What I'm looking for

I seek a hands-on engineering role in plastics manufacturing where I can lead process improvements, optimize moulding operations, and collaborate cross-functionally in a safety-focused, growth-oriented environment.

I am a Machine Engineer with extensive hands-on experience in plastics molding and production supervision across multiple manufacturing units. I have worked progressively as Production Supervisor, Production Engineer, Shift Engineer, and Machine Engineer, managing day-to-day production, maintenance, and process improvements.

I specialize in injection and blow molding operations, mold management, troubleshooting mechanical failures, and optimizing molding parameters to improve cycle time, material efficiency, and part quality. I also prepare technical documentation, lead engineering projects, and coordinate closely with production, quality, and procurement teams.

I bring practical knowledge of AutoCAD, NX(Unigraphics) and mold wizard, MS Office, and a positive, continuous-learning attitude focused on safe, timely, and cost-effective engineering solutions.
