Dcm daewoo ( ran out of business as daewoo motors india ltd., gr. noida )
Mar 1996 - Jun 1998Senior engineerStarted Career with Daewoo Motors as PGET on Gemba, shop floors of 'Cielo' Car Assembly plant. Initially worked in Shifts for 'Materials and Production Control' department and an year later moved to 'Production Engineering Services' as Senior Engineer.Daewoo Motors was an Amazing Company that gave me good exposure of Automobile Industry and its ecosystem. We had state of the art plant. When I just joined the company, the company was producing 'Cielo' cars at the peak of its capacity running on shifts round the Clock. I had a chance to see decline in our sales after few months due to bad rumor's from our Competitors. After I left the company, I realized the truth that our Competitors are imposing their Product problems on ours, I saw with my naked eye one of their running Car Engine caught on fire on the outskirts of New Delhi. For sometime, our marketing yard accumulated lots of Cars that we had to put a 'Business Innovation' team to remove dust regularly before sending them off to our Dealers and encourage every Employee to market our products. Our Dealers gave huge discounts to our Customers ( heard some offered buy 1, get 1 free ) and we were offering Cars for Vendor payments. Had an Opportunity to visit Seoul amidst Asean Economic Crisis and realized I was on a Sinking Ship. An year before I joined the company, it was DCM Toyota producing Dyna, LCVs. The company inherited 'DCM Toyota' Culture and Koreans too reinforced the same Management principles (Lean Thinking, 5S, Kaizen, Kanban, Morning Radio Exercises, etc.). My thinking too had more aligned with the Company Culture after having read then 'The Machine that Changed the World'. We use to make continuous incremental User Innovations too. We had one regular 'Parivarthan' program to change our Mindsets. The program is for all to think and work alike, shed egos and do even menial tasks. Show less

I did my Interview pretty well after having practiced day and night Client-Server technologies after leaving Daewoo Motors and they said that they are gonna send me straight away to their U.S. operations 'Oakie World Inc.' in Oklahoma for some Microsoft assignments. I felt, I was caught by the Joke then that whosoever spelt the word JAVA correctly are sent to U.S to realize their American Dreams. They told to submit our documents for filing H1B visa and I delayed a bit for I could not furnish my Original B. Tech Degree (OD) certificate ( I did not get time to collect it from my University and managed earlier my M.E. admission, Passport and Daewoo offer through 'Provisional Certificate').

We had few days of overseas training on Ariba's 'Trading Dyanamics' and subsequently we explored all the products, executed psuedo implementations, gave Ariba certification exams and headed for on site assignment with a big global Bank@Chicago. After I came back from U.S. Ariba Buyer onsite assignment, had an Opportunity to work on few J2EE based software development and maintenance projects at Offshore for some of our Customers in Finance domain, go again for an Onsite J2EE based Product development assignment with SunMicro Systems, UK. On return to offshore on demise of my father, coordinated with onsite team for Change Request implementations of JdEdwards (Sales & Distribution) for one of our prestigious Customers.
