We present a microscopic Hamiltonian framework to develop Maxwell demon like engine. Our model consists of a equilibrium thermal bath and a non-equilibrium bath; latter generated by driving with an external stationary, Gaussian noise. The engine we develop, can be considered as a device to extract work by modifying internal fluctuations. Our theoretical analysis focusses on finding the essential ingredients necessary for generating fluctuation induced transport under non-equilibrium condition. An important outcome of our model is that the net motion occurs when the non-linear bath is modulated by the external noise, creating the non-zero effective temperature even when the temperature of both the baths are same.
