About

Electronics and Communication Engineer experienced in the Defense and Aviation sectors, specializing in the installation, commissioning, and maintenance of critical infrastructure. I have a proven track record of managing high-stakes projects, ensuring operational readiness, and delivering technical excellence in complex environments. My core expertise lies in deploying large-scale Surveillance Systems (Radars, CCTV, UVDS) and robust Data Center Infrastructure. During my tenure at Bharat Electronics Limited, I managed end-to-end network operations, including the configuration of Cisco L2/L3 switches, HPE Blade Servers, and SAN storage solutions. I possess deep technical proficiency in network administration, utilizing protocols and VLANs to maintain secure, high-availability ring topologies. Previously, I served as a Technical Assistant at the Airports Authority of India, providing critical support for CNS (Communication, Navigation, Surveillance) systems like DVOR and DME. My approach combines technical precision with strong vendor coordination and fault management skills, consistently achieving zero-downtime objectives for mission-critical operations. I am keen to leverage my background in technical program management and system operations to drive efficiency in challenging new projects. I welcome connections with professionals in engineering, technology operations, and infrastructure management.
