Manufacturing Engineer

• Jan 2022 - Present

Manufacturing Supervisor

• May 2021 - Jan 2022

• Key leader responsible for cGMP operations and leading an exceptional team of 10 manufacturing associates.• Ensured scheduling of staff, materials, equipment, and documents are maintained to support throughput of the facility.• Provided leadership during troubleshooting of equipment, operations, and processes to assure superior levels of quality.• Monitored manufacturing processes and automation avoiding deviations and subsequent production delays.• Trained operators on aseptic technique and achieved 0 overdue CAPAs and reduced human error deviations by 100%.• Ensured deviations, CAPAs, change controls, process transfers and other business drivers are supported.• Performed root cause analysis, investigations, and slashed documentation errors by 95% by implementing corrective actions Show less

Associate Manufacturing Engineer

• Jul 2020 - May 2021

• Manufactured sterile single dose injectable drugs following ISO 5, ISO 7 and ISO 8 cleanroom classifications.• Operated complex machinery like the DARA filling machine, SYSTEC autoclave machine and NPM labelling machine.• Authored design control documents such as protocols and SOPs to ensure compliance with 21 CFR parts 210 and 211.• Validated manufacturing equipment in a cGMP environment with IQ, OQ and PQ quality assurance protocols.• Qualified and sustained an in-line inspection module for defect detection in filled vials and reduced labelling rejects by 19%.

Graduate Services Assistant

• Aug 2019 - Jul 2020

• Led the project ‘3D printed piping for corrosive and low-pressure environments: Towards reducing cost & lead time of repairs.’ • Designed, modelled and validated (ANSYS) piping structures of additively manufactured Stainless Steel 316L pipe prototypes. • Improved existing designs, welded AM SS316L samples to wrought SS 316L samples using AWS D1.6 welding code. • Defined test plans, conducted tensile tests of welded samples and found a 4.63% rise in ultimate tensile strength when compared to control group. • Created pressure testing setup in accordance with ASME B31.3 standard for non-destructive hydrostatic pressure tests. • Conducted high pressure leak tests and rated 3D printed pipes for 725 psi which is 20.83% more than that of wrought pipes. • Performed Chronoamperometry, noted 1.42% higher mass loss in wrought SS and AM samples were more corrosion resistant.

Engineer Intern

• Jan 2018 - May 2018

• Developed, reviewed and modified technical drawings with ANSI 14.5Y-2009 GD&T standards using SOLIDWORKS. • Analysed designs using design for manufacturing (DFM), design for assembly, safety, ergonomics and cost analysis guidelines. • Generated and modified Bill of Materials (BOM) for the fabrication of various fixture sub-assemblies and final assemblies. • Designed and manufactured positioning and measurement fixtures that can sustain required compressive forces. • Executed root cause analysis by carrying out CAPA to detect and rectify quality defects thereby decreasing defects by 7.6%. • Reduced job rejection rate to 0% by modifying clamping fixture design in CNC machining centre.
