An Aeronautical engineer enriched with a total experience of 12 years put together in Indian Government Defence Research and Development Organisation and Europeans leading aircraft design, development and manufacturing organisation, Airbus. Apart from achieving my goals as an engineer, successfully positioned and justified myself in various leadership roles involving Project Management, Stakeholder Management and Sub-Contractor Management striking a good balance between my technical and business objectives both in Government and Private sector.

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

LEAD ENGINEER, FLIGHT PHYSICS, AIRBUS INDIA (APR 2011- PRESENT)

Presently working in the Component Aerodynamics team of Flight Physics since June’14 as Airbus India focal managing “Rapid Decompression” activities for Long Range aircrafts viz. A330 & A350XWB. Responsible for sizing cabin floor and monuments satisfying the Type Certification requirements of EASA and FAA during Rapid Decompression.

In addition to the designer role, contributes towards Stakeholder Management meetings that involve the cabin monuments suppliers and airbus external customers. Provide optimized solutions to resolve the issues of deficit in Rapid Decompression requirements.

Project Leader of CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) data production activities managing data generation requests originating from Trans-National sites of Airbus Group in Europe.

Managing a team of 5 sub-contractors by defining project requirements, task allocating and providing technical guidance, ensuring a high quality deliverables to Airbus EU.

Identified talents (as an interviewer), from service vendors, for execution of Aero Data activities

Qualified as Airbus internal quality auditor for EN9100 certification

Quality Representative of Aerodynamics team ensuring compliance to Airbus business procedures by the team members as per EN9100.

ENGINEER, FLUID DYNAMICS, AIRBUS INDIA (MAR 2009- MAR 2011)

Responsible for providing aerodynamic data, assuring highest level of accuracy by adhering to Airbus Aero Data processes, for global aircraft and its components using numerical techniques or by analysing Wind Tunnel tests data, with prime focus towards achieving high fidelity aerodynamic models. SCIENTIST, DEFENCE R&D LAB (GOVT OF INDIA), HYDERABAD, AP, INDIA (SEP 2004- FEB 2009)

Worked in the areas of Ground Testing Facilities (Supersonic Wind Tunnels) for aerodynamic characterization of various missiles configurations.

Managed a group of Technical Officers for performing end to end activities being carried out during the Wind Tunnel Testing

Upgraded the existing testing facility by designing axisymmetric flow nozzles to have an improved quality of air flow for accurate data generation and to accommodate Wind Tunnel models of bigger scale. 2 P a g e
