Bhushan Kargi
@bhushankargi
Research & Development Engineer specializing in FEM/CFD simulations and mechanical design optimization.
What I'm looking for
I am a results-oriented Research & Development Engineer with over 5 years of international experience in mechanical engineering, specializing in FEM and CFD simulations, product development, and design optimization. I have a proven track record of reducing prototyping costs and shortening development cycles by validating simulation results with physical testing and recommending material and design changes across cross-functional teams.
My experience spans valve systems, compressors, and elastomer seal modelling using tools such as ABAQUS, SolidWorks Simulation/Flow, LS-DYNA, ANSYS, HyperWorks, and OptiStruct. I communicate effectively in cross-functional and customer-facing settings and am business-fluent in German while maintaining strong programming skills in MATLAB, Fortran, and C/C++.
