Manufacturing Engineering Co-Op – Industrial Engineering Jan 2020 – July 2020 Whirlpool Corporation, Amana, IA
Successfully optimized routes for door delivery process using AutoCAD and created reductions to introduce AGVs to support refrigerator assembly and material handling, achieved hard savings of $130,000.
Created a new process flow for freezer subassembly. Relocated the area by improving the logistics and developed new facility layouts, upgraded labor model to reduce downtime (SPC), achieved hard savings of $130,000.
Certified and did MODAPTS for several workstations to record time studies for Proplanner Software.
Supported trial runs for a new overhead conveyor for refrigerator liners by reorganizing the liners inventory and conducting capacity plans. Created yamazumi charts for different areas to support line rate change.
Improved the movement of liners scrap produced from 2 thermoforming machines (Plastics) by collecting scrap data, managing cycle time and designing new carts used exclusively for scrap to avoid safety issues in the area.
Led multiple quality and productivity kaizen using lean six sigma techniques to eliminate red muri, door dents and source of contamination (5S) and improve GUI testing procedure on the assembly line.
Supported trial runs for R600A refrigerant which has low GWP, for refrigerator backside and door line (NPI). Operations Engineer - Production Planning and Control Jan 2017 – Jun 2018 Yellow Stone Engineers India Pvt. Ltd

Risk Assessment in Automotive Assembly using Process Failure Mode and Effects Analysis Aug 2020 – Dec 2020 Identified the possible risks and bottlenecks that can occur during the assembly process of an automobile and used PFMEA to evaluate the potential failures and assign a corrective action based on the RPN value for each process step. Design and Fabrication of Improved Air Compressed Vehicle Sep 2017 - May 2018 Led the team to build a vehicle that is cost-effective & light-weight and won Best Project award. Utilized a double-acting engine to run the vehicle using crank-chain mechanism & a 60-liter capacity air tank that could run the vehicle for 5 miles. Design of a Forward Pick Area – Logistics Distribution System Jan 2019 – May 2019 Analyzed data from the item master list in all warehouse SKU’s and its corresponding pick history to rank SKU’s based on its claim to the forward pick area. Slotted based on product mix families and implemented zone picking method. Designed warehouse layouts like mezzanine bin shelving flow racks to house 60 SKU’s and a horizontal carousal.
