What I'm looking for

I’m looking for remote-friendly operations or project leadership in construction where I can run production, manage permits/contracts, and build KPI-driven SOPs that improve scheduling, budget control, and profitability for U.S. clients.

I’m a bilingual Operations & Project Manager with 4+ continuous years working directly for U.S.-based companies, bringing hands-on production management experience across construction and roofing. I’ve led projects remotely across U.S. time zones, including field operations support in New Orleans, LA and Bethesda, MD.

I coordinate field crews, subcontractors, and sales teams while managing permits, contracts, and client relationships from project kickoff through closeout. My focus is measurable performance—driving improvements in scheduling, budget control, and profitability while keeping stakeholders aligned and issues resolved quickly.

I’m known for translating real-world field operations into structured, data-driven systems—using KPIs and SOPs, plus QuickBooks financial tracking, to scale consistently across distributed teams. In day-to-day remote execution, I rely on tools like Proline, CompanyCam, ClickUp, Slack, and Microsoft Project, supported by AI-assisted workflows (Claude).

Across roles, I’ve strengthened contract and compliance oversight, including profit-margin audits and detailed financial monitoring, and I’ve helped maintain tight budget performance (including staying within 5% of the original budget in prior work). I bring OSHA safety training and a strong operations mindset rooted in building-code compliance, scheduling discipline (S-Curves, Baseline, and MS Project), and quality closeout through final inspections and documentation.
