What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that foster innovation and collaboration in engineering projects.

I am currently pursuing a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Mechanical Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, specializing in Thermal Engineering and Refrigeration and Air Conditioning. My academic journey has been marked by a strong focus on advanced manufacturing technology and mining engineering, culminating in a Master of Science in Mining and Mechanical Engineering, where I achieved a CGPA of 9.0. My thesis on blind backfilling of underground mine workings showcases my commitment to innovative solutions in the field.

With extensive experience as a Project Engineer, I have led R&D projects sponsored by both government and industry, focusing on the physico-mechanical properties of rocks and soil mechanics. My role involved conducting various mechanical tests and contributing to significant research publications in reputable journals. I am passionate about applying my knowledge to real-world challenges, particularly in mining and geotechnical engineering.
