As a Procurement Engineer at Jersey Manufacturing Company in Qatar, I leverage my 12+ years of engineering and supply chain management experience to optimize the inventory, logistics, and quality of the production process. I negotiate with global suppliers to secure the best cost, lead time, payment terms, and import/export conditions for the smooth and streamlined operation of the manufacturing and assembly units. My engineering journey began at my family's machine shop business in India, where I learned the hands-on skills of operating lathes and drilling machines, ensuring on-time deliveries, and managing a team of seven technicians. I have a Diploma in Automobile Engineering and proficiency in ERP and basic AutoCAD. I also speak English, Hindi, and Kannada, which helps me communicate effectively with multicultural teams and stakeholders. My passion is to drive cost-effectiveness, quality, and efficiency across operations, and to collaborate with forward-thinking and industry-leading partners. I am currently based in Qatar, but I am ready to relocate and explore new opportunities.
