Professional Summary

Professional Summary Link to heading

Saurabh is a rare hybrid resource who brings together deep technical analysis capability and client-facing solution architecture. With experience in pipe stress analysis, pulsation/acoustics, surge/hydraulics, AIV/FIV screening, and FEA modelling, he understands how real industrial systems behave under dynamic, thermal, and flow-driven loads and more importantly, how to translate those complex behaviours into simulations that deliver defensible engineering recommendations. At Mechartés International FZC, he plays a central role in business–engineering integration. He supports engagement with consultants, EPCs, OEMs, operators and owners, helping them articulate problems precisely, converting technical needs into structured simulation scope, and then communicating results back in a way that drives confident design decisions. He advocates judicious use of simulation to de-risk design, uprate capability, and eliminate uncertainty early in the project lifecycle, especially for high-rise, industrial, and critical infrastructure assets.
