  • Oversaw document control for a 25,000 sq. ft. Resident project, organized over 85 technical documents, ensuring up-to-date and accurate information was accessible to the project team.
  • Engaged in on-site discussions with supervisors and the rest of the team to understand how precast and PEB methods reduce project timelines while maintaining consistent quality and safety.
  • Performed quantity take-offs for 30+ material categories under supervision and contributed to precise budget estimations and resource planning.
  • Contributed to a 1% reduction of the projected $1.65 million budget, by identifying cost saving opportunities such as coordinating bulk purchasing of materials to secure discounts, minimizing subcontractor downtime through improved scheduling, and identifying design modifications that reduced material waste without compromising safety.
  • Coordinated with multiple teams including fabrication vendors and site supervisors to ensure smooth communication and timely execution of tasks.
  • Reduced material wastage by 9% through precise quantity surveying, material reconciliation and site level inventory management.
  • Proposed engineering optimizations such as reuse of shuttering and use of cost-effective alternative materials, resulting in a 1.2% reduction in overall project cost without compromising structural quality.
  • Collaborated with the Finance and Procurement Team to streamline the workflow and reduce approval turnaround by using integrated workflow, resulting in a reduction of time thereby increasing the savings.
  • Monitored subcontractor activities to ensure compliance with work orders, technical specifications, and safety protocols as per IS standards.
  • Prepared daily progress reports, updated project schedules, and supported weekly review meetings with project stakeholders.
  • Conducted quality assurance checks and ensured adherence to IS codes and local building regulations.

Construction Engineering Intern

CIDC (Construction Industry Development Council)
, India
09.2021 - 03.2022
  • Assisted site engineers in setting out layout lines and checking the alignment and leveling of precast elements during erection, ensuring correct placement and structural stability.
  • Supported quality control activities by measuring component dimensions, inspecting surface finishes, and reporting any deviations during on-site checks.
  • Worked with project teams to interpret structural and shop drawings, helping verify component positions and cross-check erection plans before installation.
  • Observed and documented casting processes at the yard, including mold setup, rebar fixing, concreting, and curing, to understand factory-level production standards.
  • Helped maintain site records by logging daily progress, noting delivery schedules, and assisting in tracking the movement of precast and steel elements from yard to site.
  • Shadowed crane operators and safety personnel to learn lifting procedures, helping ensure lifting zones were cleared, tag lines were secured, and operations followed protocols.
  • Assisted in post-installation work such as grouting, bolt tightening, and application of sealants under supervision, to understand how final structural connections are made.
  • Supported engineers during quality inspections, noting measurement checks and helping to compare installed elements against drawing specifications.
