What I'm looking for

I'm seeking opportunities in geotechnical engineering, infrastructure consultancy, ground improvement, waste/landfill engineering, or civil engineering R&D.

At IIT Guwahati, I researched the geotechnical use of Landfill Fine Fraction (LFF), evaluating its behavior under foundation-related loading. I tested unreinforced and geocell-reinforced LFF and interpreted load-settlement response and bearing performance.

I investigated PPC stabilization at multiple dosages, assessing changes in strength and deformation. I also developed PLAXIS finite element models for settlement, deformation, and slope-stability-related analyses.

My research includes landfill cover systems and old dumpsite slope stability, alongside laboratory testing and technical reporting. I'm seeking opportunities in geotechnical engineering, infrastructure consultancy, ground improvement, waste and landfill engineering, or civil engineering R&D.
