Hello! I’m Aravind Nahendran, a mechanical engineer with a strong knack for turning concepts into manufacturable solutions. I enjoy hands-on design work, cross-functional collaboration, and applying lean principles to improve product quality and production efficiency. I’m motivated by solving real-world engineering challenges and bringing innovative ideas to life through careful planning, robust CAD models, and practical prototyping. I recently completed my Master of Engineering in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Windsor (class of 2024) and hold a BE in Mechanical Engineering from Anna University. My focus areas include design-for-manufacturing, product development, and validated engineering through FMEA, DVP, and PLM workflows. Outside of work, I like exploring new materials and technologies, as well as refining my skills via projects like in-wheel suspension design and related patent work.…Hello!
