@shivanginipandey
Sustainability and civil engineer focused on decarbonization, carbon accounting, and project delivery.
What I'm looking for
I am a sustainability and civil engineering professional with hands-on experience in carbon footprint analysis, Scope 2 and 3 decarbonization, and renewable energy projects. I hold an M.S. in Urban Sustainability from City College of New York and a B.Tech in Civil Engineering from VIT Vellore.
I have led and supported multidisciplinary projects—managing stakeholder engagement, performing site inspections, conducting life-cycle and waste reuse research using WARM and RIC, and proposing energy-saving lighting upgrades expected to reduce campus electricity consumption by at least 25%. I have also estimated multi-billion-dollar federally funded projects and negotiated dozens of contracts.
I bring strong analytical, communication, and leadership skills, proficiency with tools such as Power BI, Maximo, ProCore, AutoCAD, STAAD Pro, and advanced Excel, and a proven record in program management, teaching, and community-focused sustainability initiatives.
