Extended Bio

Mr. Prashant More has spent over two decades at the heart of mechanical design and product development — working across industries, companies, and roles to build the systems and products that define modern manufacturing. He is a mechanical engineering graduate and the founder of PTS (Paramtechsoft), a venture dedicated to advancing parametric design and CAD expertise.His 21+ years of experience span the entire product development lifecycle — from initial concept and CAD modeling to product lifecycle management and research-driven innovation. He has worked in three major industry domains: Automobile, Consumer Durables, and Automation Products, gaining exposure to the design challenges and engineering cultures of each.What sets Prashant apart is the breadth of his experience. He has worked in small service industries, where resources are limited and every engineer wears multiple hats, and in large Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), where scale, process discipline, and cross-functional coordination define the engineering environment. This range has given him a rare perspective on how design engineering works at every level of the industrial ecosystem.His career trajectory reflects a steady progression of responsibility and technical depth. He began as a CAD Engineer, mastering the tools of digital design. He advanced to Senior Design Engineer, taking ownership of complex components and systems. He later served as Development Manager, leading teams and managing the engineering processes that turn designs into producible products. He brought this expertise to some of India's most respected engineering companies, including Tata Motors, Onward Technologies, and Patni Computer Systems (now part of iGATE).Today, as founder of PTS (Paramtechsoft), he continues to push the boundaries of what is possible with parametric design and CAD engineering. He is driven by a conviction that excellence in mechanical design is the foundation of industrial competitiveness, and that sharing knowledge is the best way to elevate the entire engineering community.As an author for ENTECH Magazine, Prashant writes for the CAD engineer looking to deepen their skills, the mechanical design student building their career, the product development professional navigating PLM challenges, and anyone committed to the craft of mechanical design.
