What I'm looking for

I am seeking opportunities that allow me to innovate in electric vehicle technologies while contributing to sustainable mobility solutions.

I am a dedicated Electrification Design Engineer with a strong background in electric vehicle powertrain design and development. Currently, I serve as a Senior Associate Engineer at Caterpillar Inc., where I focus on electrification and energy solutions. My role involves utilizing advanced tools like Siemens Amesim for product architecting and developing high-voltage power distribution units and battery systems for large mining trucks.

Previously, I worked as a Deputy Manager at Volvo-Eicher Commercial Vehicles, where I led the design and development of electric buses and trucks. My contributions included overseeing the production of a 9m electric bus and developing prototypes showcased at major auto expos. I have a proven track record of delivering projects from concept to production, ensuring compliance with industry standards and optimizing designs for performance and safety.
