What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead civil infrastructure and project delivery roles where I can own budgets, unit price analysis, and scheduling, supervise multidisciplinary teams on-site, and manage equipment and procurement to deliver results on time.

I’m a Civil Engineer and Project Director with over 8 years of experience delivering port infrastructure and construction projects, including residential civil works, electrical and hydraulic networks, drainage systems, and structural paving. I focus on disciplined cost estimation and unit price analysis (APU), budget control, and project scheduling, while ensuring strong site supervision and compliance with technical specifications.

In my current role at RYFL Ingeniería S.A.S., I lead civil works and heavy equipment management at Contecar S.A., overseeing preventive and corrective maintenance, detailed estimates, unit price analyses, materials procurement, and subcontractor coordination. Earlier, I supervised multi-story residential towers and led project execution across low/medium voltage networks, telecommunications infrastructure, substations, and hospital chilled water systems—always with clear reporting, quality control of concrete/steel/pipes/aggregates, and reliable team leadership.
