Hi, I’m Aastha Jani. I enjoy turning ideas into practical, manufacturable mechanical designs. With hands-on CAD modeling and strong documentation, I support lighting and mechanical systems from concept through production. I collaborate across engineering, manufacturing, and cross-functional teams to resolve design and production issues, driving product quality and reliability. I’m proficient in SolidWorks and AutoCAD, GD&T, BOM management, and working in production-focused environments, and I thrive in fast-paced settings that demand clear communication and timely delivery.
