Welcome to my Upwork profile.
I am an Aerospace Engineer specializing in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), UAV systems, structural analysis, and advanced engineering simulations. In addition to working individually, I serve as the CEO of InPhoenix Private Limited, an engineering company focused on aerospace systems, UAV development, simulation-driven design, and multidisciplinary mechanical engineering solutions.
Through my individual expertise and the collective capability of our engineering team, we deliver complete, industry-grade solutions — from concept development to validated engineering outputs.
Our strength lies in combining deep technical knowledge with practical implementation experience.

CFD & Aerodynamic Analysis
Computational Fluid Dynamics is a core competency. With a Master’s degree in Aerospace Engineering and years of applied industry experience, I have led and executed complex aerodynamic and thermal simulations across aerospace and mechanical systems.
We handle:
• External aerodynamics (UAVs, aircraft, automotive bodies)
• Internal flow systems (ducts, propulsion, cooling systems)
• Turbulence modeling and performance optimization
• Heat transfer and multiphase flow problems
Tools: ANSYS Fluent, ANSYS CFX, STAR-CCM+, COMSOL, OpenFOAM
––––––––––––––––––
UAV Design & Drone Engineering
UAV development is one of our primary domains. We have designed and developed multiple UAV platforms including VTOLs, fixed-wing aircraft, multirotors, long-endurance UAVs, FPV systems, and specialized mission platforms.
Our approach covers:
• Conceptual sizing and configuration development
• Aerodynamic optimization
• Structural validation
• Propulsion integration
• Flight performance analysis
• Autonomy and control system integration
Software ecosystem: SolidWorks, CATIA V5/V6, Advanced Aircraft Analysis (AAA), X-Plane, Fusion 360, Blender, ROS, Gazebo, ArduPilot, FlightGear, Betaflight
We integrate AI and machine learning where required to enhance autonomy, navigation, and mission intelligence.

Structural Analysis & FEA
We perform detailed structural validation and optimization using both analytical and numerical approaches. Our experience includes composite airframes, metallic structures, mechanical assemblies, and load-critical aerospace components.
Capabilities:
• Static and dynamic structural analysis
• Load case development
• Buckling and fatigue assessment
• Lightweight optimization
• Failure prediction
Tools: ANSYS, ABAQUS, SolidWorks Simulation, NX Nastran
––––––––––––––––––
AI & Engineering Automation
With strong foundations in Python and MATLAB, we develop intelligent engineering workflows, predictive models, and optimization frameworks that enhance system performance and decision-making.
Applications include:
• UAV autonomy and guidance logic
• Sensitivity analysis and model optimization
• Data-driven performance enhancement
• Simulation automation
––––––––––––––––––
Mechanical Engineering & Product Development
Beyond aerospace, we handle mechanical product design, CAD modeling, CFD/FEA validation of components, and engineering analysis for industrial applications.
Our work is structured, data-driven, and aligned with real-world manufacturing constraints.
