Experience

  • Designed 10+ parametric CAD models (SolidWorks) for machine components and sheet metal enclosures, optimising manufacturability and assembly feasibility across 4 projects; supported large-scale prototype installations with real-time feedback to resolve assembly challenges, cutting post-installation adjustments by 15%. 
  •  Collaborated with senior engineers and cross-functional teams to refine mechanical systems using DFM principles, standardising 12+ components to reduce assembly complexity and prototype rework by 20%.
  •  Led the development of a collapsible tent prototype featuring a quick-release locking mechanism. Engaged with senior engineers to refine the design through load-bearing tests, improving durability by 15% while maintaining portability and ease of use. 
  •  Collaborated with maintenance teams on a Lean Six Sigma (DMAIC) project, analysing failure data to redesign five high-wear components for easier replacement, contributing to a 15% reduction in machine downtime and a 10% decrease in production delays over six months. 
  •  Designed an LVDT-based pallet sorting system in SolidWorks, refining tolerance stack-ups to improve sorting precision and decrease cycle time by 10%. 
  •  Performed GD&T-driven inspections on 20+ critical components during first-article inspections, partnering with QA teams to identify and resolve 90% of fitment issues. Assisted in root cause analysis to refine tolerances, minimising rework delays by 15% across 4 projects.

Education

I hold a Master of Science in Engineering Management from Aston University, focusing on Project Management, Lean, and Agile Manufacturing. My bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from THEEM College of Engineering was highlighted by a project on developing a Thermal Screening UAV for remote inspections, which reduced inspection times by 25%. My master’s dissertation, "Driving into Tomorrow: Sustainability Challenges of Autonomous Vehicles," explored the environmental impacts of autonomous vehicle adoption, including a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). I also published research on thermal screening UAVs.
