- Conducted experimental work to investigate process parameters in laser-based additive manufacturing. - Conducted characterization tests on additively manufactured samples to validate material properties.

- Optimization and implementation of manufacturing processes for automotive components. Making production more efficient, easier, and safer. - Conducting root cause analyses regarding issues on the production and assembly lines. Implementing solutions to ensure production uptime. - Contributing to product development through design and assembly in CAD software with GDT principles. - Simultaneous responsibility across multiple projects alongside cross-functional collaboration with suppliers and production te

- Data analysis and visualization to support quality management measures, implementing quality principles like DMAIC, Six Sigma, and Kaizen. - Conducting root cause analysis on rejected fuel injectors. Investigating and identifying the reason behind a quality defect to prevent future defects.

Involved in product development using CAD and FEM. Process improvement engineering on the production line. Built upon responsibilities and learnings during this student internship as a permanent employee after graduation.

Focus on high-performance materials, computational materials, FEM simulation, alloy design, additive manufacturing, and materials characterization.
