I focus on reducing the cost of cardiopulmonary bypass systems through innovative design and cross-functional collaboration. My responsibilities span from early concept development to design transfer, with a strong emphasis on: Greenfield cost estimation to identify cost-saving opportunities in new product designs Conducting risk analysis (DFMEA, PFMEA) to mitigate potential issues proactively Supporting ISO 13485 audits and maintaining compliance with regulatory requirements

Owned full product development lifecycle from concept to production on liquid-cooled battery modules and IP67 BMS casings Directed the creation of design with 150+ items per assembly Created multiple prototypes and led them to production with direct liaison with suppliers. Conducted FMEA analysis for both design and process. Led the FAI , PPAP phase at in offshore development center and production site. Lead the procurement of HV Connectors Design based on AISI standards

Directed activity-based cost modeling for automotive braking systems. Led VA/VE and should-cost analysis for EU boiler HMIs. Boosted productivity by 14% via lean methods. Reviewed 2000+ patents for a fuel-cell study as panel expert. Conducted FTO on fuel-cell stack, FCCU, and water separator. Led weekly Kanban board meetings and served as RBEI expert on fuel-cell control patents.

Benchmarked and cost estimated competitor automotive braking system products in the market. Technical support for fuel-cell design from India to Germany Analyzed part drawings to derive accurate cost data for manufacturing and supplier negotiations Presented cost optimization and design strategies to cross-functional teams, ensuring alignment across engineering, procurement, and production
