About
I have extensive experience in electric vehicle design and fabrication, having successfully converted a gasoline-powered auto rickshaw into an electric vehicle, where I utilized SolidWorks for designing and fabricating key components such as sheet metal motor mountings, battery enclosures, and motor driver compartments, as well as customizing axles to fit the new powertrain. Additionally, I led the design of an entire electric four-wheel cargo vehicle prototype, creating everything from the chassis to the suspension and brake systems. Alongside my automotive background, I also developed SolidWorks expertise in designing 3D models and 2D drawings for electrical components like switches and sockets, showcasing my diverse skills across both automotive and electrical design fields.

Experience
- Electric Vehicle Specialist – Senior Design Engineer Orel Corporation (Pvt) Ltd. · Full-time Aug 2022 – Mar 2023 7 mos undefined, Sri Lanka I leveraged my SolidWorks and CAD design expertise to successfully convert a gasoline-powered auto rickshaw into an electric vehicle, where I designed and modeled critical components such as motor mounting brackets, the battery enclosure, and motor driver compartment, while also customizing axles to fit the new powertrain system. Additionally, I applied advanced CAD techniques to design and fabricate an entire electric four-wheel cargo vehicle prototype, including the chassis, body, suspension, and brake systems. Throughout the project, I utilized in-house sheet metal facilities to design and fabricate the body panels in a cost-effective manner, showcasing my ability to deliver complete vehicle design solutions using SolidWorks.
- Automation Design Engineer Taprobane Coconut · Full-time Oct 2019 – Dec 2021 2 yrs 2 mos undefined, Sri Lanka As an Automation Design Engineer at Taprobane Coconut, I utilized CAD design and fabrication skills to develop a coconut chip cutting machine. This machine was designed to precisely cut coconut meat into 0.5mm thick chips, enhancing the efficiency and consistency of production. From concept to fabrication, I handled the entire process, showcasing my ability to translate design concepts into functional automated solutions for small-scale manufacturing.
