• Showed leadership in building and maintenance of testing environment for the new Artemis API services in C# integration testing in VS NUnit test environment; to be consumed by end clients of ANSYS Discovery products.
• Researched & Mapped comprehensive testing coverage matrix based on real engineering benchmark cases, for numerous Data Transfer objects for AIM Meshing, Structural (Static, Linear & non-linear interfaces.
• Mentored junior colleague to develop builder functions & methods to bring efficiency to integration test addition.
• Delivered comprehensive testing, independently, for Meshing related enhancements for AIM releases 18.x, 19.x & 20.x.
• Developed Python code using XlsxWriter module to generate and save data sets required to analyze efficacy of new AIM Structural Mesh settings using wide sample of geometries.
• Helped ANSYS exceed targets in ‘Physics Aware Meshing’ features requested for 2019 R3 release, by efficiently coordinating manual & automated testing.

Canonsburg, PA

• Performed detailed product testing of Ansys Meshing products, actively involved in feature testing for Mesh algorithms & controls for Workbench, AIM & SpaceClaim platforms.
• Implemented end-to-end workflows of Meshing to downstream physics solutions, chiefly Structural, but also Fluids, Thermal.
• Led in creation of Regression test systems for SpaceClaim meshing product: Tetrahedral & HexaBlocking based methods).
• Created object-oriented Python code with XlsxWriter module, to organize test files data generated by the SpaceClaim regression ‘Farm’ and save it in a fully formatted Excel file.
• Used various available software debugging tools narrow down the root cause of issue uncovered in automated or manual testing.

• Master's Thesis: CFD Analysis of Aerodynamic Separation for sub-micron particles.
• Explored the application of aerodynamic separation using sonic nozzles, for the separation and collection of sub-micron and nano-particles.
• Simulated the formation of a supersonic under-expanded jet from sonic nozzles and particle trajectories, using OpenFOAM compressible flow coupled with discrete phase Lagrangian solver.
• Discovered optimum separation regime based on nozzle geometry and operating conditions.
