What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead high-impact infrastructure and building projects where I can manage multidisciplinary teams, deliver safely within budget and schedule, and apply structural engineering, contract administration, and quality assurance in challenging operating environments.

I'm currently managing infrastructure projects in South Sudan with EthioJuba Construction Limited, leading multidisciplinary teams, budgets, schedules, procurement, contracts, quality assurance, and site safety.

Previously at Keen Consultants PLC, I oversaw a B+G+7 apartment building from foundation through finishing and a G+20 office building from mat foundation to completion. I coordinated consultants, contractors, clients, design revisions, payments, work orders, and change orders while maintaining approved designs, specifications, and project schedules.

Across construction, design, consulting, and independent contracting roles, I've delivered practical engineering solutions for high-rise and infrastructure work. My MSc in Structural Engineering supports my work in seismic engineering, structural analysis, FIDIC, ISO-aligned delivery, ETABS, SAP2000, AutoCAD, and Microsoft Project.
