Great engineering is proven in the field,
where it matters most.
I am a Mechanical Design Engineer with 4+ years of experience working on design, analysis, and system development across robotics, industrial systems, and safety-critical applications in oil & gas, sanitation, defence, and medical sectors.
My work covers the full product development cycle — from feasibility and concept development to detailed CAD design, engineering analysis, prototyping, testing, and field validation. I have been involved in system-level engineering, including hydraulic systems, structural optimisation, and electro-mechanical integration for real-world conditions.
I enjoy building systems that actually work in the field. My experience includes hydraulic system design, component selection, and working in hazardous environments with considerations like ignition risk and ATEX/IECEx alignment.
I have worked with cross-functional teams across design, fabrication, testing, and manufacturing, contributing to projects from early R&D stages through to deployment, with a focus on reliability, safety, and practical performance.
I primarily work with CAD tools such as SolidWorks and AutoCAD for 3D modelling and manufacturing drawings, and use ANSYS Workbench for structural analysis and validation. I also hold a Lean Six Sigma Black Belt, which I use for structured problem solving and continuous improvement.

Genrobotics · Robotics & Industrial Systems
Led R&D delivery of DRACO (robotic tank cleaning system) and G-Mammoth (suction-cum-jetting system), owning system-level mechanical architecture across hydraulics, structures, and materials to improve reliability, durability, and lifecycle performance.
Coordinated cross-functional teams of 10–15 engineers across engineering, procurement, and manufacturing. Defined validation plans, test protocols, and acceptance criteria, including safety-critical evaluation and audit readiness.Drove design improvements through RCA, Lean, and value engineering — achieving zero major audit non-conformities and 96% on-time delivery.
Genrobotics · Robotics & Industrial Systems
Led end-to-end mechanical design and prototyping of DRACO, improving sludge extraction and buoyancy performance by 30%. Designed and deployed test rigs, cutting validation cost by 20% and cycle time by 25%.
Conducted linear and non-linear FEA studies in ANSYS Workbench across systems such as Genbot, Wilboar, and G-Gaiter. Performed design calculations, tolerance analysis, and material selection. Resolved multiple design-to-production issues in coordination with manufacturing teams.
Genrobotics · Robotics & Industrial Systems
Designed mechanical subsystems for Bandicoot, Wilboar, G-Gaiter, and Mobility+, including 3D modelling, assemblies, and manufacturing drawings using SolidWorks and AutoCAD. Prepared and managed BOMs for manufacturing, procurement, and quality.
Conducted feasibility studies and structural analysis to improve durability and reduce cost. Supported prototype builds and field trials, incorporating test feedback into iterative design improvements.

WordMy academic journey progressed from strong mechanical fundamentals to system-level design, and further into structured, data-driven problem solving and process improvement.
System Design · Mechatronics · FEA · Product Development
I completed my Master of Design (M.Des) in Mechanical Systems from IIITDM Kancheepuram, a programme focused on hands-on product engineering and system-level design.
The coursework combined mechanical design with mechatronics, advanced manufacturing, and simulation-driven engineering. I worked on product development, mechatronic systems, and FEA, with a strong emphasis on taking concepts from idea to working systems.
This phase helped me move from component-level thinking to system-level design, understanding how different elements integrate in real engineering applications.
Core Mechanics · Manufacturing · Fluid Systems · Engineering Fundamentals
I completed my B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering from Government Engineering College, Thrissur, building a strong foundation in thermodynamics, mechanics, fluid systems, machine design, and manufacturing.
I was also exposed to operations, supply chain, and management basics, helping me understand how engineering decisions connect to production, cost, and real-world delivery.
Most of my learning came through labs, workshops, and projects, shaping a practical, hands-on approach to engineering.
DMAIC · Root Cause Analysis · Process Improvement · Data-Driven Decisions
I completed Lean Six Sigma Black Belt certification, where I learned to approach engineering and process problems in a structured, data-driven way.
The focus was on identifying root causes, improving processes, and enhancing efficiency and quality using frameworks like DMAIC and basic statistical analysis.
This added a strong problem-solving and continuous improvement perspective to my engineering approach.
