What I'm looking for

I'm looking to apply my civil engineering and construction background to AI training, LLM evaluation, technical content review, and data-informed engineering analysis.

I've led civil engineering and construction delivery at Monteplan Engenharia, overseeing residential projects from technical reviews and procurement through quality control, scheduling, and cost management.

On an 8,452 m², 80-unit building, I developed a foundation methodology that cut execution time by 30% and overall costs by 12%. I also reduced another project budget by 15% and shortened its timeline by six months.

I'm now pursuing an M.S. in Data Analytics and applying Generative AI, technical evaluation, and rubric-based assessment to engineering workflows. My background includes drawings, specifications, cost control, BIM, QA/QC, and construction planning across residential, commercial, and industrial work.
