Nadia Macavilca

Civil and Geotechnical engineer
Lima

Summary

Civil engineer with demonstrated record on planning and development of geotechnical field works and design, as well as advising on risks associated with natural hazards in civil projects like, dams, levees, mining works and buildings.

Since February 2021, I have been working for the British-Finnish consortium Koulu to ensure the implementation of international standards and collaborative methodologies in the design documents of the Special Bicentennial Schools Project (PEIP-EB). My role involved early identification of geological hazards and complex site conditions, as well as promoting the knowledge transfer to the client.

Also, my extensive experience in the industry, coupled with my vocational training, allows me to understand and anticipate technical requirements and provide solutions efficiently with a project broad perspective.
