measurement Systems Analysis using tools like Gage Linearity and Bias, Gage Repeatability and
Reproducibility (GR&R)
• Achieved 9V voltage readings with minimum variations using ANOVA, Fractional Factorial, Central
Composite Design(CCD)
• Conducted Path Of Steepest Ascent to achieve the goal and Capability Analysis to satisfy standards established by
the customer
• Developed Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) and work instructions to manufacture battery with optimal
results
Lean Approach in Manufacturing Industry A3 and Cell Design
• Studied and Analyzed the case related to Toyota Manufacturing Industry
• Mapped A3 after analyzing the current issues, and suggested improvements and implemented corrective
measurements
• Developed a current state and future state map for Toyota case study, Lead time was reduced from 48 days to 11
days
• Identified challenges and suggested methods in streamline current process
Developing a New Cake Mixture Design and Analysis of Experiments
• Developed a new decorum for the experiment which compare the existing and the new formulated cake mix, using
DOE
• New Mix was 15% more moist, Used Factorial Designs and conducted pooling to eliminate confounded factors
from Main effects and suggest accurate settings
• Used a regression Analysis and Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) to eliminate the variability using
ANOVA and Minitab
Innovative Key Chain Design using Pro E Computer Integrated Manufacturing
• Designed cost efficient and innovative key chain in Pro E (Creo) by putting different ideas together through
Sketching
• Formulated a CNC code to Machine a simple plaque in Manufacturing job, also formulated a ladder diagram using
PLC for a traffic light and sorted different parts using sensors
