Muhammad Abid,
Here are my suggestions for optimizing your profile:
1) Remove the first line in your overview/summary: "Hello and welcome to my profile!" Here's why: when clients search for freelancers, only the first 200-225 characters of your summary are shown. This means you have very little space (approximately two short sentences) to get their attention. You want clients to see their goals (your services and results) in this small space--not greetings.
2) Add a short job description to the Mechanical Design Engineer job in your employment history, but add either "Freelancer" or "Self-Employed" -- unless you are an employee of Upwork. A job description is especially important when the job is highly relevant to the services you provide on Upwork. Upwork uses keywords in job titles and descriptions to match you with relevant jobs.
Everything else looks good.
