What I'm looking for

I'm looking to contribute cost, change-management, CSA, MEPF, and BIM coordination experience on complex hyperscale data centre, commercial, or infrastructure programmes, while continuing to lead teams and improve estimating quality.

I'm managing cost and change coordination for hyperscale data centre programmes at VConstruct, a DPR Construction subsidiary. I maintain change logs, prepare cost-impact summaries, and consolidate RFI, submittal, and drawing/model review data for project teams.

Previously at Attentive AI, I led a 12-member estimation team delivering 600+ annual quantity takeoffs across CSA, structural steel, and multi-trade scopes for major US general contractors. My team achieved 98% accuracy, while QA checklists and training modules improved estimation speed by 15% and reduced revision cycles.

At Advance Estimating, I prepared North American pre-contract estimates and bid proposals for residential and commercial projects, covering concrete, painting, flooring, lumber, truss, exterior finishes, and door hardware.

Across India, the US, Canada, and Australia, I bring civil engineering and structural engineering foundations to detailed estimating, cost control, MEPF coordination, document review, and value-focused project delivery. I'm Procore Certified and work with CostX, PlanSwift, Bluebeam Revu, Revit, AutoCAD, BIM 5D, and Excel.
