Professional Experience
Project Leader RWF – Production Unit under Ministry of Railways, Government of India| Bangalore, India | 12/14-5/15
Led team of four in performing experimentation and analysis during project aimed at improving fuel consumption of rotary hearth furnace.
§ Generated annual savings of $233K+ by optimizing furnace’s fuel oil consumption without any cost implications; observed and
pinpointed critical points in processes; compiled and analyzed experimental data, based on which recommendations were made;
implemented proposed configuration.
§ Increased productivity 5% over course of a month; initially, excessive scaling occurred on heated billets when they exited furnace
and entered radial forging machine; redistributed soaking time and decreased air flow in soaking area, thus reducing oxidation;
achieved better forgings due to non-inclusion of scales, which resulted in fewer rejections.
Officer Intern RWF – Production Unit under Ministry of Railways, Government of India| Bangalore, India | 1/14 .
§ Mastered manufacturing processes associated with steel making, pressurized bottom pouring technique, and heat treatment of
cast wheels.
§ Studied radial forging for manufacturing railway axles, heat treatment of axles, machining, inspection, and wheel set assembly.
Academic Projects
Quality Improvement Project University of Texas at Arlington| Arlington, TX |12/17
§ Led the project, following the Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) cycle through various total quality management techniques such as the 5
Whys, root cause analysis, flow chart creation, Ishikawa diagram creation, and Pareto analysis.
Forecasting Project University of Texas at Arlington| Arlington, TX |12/17
§ Given the previous year’s sales trend and data carried out time series, exponential smoothing and winters methods approach
forecasting to compare the actual demand vs forecasted demand.
Installation of an automated Conveyor Belt Project University of Texas at Arlington| Arlington, TX | 12/17
§ Discussed the project scope statement, deliverables, technical requirements, and milestones; developed work breakdownstructure
and network diagram for activities while assigning resources, budget reserves, and management reserves to work packages; made
recommendations to ensure that project key performance indicators were on track; identified all conflicts during each of the four
phases of project life cycle in quarterly status reports presented to Vice President of Operations.
Simulation Study Project University of Texas at Arlington| Arlington, TX | 05/17
Developed discrete event simulation model. Achieved required results within the established margin of error.
§ Implemented theory of constraints to build silicon wafer production facility while identifying bottlenecks in system and to estimate
production output for first month. Added multiple improvements in various scenarios and with different equipment to obtain
desired output by year-end.
Direct Time Study Project Subway| Arlington, TX | 9/16
Performed study to determine the standard time it took an employee to make a sandwich.
§ Conducted analysis of various foreign elements (e.g., machine failures, customer argument, transaction problems) that affected
the time and performance of employees by using snapback and continuous methods. Suggested ways in which to improve and
counter foreign elements, based on results.
