About

🌟 Welcome to My Professional Journey! 🚀 🌐 I’m Galav, a dedicated industrial engineering professional with over 3 years of experience. In my pivotal role as a senior engineer at Larsen & Toubro Special Steels and Heavy Forgings, I gained a holistic understanding of digital transformation technologies, data analysis, process automation tools, project management, and manufacturing process improvement methodologies. Currently, I am pursuing a master's in industrial engineering at Columbia University in the City of New York to gain a deeper understanding of optimization techniques, digital manufacturing, and artificial intelligence. During my tenure at Larsen & Toubro, I managed operational excellence and digitalization initiatives for India’s largest strategic forging unit, having $75M in FY25 revenue, delivering finished forgings to the nuclear, hydrocarbon, and power sectors. 🌍 Key achievements: ⭐ Cost Optimization: Reduced steel melting costs by 21.5% for major nuclear projects by integrating 1,000+ field devices for real-time KPI monitoring. ⭐ Operational Excellence: Boosted machine shop efficiency by 18% through 5S implementation and automated utilization tracking via Power BI. ⭐ Digital Transformation: Automated quality workflows that saved 400 man-hours per month and architected SQL-integrated systems for real-time cost visibility. 💡Key Areas of Expertise - Manufacturing Process Automation (Siemens S7 1200 PLC, WinCC Explorer, Industrial Data Bridge). - Lean Operations & Process Improvement (Lean, Time Study, Six Sigma, Kaizen, 5S, VSP, RCA). - Data Analysis (MS Power BI, MS SQL Server, Python, NumPy, Pandas, Matplotlib, scikit-learn, Keras). - Design (AutoCAD) - Project Management (MS Project, Jira, Agile Scrum Methodology). - Supply Chain Optimization. - Cost Reduction and Quality Control. - Green Manufacturing & Sustainability Initiatives 🌐 I use data-driven insights and mathematical modeling to optimize processes and enhance performance. As a results-oriented engineer and published researcher, I am committed to advancing the future of smart manufacturing, process improvement, and supply chain excellence. Let’s connect to build the next generation of efficient, tech-enabled industrial solutions!
