What I'm looking for

i am looking for remote/ work from anywhere job

I'm a Chemical Engineer with 5 years of industry experience, including 2+ years as a Process Safety Engineer at CSIR-NEERI, one of India's premier national research institutes. My core expertise lies in Quantitative Risk Assessment (QRA), consequence and dispersion modelling using DNV PHAST and SAFETI, Maximum Credible Accident (MCA) analysis, and fire and explosion risk evaluation — work I've delivered for industrial and petrochemical clients across multiple projects.

I'm skilled in identifying process hazards, calculating Individual and Societal Risk, developing risk mitigation strategies, and preparing high-quality technical safety reports that translate complex risk data into clear, actionable recommendations for clients. I have hands-on experience with HAZOP studies and a solid grounding in Process Safety Management (PSM) principles.

I'm currently building further expertise in P&ID interpretation and LOPA, and I'm actively expanding my knowledge of international safety standards to support global process safety work.

I bring strong analytical thinking, attention to detail, and a proven ability to work independently and deliver under project timelines. I'm based in India and fully open to remote opportunities with organisations worldwide.
