Senior Design Engineer- Infosys Limited (Engineering Services Division) Aug 2014 – Dec 2016

Client- Boeing

• Worked with onsite team to facilitate design and smooth transition of CAD models of flagship B-787 Landing Gear components from CATIA V4 to V5 database.

• Managed and led a cross-functional team of 7 members to reduce overall turnaround time by 22% using innovative automated CAD model drafting; Six Sigma methodology and Primavera P6.

Client- Caterpillar Inc.

• Designed and reviewed CAD models, welding templates of CAT H120E Hydraulic Hammers and breaker tool of CAT 320 Exca- vators. Maintained project documentation, product revisions and BOM (bill of materials) spreadsheets.

• Analyzed designs of Hammer Mounting Brackets in Solidworks and AutoCAD by following ASME GD&T standards and DFM modelling practices, thus ensuring quality deliverables. Graduate Researcher- University of Florida Jan 2019 – Dec 2019 Rocket Triggered Lightning -

• Designed a small rocket, propulsion motor and ignition system to be fired into the storm clouds. It is attached to a metal wire to provide conducting path to the environmental charge, thus producing artificial lightning strike.

• Developing a ground station electrical grids able to sustain consecutive micro-second variation of extreme electro-magnetic and thermal effects of artificial Rocket Triggered CG (Cloud to Ground) electric strokes. Fleet System Specialist – (Adecco onsite at) WAYMO (Google) Jan 2020 – Present Self Driving Car

• Analyze data obtained from the various sensor systems like LiDAR, RADAR and Vision systems to improve car reliability and functionality in full autonomous mode.

• Simulating complex real world problems to assess and improve system reaction by identification and differentiation between objects for enabling it to automatically maneuver itself using electro-mechanical actuators. PATENTS PENDING

Mechanized Household Ironing System (MHIS) (Ref. No- 201*********) -

• Developed an innovative ironing machine which is very cheap, light, portable and fully automatic. It can iron any garment within 30 seconds.

Mechanically Autonomous System for Efficient Coach Water Refilling in Indian Railways (Ref. No-3671/DEL/2015) -

• Developed a mechanically autonomous system which could be manufactured in 1 USD/unit to preserve water wastage of approx. 100 million gallons/day across entire country. Vehicle TAC 1 -

• Developed an autonomous hybrid vehicle which was able to cover all modes of transportation (Air, Land and Water) using only its tires. Capable of lifting off as a VTOL aircraft and propel itself on water like a hydroplane.

• Designed a hybrid transmission gearbox system which can produce high RPM (Cotta SN1708). Further modulated for high RPM in air propulsion as well as high torque for water propulsion.

• Worked with industry experts for the vehicle prototype design- IC engine and specifications; wheel and propeller airfoil; pro- peller engagement system; transmission system and transportation mode changing mechanism. EDUCATION

• Master of Science - Mechanical Engineering (Dynamics, Systems and Controls) Jan 2017 - Dec 2018 University of Florida (Florida, USA)

• Bachelor of Technology - Instrumentation & Control Engineering (Electrical and Electronics) Jul 2010 - May 2014 SRM University (Chennai, India)
