About Yadnesh Kadulkar

I am a self-motivated Mechanical Engineering student with strong analytical, communication, and people management skills. I am driven to identify and implement innovative opportunities in the industry, specifically through quantifying customer requirements, designing, developing, and testing new solutions in order to reduce lead times, project costs, and promote business growth. • My experience in small and start-up companies has enabled me to work across multiple departments, and develop the necessary skills to work in teams, interact with individuals from multi-domain backgrounds, and communicate effectively. • My experience as a Design Engineer has equipped me with technical knowledge of how to transform customer needs into product requirements and into a best-case-scenario product.•From the start I have always been passionate about sketching and 3D CAD of machines as a hobby, which later transformed into me pursuing mechanical engineering. I find joy in designing stuff whether it be a mechanical machine, a general consumer product, or a just wild concept. Being able to apply actual principles to transform an idea into an actual usable product using Design Engineering techniques, DFM, DFA and CAE is where all the fun is for me.
