IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I'm a project management and mechanical estimating professional with 9+ years across manufacturing, aerospace, technical sales, and commercial operations.
At EZ STAK, I develop mechanical estimates and commercial proposals through SolidWorks drawing reviews, BOM analysis, and material, labour, and equipment costing. I support approximately US$3.2M in monthly sales activity while validating pricing against a 48.5% gross-profit target.
Previously at ABB India, I managed 20–30+ active RFQs, tenders, and industrial opportunities per quarter, supporting ₹20–25 crore in annual order intake. I coordinated cross-functional teams, monitored cost and schedule performance across concurrent projects, and supported 95%+ on-time proposal and project delivery.
I began in aerospace design at Tata Advanced Systems, creating production-ready mechanical designs and documentation for aerospace components. I bring hands-on capability in project controls, estimating, CAD, ERP/PDM systems, commercial risk assessment, and technical proposal development.
