My Experience

Technical Intern

June 2024 - July 2024

Yokohama Tires

  • Contributed to a machine learning initiative to optimize power plant operations, developing a predictive model that increased power efficiency by 10% and cut coal usage by 5%
  • Engineered features from real-time sensor data and operational logs to accurately model system behavior and improve predictive performance
  • Designed and deployed interactive Power BI dashboards to track key performance indicators (KPIs), enabling stakeholders to make data-driven decisions for operational adjustments
  • Collaborated with cross-functional engineering teams to translate business challenges into a data science framework, ensuring the project's alignment with large-scale industrial goals

Industrial Learning Experience

ONGC Rajahmundry
  • Evaluated the operational reliability of centrifugal pumps, applying knowledge of fluid dynamics and maintenance data to recommend a predictive failure-detection strategy
  • Studied the integration of upstream (drilling) and downstream (refining) units at the Tatipaka mini-refinery, focusing on process optimization and synergy
  • Observed process automation via the Yokogawa DCS and learned risk assessment through HAZOP reviews, focusing on Blowout Preventer (BOP) safety systems
  • Authored a technical summary of actionable strategies for production enhancement based on observations of daily operations and process control data
