Reduced casting waste by 10% and sustained a 95% on-time delivery rate at current role.

Published researcher in advanced alloy systems (Al-Li). Seeking to leverage foundry and quality expertise in a challenging production or quality engineering role.

Senior Production Engineer at Batliboi Ltd. (2024-09 – Present)

• Planned and supervised daily cast iron foundry operations for 50+ component variants, sustaining a 95% on-time delivery rate across monthly production cycles.
• Reduced melt shop waste by 10% by optimising charge composition, induction furnace parameters, and ladle practices — saving measurable material cost per month.
• Performed OES spectrometric analysis on every heat to verify chemical composition against grade specifications (FG260 & FG350), achieving zero chemistry-related rejections.
• Controlled heat treatment cycles in SRF furnace; introduced a temperature-time logging protocol that improved traceability and reduced heat treatment rework.
• Maintained ISO 17025-aligned lab documentation — calibration schedules, equipment accuracy records, and corrective action logs — with zero open NCRs at last internal audit.
• Led root cause investigations for recurring casting defects (porosity, shrinkage, misrun) using 5-Why methodology; implemented process changes that cut rework by 15%.

Junior Engineer at Unitech Metallurgical Services Pvt. Ltd. (2024-01 – 2024-09)

• Executed 100+ metallurgical and spectrometric tests per month in a NABL-accredited, ISO 17025-certified laboratory, covering chemical composition, hardness, tensile, and impact testing.
• Prepared detailed technical test reports for 20+ client accounts across automotive, defence, and infrastructure sectors, ensuring zero report rejections during client or third-party audits.
• Calibrated and maintained 8+ lab instruments (spectrometers, hardness testers, tensile machines); upheld measurement traceability and kept calibration compliance at 100%.
• Supported R&D metallurgical analysis including microstructural evaluation and defect characterisation, contributing findings directly to client corrective action reports.
• Ensured full compliance with ISO 17025 quality and safety protocols across all laboratory and production activities.

Student Intern at Hertz Testing & Training Center (2023-07 – 2023-08)

• Gained hands-on NDT experience (LPT, MPT, UT, RT) for material integrity assessment; prepared inspection and microstructural reports for client audits.

Student Intern at J.M.T. India Inc. (2020-12 – 2021-04)

• Assisted in production process optimisation during diploma-level internship; conducted sand testing, mold inspections, and final product quality checks.
