Assistant Civil/Structural Engineer
Nairobi
Summary
I am a passionate Civil Engineer with a keen interest in structural design, particularly in reinforced concrete and steel structures. I thrive on the fact that no two projects are ever the same — every new challenge gives me an opportunity to think differently and deliver practical solutions for my clients. My strength lies in both design and detailing, ensuring that structures are not only sound but also buildable. I am hardworking, straightforward, and solution-oriented, and I enjoy collaborating with teams to turn ideas into reality. I am currently seeking roles in project management, project engineer, or coordination, with a special focus on the steel sector.
