Who I Am

Final-year Mechanical Engineering student with 2.5+ years of hands-on experience across Tier-1 automotive manufacturing — spanning CNC precision machining, quality engineering, and production planning within the Motherson Group ecosystem.

I'm passionate about where manufacturing meets the future — connected vehicles, semiconductor supply chains, and intelligent mobility. Certified by Qualcomm in C-V2X, TSMC in semiconductor fundamentals, and Formula 1 in high-performance leadership.

Currently learning CATIA V5 to complement my shop-floor and operations background with design capability. Seeking core engineering roles with top-tier OEMs or Tier-1 suppliers.
