About Hariharan R

Blending mechanical engineering expertise with a strong focus on operations and supply chain management, I bring a data-driven approach to process optimization and decision-making. Currently working as a Management Trainee at Saint-Gobain Abrasives, I apply analytical tools and lean methodologies to enhance efficiency across manufacturing and logistics functions.My MBA journey at NIT Trichy deepened my understanding of operational strategy, which I applied during my internship at AMMEGA Belting India. There, I led a warehouse optimization project that improved departmental productivity by 36% and developed Excel-based automation tools that streamlined workflows in finance and customer service.With hands-on experience in engineering design, predictive modeling, and data visualization, I enjoy solving operational challenges using tools like Python, SQL, Excel, Power BI, and Minitab. I’ve also conducted academic research on discriminant analysis for improved business segmentation and classification.Passionate about continuous improvement, I thrive in environments that value cross-functional collaboration and data-backed transformation. Always open to connecting with professionals in operations, analytics, and supply chain innovation.
