About Naveen A N

With a Master’s degree in Microbiology, I specialize in Quality Control (QC), In-Process Quality Control (IPQC), and R&D microbiology, particularly in the dairy and egg industries. My expertise lies in food safety, microbial testing, product innovation, and regulatory compliance to ensure premium product quality. Currently, I work as a Microbiologist at Moomark, a dairy company focused on delivering high-quality milk, curd, paneer, and ghee. My role involves ensuring microbial safety, maintaining product consistency, overseeing quality control processes, and implementing improvements in food safety protocols. Previously, at Eggoz Nutrition, I led QC and IPQC operations, contributing to the development of long shelf-life egg products and innovative freeze-drying methods. I played a key role in maintaining regulatory compliance and enhancing quality performance. Beyond my corporate experience, I am also an entrepreneur and founder of Nutation Organics, a food processing startup focused on developing value-added products from natural ingredients. Through this venture, I have worked on innovative food preservation techniques and sustainable food solutions, blending scientific research with business acumen to create high-quality, market-ready products. Additionally, as a SIIP BIRAC Fellow at C-CAMP, I worked on food processing innovations and collaborated on biotechnological solutions aimed at improving food quality and sustainability. My research included isolation and molecular identification of microbes from water sources, contributing to advancements in environmental microbiology. I am passionate about food safety, quality assurance, and product innovation, leveraging my research insights, industry experience, and entrepreneurial mindset to drive excellence in food microbiology and technology. My goal is to contribute to a team dedicated to advancing food safety, compliance, and innovation.
