I develop sustainable architectural coatings and R&D products through formulation, testing, and data-driven innovation.
What I'm looking for
I've developed sustainable architectural coatings and additives at Behr Process Paints, optimizing formulations to reduce raw-material expenditure by 5% without affecting quality. I also strengthened laboratory safety and emergency-response procedures, contributing to zero reportable incidents as Shift Supervisor.
Across Aquasolution and IIT Guwahati, I've managed product-development projects, completed 200+ validation test cycles, and built prototypes for microplastic removal and electricity-free water filtration. I'm continuing to build AI and machine-learning capabilities to bring data-driven innovation into chemical R&D.
