As an Engineering Intern at SFL TVS in India, I gained valuable hands-on experience in managing warehouse inventory using FIFO and Kanban systems, optimizing stock levels to enhance efficiency. I was responsible for conducting Pre-Delivery Inspections (PDI) and maintaining Quality Management System (QMS) records, ensuring adherence to the highest standards of quality. My role also involved developing training materials and conducting workshops for new employees on lean practices, promoting a culture of continuous improvement and operational excellence within the organization.During my second month of internship, I honed my skills in Kanban, FIFO, and PDI, applying these methodologies to streamline warehouse operations and improve inventory management. By focusing on lean practices, I contributed to the overall efficiency and productivity of the team. My proactive approach to training and process optimization demonstrated my commitment to fostering a well-informed and skilled workforce, ultimately supporting the company's goals for quality and efficiency.

As a Mechanical Intern at Ashok Leyland in India from February 2021 to March 2021, I gained valuable hands-on experience and developed key skills integral to the automotive manufacturing industry. During my internship, I successfully devised a method to increase the capacity of EcoMet Vehicles at Ennore Chassis Assembly. Additionally, I identified and addressed issues such as the connecting rod pin breakage due to a loosened clamping nut in the Gear Box machining shop, resulting in significant reductions in repair and maintenance costs. These experiences honed my problem-solving abilities and deepened my understanding of operational efficiency within production environments.Moreover, my internship at Ashok Leyland provided me with comprehensive knowledge and practical exposure to essential tools and methodologies, including Control Plan implementation, NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness) analysis, 8D problem-solving, 5 Whys technique, product design principles, and reliability management practices. These skills not only complemented my academic background but also equipped me with the practical insights necessary to contribute effectively to complex engineering projects and manufacturing processes.
