Experience

• Technical Lead QuEST Global Engineering Services Pvt. Ltd · Full-time Jul 2012 – Aug 2026 14 yrs 1 mos Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India Heavy Equipment Engineering (Caterpillar / Quest Global)
  • Weldment-to-Casting Conversion: Redesigned a complex 62-component steel weldment into a highly efficient 3-piece casting system for the Caterpillar 792 truck front axle. Formulated and applied a completely new GD&T schema from scratch based on strict Form, Fit, and Function (FFF) requirements, while aligning all geometric tolerances directly with actual foundry, tooling, and machining practices.
  o Impact: Reduced overall assembly weight from 5.5T to 4.5T and delivered a massive 42% cost savings alongside seamless shop-floor execution.
  • Legacy Digitization & Design Intent Migration: Led the migration and digitization of complex manual block-cylinder engineering prints into robust Creo parametric models.
  • Advanced GD&T Application: Formulated and applied comprehensive GD&T schemas from scratch based on strict Form, Fit, and Function (FFF) requirements, eliminating historical drawing ambiguities.
  • Manufacturing Realignment: Aligned all dimensional tolerances directly with actual foundry, tooling, and machining capabilities to minimize production deviation.
  o Impact: Elevated engineering design quality and manufacturing-aligned data reliability by 15%.
