What I'm looking for

I’m looking to grow in electrical engineering roles where I can own RFQ-to-order workflows, lead techno-commercial proposals, coordinate with global OEMs, and deliver technically compliant, cost-efficient solutions with strong cross-functional collaboration.

I’m an Electrical Engineer focused on end-to-end ownership of proposals and delivery—starting from RFQ analysis and technical solution development through vendor/OEM coordination, quotation management, negotiation, and order management.

My MS in Industrial Engineering & Management (Gold Medalist) and strong 2023–2025 grounding support my work in procurement processes, techno-commercial compliance, and import/export coordination exposure.

In Sales & Application and costing roles, I manage technical reviews, cost estimation, and customer requirement analysis for instrumentation and MEP scope, ensuring solutions are technically compliant, cost-efficient, and on time.

I collaborate with global OEM partners like Honeywell, Endress+Hauser, WIKA, Siemens, and Warom, translating client needs into clear techno-commercial proposals and supporting client technical queries during discussions and after-sales.
