Pranav G. Email and Phone Number
I'm an experienced Manufacturing and Mechanical Design Engineer with a Ph.D. in Mechanical & Materials Engineering from Queen's University. I have a strong track record of improving manufacturing processes, enhancing product quality, and increasing efficiency and safety.At Ecco Manufacturing, I have significantly improved process throughput, reduced labour hours, and increased production throughput. As a Mechanical Design Engineer at Linear Transfer Automation, A Flodraulic Company in Barrie, I designed and developed advanced custom automation solutions for the Automotive and Aerospace industries, with budgets exceeding $2M.I have also developed working prototypes for generating through-thickness porosity gradients and cost-effective and time-efficient processes for manufacturing airplane fuselage support brackets. My skills include Lean Manufacturing, SolidWorks, ANSYS, Python, and MATLAB.When I'm not working, I enjoy playing Rugby and Bouldering.
