Mechanical design engineer with extensive experience in vehicle integration, chassis systems, braking systems, and full product development lifecycle for electric vehicles, motorcycles, commercial vehicles, and two-wheelers. Strong background in converting system-level requirements into production-ready designs using structured PDP tools, GD&T, and validation processes. Adept at working across concept, prototype, and production phases, with hands-on expertise in supplier coordination, compliance, cost optimization, and design for manufacturability.
My Skills
🔹 Vehicle Integration & Chassis Design
- Led complete system and sub-system level vehicle design from concept to validation
- Expertise in chassis layout, skeleton modeling, and packaging for EVs and IC platforms
- Hands-on experience in vehicle conversion from IC to electric architectures
- Strong understanding of suspension systems, swing-arms, rear axle assemblies, and frames
- Performed ergonomic posture studies and vehicle-level COG calculations
🔹 Product Development & PDP Tools
- Well-versed in end-to-end Product Development Process (PDP) execution
- Applied DFA, DFM, DFS, DFMEA, APQP, and clearance checks for robust design
- Conducted PDR, CDR, and design maturity assessments aligned with PDP milestones
- Managed technical documentation using PLM/PDM tools including Windchill
- Supported multiple prototype build phases (C, D, V, PV, PB builds)
🔹 Manufacturing & Supplier Engineering
- Designed jigs and fixtures for frames, swing-arms, and production assemblies
- Developed casting, forging, machining, sheet metal, and plastic components
- Prepared detailed 2D drawings, large assemblies, BOMs, and part number coding
- Coordinated with suppliers for PPAP, tooling development, and feasibility reviews
- Drove cost reduction initiatives through material changes and process optimization
🔹 Brakes, Testing & Validation
- Experienced in brake aggregate design, brake force calculation, and braking distance analysis
- Designed rims as per automotive standards and compliance requirements
- Developed test beds for clutch force, spring force, and electric motor testing
- Supported compliance, validation, and production readiness activities
- Addressed field issues through IR analysis, change requests, and CCB approvals
🔹 CAD, GD&T & Engineering Leadership
- Advanced user of Creo, SolidWorks, and AutoCAD for complex assemblies and layouts
- Strong command over GD&T, tolerance stack-up, welding symbols, and manufacturing drawings
- Basic exposure to ANSYS for preliminary structural assessments
- Experience mentoring engineers, leading technical teams, and cross-functional collaboration
- Clear technical communication with stakeholders, suppliers, and project teams
With a deep commitment to learning, problem-solving, and driving innovative solutions, I'm dedicated to exploring emerging technologies and product innovation.
I am eager to bring my expertise to new challenges and contribute to cutting-edge projects in the every industry.
