About Tilak Dasgupta

SummaryAccomplished engineering leader with over 18 years of distinguished experience in Control & Instrumentation within large-scale thermal power plants, including supercritical and subcritical units. Renowned for delivering zero forced outages, enhancing operational reliability, and championing safety as a core value, while managing complex plant systems with precision and foresight. Expert in the design, optimization, and tuning of critical control loops across boiler-turbine-generator systems, with a proven ability to improve responsiveness, stability, and thermal efficiency. Spearheaded major initiatives in digital transformation, integrating Industry 4.0 technologies such as smart sensors, condition-based monitoring, data-driven diagnostics, and intelligent automation — aligning plant operations with the highest global benchmarks. A vocal advocate for cybersecurity control system architecture, I have implemented robust protection frameworks aligned with IEC 62443, ensuring operational continuity and risk resilience in increasingly connected environments. I have also led successful indigenization efforts, reducing dependency on OEMs, localizing critical spares and systems, and enhancing maintainability and long-term sustainability. Recognized for leading under pressure, mentoring multi-disciplinary teams, and cultivating a culture rooted in preventive maintenance, accountability, and continuous improvement. Adept at knowledge management, I haveinstitutionalized SOPs, technical repositories, and training ecosystems that empower teams and preserve critical operational wisdom. With a blend of technical depth, strategic insight, and a relentless pursuit of excellence, I nowseek to contribute to a world-class thermal power organization that values innovation, performance, and purposeful leadership.SKILLS• kingview,pcmtu Alstom epic software•Yokogawa centum VP/GE Mark VIE/ Invensys fox draw/fox view/aimat/historian,abb control builder,• Hands on Experience in Allen Bradley, Siemens and Telemacanique• Invensys IA series & ABB ac800m• Hands on Experience in UF system(post dm plant) and Hybrid Esp• Soot blowing system(SLC 500)• Familiar with SAMA diagrams,PFD diagrams,P & ID diagrams,SLD,hookup diagram• Knowledge in BYPASS/ATRS depth Knowledge in IMS,involvement in Energy management Capex\'s like Energy efficient Driers/Insitu• Analytical Instruments-Hot Extractive cems,Insitu Analyzers, Lab Instruments
