Bachelor of Technology in Mechanical Engineering

Master of Science in Industrial Engineering

• Reduced warehouse inventory by creating the dispositions of energy parts such reworking, generating SCAR for supplier defect, scrap damaged parts, saved $20,000 of DCDC for PowerPack
• Conducted potting material containment trials for the potting process, which helped save $80,000 worth potting materials from containment, and performed a snap test on the agitated potting materials
• Updated Tesla Qualification Process on the supplier portal for the safety critical parts from the supplier in the form of FMEA, control plan, DFM, R&R gauge, measurement control for the quality team
• Developed Quality Key Point (QKP) for the quality inspection into controlled manufacturing instructions for the quality
technicians, decreasing the number of inspections on the energy lines
• Root cause analysis on defects for the rework process at the nonconforming material area, reducing the overall defects by 15%, to save the cost of the parts and utilize it back on the line
• Developed ISO 9001:2015 quality internal audit checklist for QMS elements and assisted in TUV audit
