Major in Material Science and Engineering at Nanyang Technological University specializing in Nanotechnology. I have work experience in the energy industry, stemming from my positions at VFlowTech as a product design engineer and Halliburton as an associate R&D Mechanical Engineer. These positions have exposed me to both renewable and non-renewable energy sources. I have very strong project management skills, as a project engineer in both companies. I was able to complete the goals set for my various projects on time. I have honed my interpersonal skills working with colleagues in India, the US, and Norway are some of the people I had the opportunity to work with on-site and online. I also did customer engagement with clients from Shell, ConocoPhillips, and Equinor. To understand their needs and concerns to better design our products for them. I always seek to learn more from my work and perfect my skills in my job. During my time in University, I continue my final year project with VFlowTech after my internship ended to expend my horizon in the field of energy storage.
Worked with UMC Singapore to manage and plan tools in the semiconductor fab and ensure the new tools are ready for operations. Worked with different tools, such as the CMP machine and chemical etch machine, needed for the fabrication of silicon wafers, understand the needs of the tools and expectations of the tool owner. Effectively use the space assigned to the tool, ensuring the user is able to perform their duty during operation. Worked with contractors to route the different utility lines, such as electrical cables, gas, and chemical pipe, to supply the individual tools. Ensure the tools are delivered to the tool owners in the expected standard within the allocated time, ready for production. One of my recent projects was to work with the Industrial Engineer in UMC, to look at the current plan layout of the new P3 plant to re-evaluate the space used by the current tools and forecast tools arriving at the plant in the following months. On top of these, we looked at the current tool position and its various tied-in utilities to ensure that the new tools are not obstructed in terms of tool positioning and utility routing.
There I assisted in the grinding process in the company. The calibration of Vernier Calipers and Micrometers generated a report for each individual device and also arrange all the devices into a master list. I also organized the inventory of the companies accordingly for ease of maintenance and retrieval. I also learn to use the laser engraving machine for identification purposes. Responsible for programming a system that keeps track of ring and plug gauges in the company when leaving or entering the quality control laboratory. Also programmed software for inventory control for Woo & Woo Precision Industry. Both using excel VBA that I learn during my time as an intern there
Part of the Packer discipline team. My main role was to validate/revalidate packers to the latest API 11D1 or TR2385 standard. I was tasked to understand the packer design, load paths, and pressure the packer was to see during the test. Design/redesign components to improve the performance of the packer and address any pre-existing design issues/flaws. Conduct design reviews with subject method experts and product manager on the design recommendation and concerns I have. Design the packer check layout there once all the designs have been approved. I was also tasked to design the test setup, by designing a new test fixture and understanding the limitations of the test facility, for the different tests to meet the various validation grades established in the project charter. Before the test, design a test layout, such as the configuration for assembly, disassembly, and the actual test itself, and the test procedure. I had to perform all the tasks and communicate with all the stakeholders to manage their needs and the timeline given to the project. I was allowed to work with different customers worldwide, such as ConocoPhillips, Equinor, Shell, etc. I was also allowed to work with colleagues from other product lines to complete the project assigned to me.
During my time in VFlowTech, I had the opportunity to make use of my CAD skills, to design and revise various CAD models and drawings to meet customers' demands. I had the opportunity to observe the production of a 5kW flow battery system from start to finish. I also designed a BCU for new flow battery systems.
