R&D Mechatronics Engineer | Robotics Integration Specialist

R&D Mechatronics Engineer & Robotics Integration Specialist bridging the gap between mechanical design and software control. Leveraging 3+ years of industrial CAD/CAM experience alongside ROS 2 and C++ to develop autonomous systems and hardware-in-the-loop simulations for automotive R&D. Incoming M.Sc. candidate in Applied Mechanics and Mechatronics at STU Slovakia.

• Design Automation Leader: Reduced design and drafting times by 40% at SEDIN Technologies through automated parametric modeling workflows for custom conveyor systems and earthmoving attachments.
• Robotics Integration: Designed the mechanical structure, optimized load simulations, and led prototype fabrication for a Solar Panel Cleaning Robot deployed for Adani Green Energies during tenure at Min1 Automation.
• Performance Validation: Executed rigorous FEA simulations (ANSYS, Fusion 360) to validate the structural integrity of complex assemblies, minimizing physical prototyping iterations and ensuring manufacturing feasibility.

• Certified SolidWorks Professional (CSWP) – Dassault Systèmes
• Specialized Certifications: SolidWorks Sheet Metal, Weldments, and Drawing – Dassault Systèmes
• Currently Pursuing: Advanced surface modeling credentials (SolidWorks Professional Surface, Creo User Modeling Specialist) to align with European automotive R&D standards.
