Sr. Design & Application Engineer | Drives & Drives | Mumbai Feb 2022 – Present
▸ Spearheaded design and optimisation of 15+ industrial product lines for material handling and lifting
applications, delivering consistent cost savings through material optimisation and DFM/DFA principles.
▸ Extended product lifespan by 15% and reduced warranty claims by 25% by performing static structural
(FEA) simulations on hydraulic lifts, motorised trolleys, and static lifting equipment to meet EN/IS standards.
▸ Developed full 3D solid models and manufacturing drawings in SOLIDWORKS and AutoCAD with strict
adherence to GD&T tolerancing standards, ensuring zero dimensional non-conformances during first-article
inspections.
▸ Collaborated with cross-functional manufacturing and procurement teams to resolve DFM issues, reducing
average production lead time by eliminating design-stage rework cycles.
▸ Led end-to-end design of Material Handling products: Hydraulic Goods Lifts, Scissor Lifts, Dock Levellers,
and Assembly Machines — reducing component complexity by an average of 20% while maintaining full
safety compliance.
▸ Designed a comprehensive range of Lifting products — Lifting Beams, Spreader Beams, Automatic Coil
Lifters, Container Lifters, and Lifting Tongs — all validated against EN 13155 and applicable IS standards.
▸ Delivering custom engineering solutions for client-specific load capacities, and specific requirements,
resulting in repeat contracts and expanded project scope.
