About Yash Patel

I am a Quality Control Chemist with over 5 years of experience in the oil & gas, petrochemical, and environmental testing sectors, currently working with SGS Saudi Arabia, a global leader in testing and certification. My expertise spans analytical chemistry, ISO/IEC 17025 compliance, and advanced instrumentation including GC, HPLC, FTIR, and UV-Vis.I specialize in method development, instrumentation troubleshooting, regulatory compliance, and laboratory quality assurance. Throughout my career, I’ve contributed to reducing testing turnaround time by over 25%, optimizing SOPs, and achieving zero non-conformities in ISO audits. My roles at Reliance Industries Ltd and Archit Organosys further shaped my technical acumen and reinforced my ability to align lab practices with industry standards.Certified in ISO/IEC 17025, Risk Management, and HSE protocols, I am also experienced in LIMS-based documentation, sample integrity assurance, and root cause analysis (RCA). I’m passionate about driving operational excellence, mentoring junior analysts, and ensuring safety and efficiency in every laboratory I serve.Now, I’m seeking opportunities where I can contribute to internationally regulated labs or refineries that value quality, compliance, and scientific rigor. Open to relocation across Australia, UK, or Schengen countries.
