What I'm looking for

I’m looking to improve my position in the workforce, expand my knowledge and skills, and establish long-term employment in a friendly environment. I want to work with an organization that uses my analytical, management, supervision, and administrative skills for mutual growth and success.

At M/s Orbital Infrastructure Consultancy & Research Private Limited, I prepare geotechnical investigation reports and foundation calculations for bridges, buildings, plants, and other structures. I also handle field and laboratory audits and respond to client queries about foundation design.

My work includes overseeing soil and rock testing, interpreting results, and determining engineering parameters for foundation design. I’ve worked with tests including triaxial, direct shear, UCS, and CBR.

At BPC CONSULTANT INDIA PRIVATE LIMITED, I prepared geotechnical reports and foundation recommendations for projects including airport terminal buildings, bridges, roads, and embankments. I used Google Earth and AutoCAD for survey drawings and subsurface profiles.

Earlier roles at Pioneer Surveyors, Geotreat, and Drilltech Consultant Private Limited included geotechnical reporting, laboratory testing, geological borelogs, and foundation analysis. I also worked on limestone reserve estimation for a proposed cement plant in Karbi Anglong, Assam.
