Mechanical Engineer, Sneha Elevators LLP – Hyderabad, India 07/2019 - 07/2022

• Created detailed 2D and 3D drawings of elevator cabins using AutoCAD & SOLIDWORKS and design documentation for car frames, guide rails, motor housing and door operators of medical, domestic, and industrial elevators.

• Created bill of materials (BOM), facilitated efficient procurement process and coordinated inventory management ensuring cost- effective resource utilization and seamless project execution.

• Conducted design review meetings to ensure the compliance of component drawings and assembly drawings with project standards.

• Performed risk assessment activities- tolerance analysis, DFMEA, risk reports and simulated use testing to resolve residual risk for products under development and post-production, as required.

• Boosted structural efficiency by 15% and cut weight by 5% of support brackets, columns and cabin frame by conducting FEA analysis on ANSYS utilizing the static stress analysis and optimizing the design.

• Analyzed manufacturing processes and conducted cost estimation for elevator components, including cabin frames, guide rails, and door operators, resulting in accurate budget forecasts and informed decision-making for resource allocation.

• Achieved a 10% reduction in material costs by implementing value engineering techniques to optimize elevator car components while adhering to performance and safety standards.

• Headed a 3-member team for the shift from weld fixtures to bolt fixtures of a 3-story elevator’s main frame and support columns to address assembly issues achieving a 72% conversion rate resulting in a reduction of assembly time by 15%.

• Collaborated with cross-functional teams to address the problem of maintenance of misalignment of doors caused due to wear and tear.

• Contributed to the ideation, development and testing of new product concepts to validate design concepts and functionality.

• Supported the sales staff by providing engineering consultation during the development of proposals and quotations.

• Conducted regular review meetings to drive alignment with project goals while fostering effective communication and ensuring continuous improvement in efficiency.

Mechanical Engineering Intern, Nuclear Fuel Complex – Hyderabad, India 05/2018 - 08/2018

• Analyzed separation force, peak axial force, stresses and strains on tube and mandel during the pilgering process applying the theory of plasticity.

• Developed a program on MATLAB for the calculation of slip and identified an optimal range of tube diameters to eliminate slip resulting in enhanced mechanical efficiency during pilgering. Graduate Assistant – Component Design, University of Colorado, Boulder 01/2023 – 05/2023

• Assisted faculty with lab sessions and played an active role in guiding students with their design projects.

• Mentored students by conducting office hours, providing timely assistance and clarifications. Projects

Structural Analysis of I-35W Mississippi River Bridge 09/2023 – 11/2023

• Performed FEA assessment on ABAQUS to analyze stress distribution and structural integrity of the bridge before collapse.

• Conducted experimental failure scenarios of ABAQUS for various loading cases to study the dangers of undersized gusset plate and the effect of buckling on it.

Development of in-house bike storage 09/2022 – 12/2022

• Modeled and fabricated a prototype based on user inputs and gathered feedback on its functionality and usability to refine the design.

• Produced a prototype and developed a financial model to support its launch as a market-ready product. Baja SAE 06/2016 - 02/2017

• As a vice-captain, led a 25-member team overseeing design, analysis and vehicle fabrication.

• Received "Innovation Award" for designing and implementing an innovative four-wheel steering mechanism in an All-Terrain Vehicle.
