What I'm looking for

I seek an early-career aerospace role focused on UAV and propulsion design, CFD-driven aerodynamic research, and hands-on mechanical development in collaborative, innovation-driven teams.

I am an aerospace engineer with a B.Tech in Aerospace Engineering and a minor in Animation and VFX (CGPA 8.27). I focus on practical design, computational analysis, and hands-on systems development.

Through internships and research positions I have designed and developed UAVs, built a 1U CubeSat, and created a self-deploying antenna mechanism. As a research trainee I trained on CFD and ANSYS and authored a paper entitled Analysis of CD Nozzle through Expanded Duct.

My projects include the design and fabrication of VTOL and single-rotor RC planes, a CFD-based aeroacoustics analysis of UAV propellers at varying RPMs, and a motion-sensing wireless EV charger. These efforts combined design, simulation, and prototype fabrication to deliver practical, testable systems.

I bring strong CAD/CAM and programming abilities, a creative background in animation and VFX, and a pragmatic, research-driven approach. I am eager to contribute to aerospace R&D, UAV and propulsion development, and multidisciplinary engineering teams.
