Rohit Radhakrishnan

Desired Job Role: Formula One, Mechanical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, CFD, Race Engineer / Pit Crew

Experience: Throughout my career, I’ve developed strong expertise in design engineering and numerical simulations. As a Design and Simulation Test Engineer with XLR8 Racing at TKM College of Engineering, I reduced vehicle weight by 20% for SAE India’s National Baja competition, improving handling and securing a top-5 finish out of 100+ teams. I also optimised a high-performance suspension system using ANSYS Multibody Dynamics and improved aerodynamics with ANSYS Fluent, reducing drag by 12% and enhancing fuel efficiency. Leading a team of 10 engineers, I ensured early project completion through effective resource and timeline management.

During my internship at the University of Alberta (MITACS), I conducted CFD simulations of geothermal reservoirs using CMG STARS, achieving a 20% increase in energy extraction efficiency and reducing operational costs by 10%. My optimisations in well placement and pump configurations improved reservoir thermal efficiency by 18%. I also presented my findings to both academic and industry stakeholders, influencing future project designs.

These experiences have honed my technical, analytical, and leadership skills, enabling me to drive innovation and deliver optimised engineering solutions.
