Rahul Gupta

Supporting global mining operations with advanced controls optimization, APC troubleshooting, historian/AF modeling, and digitalization initiatives. Partnered with engineering and operations teams across multiple countries to improve constraint visibility, system reliability, and data-driven decision making. Developed diagnostic tools, AF templates, PoC models, Power BI dashboards, and technical documentation while serving as an escalation point for complex automation issues.

Led automation upgrades, PLC migrations, SCADA modernization efforts, robotics alignment fixes, and historian improvements across mill and utility systems. Built logic for critical equipment, optimized interlocks/sequencing, improved alarm strategies, and coordinated troubleshooting across operations, maintenance, and engineering teams. Delivered dashboards, data models, and documentation that improved visibility and reduced investigation time.

Designed and commissioned PLC logic, HMI workflows, SCADA mapping, and alarm enhancements for pumps, utilities, overflow systems, and dewatering processes. Led field troubleshooting for instrumentation, networks, communication paths, and historian gaps. Produced narratives, commissioning guides, interlock matrices, and updated P&IDs to support long-term maintainability.

Optimized membrane distillation systems, improving purity from 5% to 99.9%. Developed graphene membrane prototype with reduced cost and improved reliability. Performed system diagnostics, heat modeling, and experimental analysis.

Redesigned refinery treatment systems, improving turbidity (97%), OIW removal (99.43%), and reducing operating cost (58%). Led commissioning, instrumentation validation, and process redesign using DMAIC/8D methodologies. Created operator procedures, flow diagrams, and troubleshooting guides.

 Effectively analyzed the sales pattern and growth areas.  Increased net revenue by 300% in 7 months by gathering data, analyzing, and providing visualization for the stakeholders.  Gained 25% net profit margins by increasing the supply chain management and optimizing facility layout.
