• This is a unique opportunity where I am in collaboration with a Texas A&M Law School Prof. Srividhya Ragavan in an analysis of patents and data exclusivity of drugs in the United States and the impact it has on access.
• Spearheaded a graduate team on a project to aggregate data on patents and data exclusivity for around 300 drugs
• Developed proper methods to encode data and flag any drop in price by 20% or $20- whichever is lowest
• Used R and Excel to understand underlying trends in the prices of the drugs after significant events

Hutto, Texas, US

• Designed the Value Stream Map for the ASIS(current) to find the Non-Value Adding activities along with IDEF0 and IDEF3 models
• Designed a TOBE Value Stream Map showing the future state by eliminating wastes and reducing the lead time from 21 days to 10 days
• Created SOPs for the kitting process which was made lean by adopting a U-cell design so as to introduce flow and get it close to the planned cycle time
• Implemented a system to effectively use existing storage options like VLM to reduce travel time, floor space and $50,000 in carrying costs
• Performed an Analysis of Alternatives (AoA) along with a Cost-Benefit Analysis to choose between the various improvement plans we had come up with

Delhi, New Delhi, IN

• At Aeronautical Development Establishment
• Analyzed LRUs with 3 different fin arrays for heat dissipation through simulation in FloEFD
• Designed a rectangular fin array for controlled heat dissipation through forced convection and increased heat transfer co-efficient by 20%
• Evaluated 180 fin array designs to identify what facilitates maximum heat dissipation and reduces thermal resistance by 10-17% across designs

lehatch.comHeaded Marketing Strategy and Business Development for Hatch during the nascent stages as a platform for artists to network and collaborate.

• Assisted Sr. Engineer in the design, manufacturing and supply chain of an elevator, from fabrication of a panel to installation on site
• Analyzed the technical practices of the plant through Gemba walks along with the Industrial Engineer to develop Kaizen Blitz events
• Employed the FMEA process for safe lift operation and along with decided the RPN for several modes of failure

Chennai, Tamil Nadu, IN

• Worked with pre-existing push-type assembly line for made to order purchasing and precision processes amounting to 85% of total orders
• Contributed to the pre-production quality inspection processes carried out for around 3000 small parts like nuts, bolts, rivets, etc. daily
• Suggested an implementation of pull-type system with lean thinking and workstation 5S to improve the movement of resources and reduce cycle time by 40%
