Getting on the other side of education! Assisting Professor Robert Bordley to profess ISD 520 - Introduction to Systems Engineering in the Fall semester of 2022. In this capacity, I will be helping students gain clarity regarding the fundamentals of Systems Engineering, evaluating their work, and providing feedback to help develop the next batch of Systems Engineering-aware engineers!

• Developed BMS software algorithm for battery state estimation metrics to operate on BMS AUTOSAR application layer• Conducted requirement elicitation sessions with stakeholders to accurately capture BMS customer and business requirements• Translated customer requirements to functional requirements to be designed for in the software algorithm• Performed software training on MATLAB- Simulink using open-sourced data and verification simulations using real-world data to test for system performance in operational conditions• Evaluated state estimation system architecture alternatives to select the best option to meet performance needs under project constraints• Improved organization product portfolio by introducing the BMS state estimation algorithm leading to a possible increase in revenue

• Established technical specifications from Voice of Customer for the startup's upcoming Electric Scooter range• Spearheaded the development of commercial vehicle fleet data metrics & visualization dashboards to increase customer business revenue• Documented Software Requirements Sheet (SRS) for Fleet Dashboard to bring clarity to required product engineering tasks• Conducted validation programs using FMEA and P-Diagrams for the fleet management dashboard which reduced product development time and potential failure risks• Collected real-world battery health data, while delivering food as a delivery executive for a day, for modeling the propulsion controller and battery management system (BMS) to operate robustly in target operating conditions

Six month internship at RBIN : Project House - Electrification (PJ-EL) focussing on electrification of mobility services (Fleets and Cargo Vehicles)- Extensive benchmarking carried out to understand industry requirements from EV Fleets and Cargo Vehicles- Responsible for steering subsystem and full vehicle integration - Worked with cross functional teams to develop a robust chassis capable of EV drivetrain - Gained skills beyond mechanical design in fields of Product development, Battery Technology, and Systems Engineering

Training in the domain of adaptation of conventional commercial vehicles into electric vehicles. Developed unique solutions for electrification for conventional vehicles existing in the fleet. Extensive benchmarking and market analysis checking the viability of Electric Commercial Vehicles in India

President of a Student-run organisation founded to make education in collegiate level not just about the course one comes for, but an overall knowledge growth, from other fields too! The Organisation comprises of 115 students, which organises notable talks (TEDxManipal A Fireside Chat )

Member of the department: Public Relations and Content

-Successfully achieved license to host TEDxManipal in 2019-Lead the conceptualization and development of the event till execution-Oversaw operations of 9 sub-committees: Curation, Executive Production, Sponsorships and budgets management, Event and Merchandise Design, Communications, Editorial and Marketing Director, Website Development, Video Production, Volunteers-Managed and coordinated dedicated efforts of 110+ volunteers to host the third iteration of TEDx in Manipal*All efforts were made to make this event a “Zero Waste Event” with the majority of the waste going for recycling and all merchandise developed to be long-lasting and carbon easy.
