ABOUT PREET LATHIYA
I am an Industrial Engineer with a strong foundation in Mechanical Engineering, focused on improving manufacturing systems, production efficiency, and operational performance. Currently, I am pursuing my Master’s in Industrial Engineering at Arizona State University, where I am building expertise in production systems, supply chain management, and data-driven decision-making. My background combines hands-on shop-floor experience with analytical problem-solving to drive measurable improvements in manufacturing environments. At Avanti Manufacturing, I work directly within high-volume production operations, focusing on process optimization, downtime reduction, and workflow efficiency. I have contributed to improving operational performance by reducing downtime, minimizing disruptions, and enhancing process standardization. Previously, I have delivered measurable results in manufacturing environments, including improvements in cycle time, equipment uptime, defect reduction, and overall process efficiency through Lean principles and root-cause analysis. I am particularly interested in roles that involve manufacturing engineering, process improvement, operations, and supply chain optimization, where I can apply data-driven approaches to solve real-world industrial challenges.
