@cristhianblanco
Multidisciplinary project manager specializing in ITS, finance, and operations.
What I'm looking for
I am a multidisciplinary professional with over 14 years leading Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) projects, operations, and financial analysis. I combine an engineering foundation with applied business and finance expertise to optimize technical, financial, and organizational performance.
As a Senior Project Manager I designed and implemented ITS and toll collection systems, integrating technologies such as RFID tolling, solar power, and fiber optic communications while managing procurement and complex importation processes. I have a consistent record of delivering complex infrastructure and technology projects on time and within budget.
I have led cross-functional teams, streamlined workflows to reduce delays by over 20%, and built long-term institutional client relationships through clear communication and problem-solving. I also mentored finance interns and produced company valuations and pitch decks used for investment recommendations.
I hold B.S. degrees in Electrical Engineering and Applied Business Management, am bilingual in English and Spanish, and seek opportunities where I can apply technical leadership, financial insight, and operational excellence to deliver measurable results.
