Bio
Ryan L.
Sooraj is an exceptional engineer heading our organization's quality team and impacting our business growth by 2 folds during his time at Lin Engineering. His innate ability to solve complex customer, technical and operational problems (internal and external) allows him to gain trust across peer managers and cross-functional teams to implement structural improvements to the organization that his predecessors struggled with. With his positive attitude, dedication to excellence, and driven yet approachable spirit, he is a well-developed manager capable of implementing many key processes and sustaining them. All of these efforts lead to: a recertification AS9100 audit with a perfect score - zero non-conformances; implementation of processes that elevated customer satisfaction and improved product reliability and consistency; and support of several multi-million dollar contracts. Sooraj is not your typical quality profession that only looks at standards and processes, he dives deep into the operations, product technology, IT technology, and many other disciplines to achieve his goals and the company’s targets. He humbly operates at an entirely higher level than the rest of his colleagues, and we at Lin Engineering are the lucky ones to have spent the past several years working with him.

Sooraj brings a wonderful spirit of excellence and loyalty to his work. He is not afraid of hard work or putting in the time. I can attest to the fact that Sooraj has an amazing way of connecting with teams to keep them engaged and motivated. His sense of humor and personality draws people in yet his dedication builds trust which creates a great working relationship amongst the team. I have hired a lot of people over the last 15 years in Human Resources and I can honestly say that Sooraj is in my top 3 hires I have ever made! If you have the opportunity to hire Sooraj act quick because he is a rare gem and without a doubt will elevate your team immediately.
