Product Owner / Product Engineer — Micron Technology, Inc.
- Action: Led electrical & functional test strategy and material reviews for an automotive-grade MCP module. Project/Problem: High-volume production reliability and test coverage gaps. Result: Shipped 20M+ units with near-zero DPM and improved HVM yield.
- Action: Owned customer-return investigations and failure analyses (functional & physical). Project/Problem: Reduce field returns and analyze NVMe/UFS failures. Result: Identified root causes and implemented corrective actions that improved product reliability and customer satisfaction.
- Action: Implemented data-driven automation scripts (Python, C++, Perl, HTML) for data collection and visualization. Project/Problem: Manual data collection slowed analysis cycles. Result: Reduced data collection-to-analysis time by ~90%.
- Action: Led cross-functional improvement projects—Shift-Left testing, test-coverage improvements, and test-time reduction on ATE. Project/Problem: High assembly and test costs with long cycle times. Result: Reduced test time and operational cost while improving defect detection earlier in the flow.
- Action: Performed rigorous root-cause investigations using 8D, DFMEA, DOE and advanced FA techniques. Project/Problem: Complex, intermittent failures requiring multi-modal analysis. Result: Faster, more accurate failure resolution through structured FA workflows.
- Action: Ensured safe operation in ESD-prone clean room environments and maintained equipment qualification. Project/Problem: ESD risks and device sensitivity. Result: Maintained lab safety standards and consistent testing throughput.
Teaching Assistant — IIT Bombay
- Action: Designed tutorials and led review sessions for undergraduate courses. Project/Problem: Students struggling with core engineering concepts. Result: Improved comprehension and grades through targeted mentorship and timely feedback.
- Action: Managed grading and transitioned content for online teaching. Project/Problem: Shift to remote learning and fair evaluation. Result: Maintained assessment integrity and student engagement during remote semesters.
Intern Engineer — Applied Materials
- Action: Conducted technology landscape analysis and dissolution studies for a proprietary coating applied to pharma APIs. Project/Problem: Delayed-release formulation requiring new coating solutions. Result: Recommended and validated a coating approach; highest-rated intern with direct senior management feedback.
- Action: Performed HPLC dissolution testing and translated semiconductor coating techniques to pharma processes. Project/Problem: Demonstrate cross-domain application of semiconductor equipment tech. Result: Demonstrated feasibility and improved understanding of process-transference methods.
