Mechanical Design Engineer Budigita, Pune, MH, India June 2018 - January 2020
Engineered intricate 3D models for automotive and industrial components, including pump housings and gear casings, using SolidWorks, ensuring compliance with ISO 9001:2015, IATF 16949:2016 and client specifications. Created detailed 2D technical drawings with GD&T based on ISO 1101, applying shrinkage allowances, draft angles, and machining tolerances to support CNC machining and manufacturing processes. Collaborated with foundry and manufacturing teams to optimize designs for casting compatibility, improving production efficiency by 12%. Conducted Finite Element Analysis (FEA) using ANSYS Workbench to validate component performance under stress and thermal conditions, reducing design iterations by 15%. Streamlined BOM creation process by implementing a centralized database, reducing errors by 15% and slashing BOM generation time by 20 hours per week, directly improving production efficiency. Designed jigs and fixtures following Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and Design for Assembly (DFA) principles, reducing assembly setup time by 10%. Partnered with QA teams to perform material testing and Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM) inspections, ensuring product quality and adherence to standards. Contributed to value engineering and cost reduction initiatives, optimizing designs and material selection to achieve a 10% cost savings.
