Infrastructure Coordination Manager - Israel-based Employer - Nova Scotia, Canada (Remote)
(2025-01)
Built and led a new infrastructure coordination department managing multi-discipline civil projects through detailed design and tender, working remotely from Nova Scotia.
- Founded the department from zero - established workflows, documentation standards, and hired a two-person team, compressing department launch by ~30% vs. industry benchmarks
- Led BIM clash detection and resolution across complex multi-discipline projects in Civil 3D environments - estimated construction cost savings of 15–20% per project.
- Coordinated drainage, grading, and earthwork design across 5–10 concurrent projects to tender stage, consistently meeting submission milestones
- Prepared and reviewed technical specifications, design reports, and QA/QC documentation packages for client approval
Senior BIM Specialist & Element Library Manager - Infrastructure Engineering Firm - Tel Aviv, Israel (on-site / remote from Sept 2023)
(2021-01 - 2025-01)
Led BIM implementation for major public infrastructure programs including national roads and rail, embedding drainage and earthwork design into fully coordinated parametric models.
- Pioneered Israel's first comprehensive BIM element library for national road infrastructure (Netivei Yisrael standard), covering drainage components, earthwork subassemblies, and utility elements adopted as the firm-wide standard
- Automated quantity take-off workflows that generated BOQs and technical specs directly from models — reduced manual QTO time by 35–40% and eliminated a major source of human error, saving an estimated $80,000–$150,000 CAD per major project cycle
- Managed model federation, BEP implementation, cloud permissions, and CDE data flow across multi-discipline teams (roads, drainage, rail, water, sewer, electrical, telecom, landscape)
- Authored OIR, EIR, PIR, and SMP documentation packages for major public sector clients
- Model QA/QC: reviewed drainage models, cross-sections, and earthwork corridors for compliance with Netivei Yisrael and Netivei Ayalon standards before client submission
Drainage, Hydrology & Geometry Designer - Hason Yerushalmi - Tel Aviv, Israel
(2021-01 - 2022-12)
- Produced detailed drainage and hydrological designs for urban and transportation infrastructure projects, including channel profiles, culvert sizing, and stormwater routing analyses
- Prepared hydrological reports and drainage appendices to national standards & regulatory approval
Roads, Drainage & Hydrology Engineer — Lead Designer - AMY Metom Engineering - Tel Aviv, Israel
(2010-01 - 2020-12)
10 years as lead drainage and hydrology designer on major national infrastructure — highways, light rail, ports, and international projects. Full design lifecycle from feasibility through construction-phase support.
- Designed drainage systems, channels, culverts, detention ponds, berms, and stormwater networks for dozens of projects including Highway 2, Highway 4, Highway 44, and the Jerusalem Green LRT
- Africa — Angola (Kora): Drainage and hydrology design for a 40,000-unit residential city development and rural areas at 14 different sites, including earthworks, roads, channel networks, detention infrastructure, and stormwater master planning across a large greenfield site.
- Africa — Uganda (UNRA): Drainage and systems coordination for a multi-kilometre highway rehabilitation project — designed roadside channels, culvert crossings, and erosion protection in challenging tropical conditions
- Africa — Ghana (Prabon): Detailed drainage design for a residential subdivision — channel profiles, inlet/outlet structures, and stormwater routing
- Prepared and signed off on tens of hydrological reports and drainage appendices for Netivei Yisrael, Israel Railways, and Crossroads Israel — all submitted to and approved by government regulators
- Proactive error identification: Caught design conflicts before site mobilisation on multiple projects, avoiding costly mid-construction changes — estimated savings of 10–20% of construction variation costs per project
- Construction-phase supervision on the Jerusalem Green Line LRT Line(20 km) field coordination, RFI responses, and as-built verification
- Lead designer for Herzliya Train Station: drainage solution, systems coordination, and traffic management from tender through construction
