ABOUT HARISHITHA S

I am an Automobile Engineering undergraduate (CGPA 8.95) with strong academic and hands-on experience in Mechanical CAD Design and Engineering Analysis, focused on automotive applications. My core strengths lie in 3D CAD modeling, structural analysis, and simulation-driven design using SolidWorks, Fusion360, ANSYS, and Altair InspireThrough multiple industry internships, I have gained practical exposure to real-world engineering workflows. At Craftsman Automation Pvt. Ltd, I worked on fixture design, precision machining processes, and SPM component review, strengthening my understanding of manufacturability and production-oriented design. During my internship at HELLA India Automotive Pvt. Ltd, I studied headlamp photometric testing procedures and automotive quality standards. At MAHAT Labs, I completed a no-code prototyping capstone project involving data analysis, while at Mannadiar Cars, I performed vehicle evaluation, documentation processing, and basic engine-type identification.My project experience includes vehicle structure design for SAE TIFAN, development of a seatbelt and alcohol detection–based ignition interlock system, and a thermo-kinetic study on alternative fuels and oxidizers for airbag inflator performance. These projects strengthened my ability to apply engineering fundamentals to safety-critical and performance-driven systems.I also hold a minor specialization in Data Science, with exposure to Python-based data analysis and research applications, including an paper on IC vs EV vehicle data analysis.In addition to technical work, I served as the Media & Marketing Lead of the Automobile Engineering Association at KCT, where I manage technical event promotions and coordination, developing leadership and cross-functional communication skills.I am actively seeking internship and entry-level opportunities in mechanical design, CAD/CAE analysis, vehicle development, or automotive R&D, where I can contribute through structured design methodology, simulation-backed validation, and continuous technical growth
