Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolHrishikesh Pathak is a Senior Quality and Reliability Engineer with 11 years of mechanical engineering experience focused on consumer electronics and electromechanical systems. He has driven new product development from concept to production at companies including HARMAN, Meta, and Microsoft, bringing strengths in FEA, prototype design, validation testing, and robust failure analysis. His background spans aerospace-grade experimental methods from his MS research—automating environmental cycles and simulating moisture/thermal diffusion—to automotive sensor systems where he improved visibility performance by 85% through DOE and statistical process control. Equally comfortable in CAD, mold-flow, and LabVIEW/MATLAB automation, he pairs hands-on hardware design with data-driven validation and cross-functional program leadership. He also contributes to open-source reliability in backend systems, helping harden a widely used Redis client’s SSL cluster behavior and error handling. Based in Novi, Michigan, he’s pursuing roles that leverage his hybrid strengths in mechanical design, reliability engineering, and program management for consumer hardware.
