What I'm looking for

I’m seeking an aligned mechanical design or CAE engineering role where I can apply hands-on design, simulation, and validation to build reliable, manufacturable systems.

At Koolmill Systems Limited, I contributed to the design and prototype validation of the MBS-F1 precision rice milling platform, supporting work aimed at reducing grain-processing costs. I used FEA to validate stress, thermal behaviour, and fatigue life, enabling a 15% improvement in structural reliability.

I developed modular subsystems using DFMA and DFM principles and delivered manufacturing-ready designs with GD&T, tolerance stack-ups, and supplier documentation. I also supported root-cause analysis and DFMEA for failures observed during field trials.

Earlier, as a Mechanical design intern at Essae Digitronics, I created automotive components and engineering drawings in CATIA V5, following OEM specifications and ISO TS 16949 standards. I’m focused on hands-on engineering work where simulation supports practical, manufacturable design.
