My role involves leading Factory Acceptance Tests and on-site commissioning for advanced electrical systems, while also developing KPIs and SOPs to enhance departmental performance. Previously, I worked as a Project Engineer at Supermec Private Limited, where I specialized in heat tracing and MCC panels, and as a Planner and Associate Engineer at ST Electronics Limited, where I honed my skills in procurement, cost optimization, and electrical design. My career is marked by a commitment to fostering effective communication, mentoring team members, and maintaining strong client relationships.
