ABOUT WASEEM AKHTAR
Drawing upon a robust foundation in design and development, complemented by a breadth of diverse experiences and a dynamic personality, I am enthusiastic about introducing myself on this platform. I have cultivated a wealth of expertise through engagement in a wide spectrum of projects. This has equipped me with the agility to swiftly assimilate new challenges and collaborate seamlessly within cross-functional teams. My professional journey reflects a commitment to versatility and excellence, underscored by a proactive approach to problem-solving and a steadfast dedication to delivering impactful results. As a Mechanical Design Engineer at Kendrion Automotive GmbH, I specialize in conceptualizing, designing, and developing advanced acoustic actuators and AVAS for electric vehicles. My responsibilities encompass meticulous material selection, precise design of plastic components, proficiency in prototyping, adeptness in injection molding processes, and comprehensive understanding of assembly procedures for series production. I excel in selecting appropriate joining technologies for seamless integration of components and navigating complex mechanical and electronic interfaces crucial for product functionality. Additionally, I engineer solutions to withstand high-temperature differentials, mechanical shocks, vibrations, and corrosive environments, ensuring optimal performance and longevity. Within Kendrion NV I learned to design loudspeaker systems in automotive interiors and exteriors to generate premium sound quality. During my short tenure at VVG Fastening Technology, I specialized in designing gearboxes for cordless blind rivet and blind rivet nut devices, focusing on meticulous material selection, heat treatment methods, and integration of BLDC motors with electronic PCBA and batteries. My academic journey across Pakistan, Thailand, and Germany provided me with diverse experiences, including internships in automotive design. Notably, at TGGS in Bangkok, I worked on the development of a suspension system for a 2-wheel electric vehicle, and at RWTH Aachen\'s Institute for Machine Elements and System Development, I collaborated on the design of a horizontal milling machine. These experiences culminated in a master\'s thesis focused on noise and vibration reduction in powertrain housings, underscoring my reliability, teamwork, and problem-solving abilities. In addition to my technical proficiency, I have actively engaged in various volunteer activities, highlighting my robust social competencies.
