Carl Sastre

Detail-oriented Electrical Engineer with 5 years of experience in mixed-use high-rise construction and 5 years in building operation. My ability to quickly grasp and interpret civil, architectural, mechanical, and plumbing plans adds significant value to construction operations. My achievements include reducing 1-5% of subcontractor project costs.

I was also assigned as the interim MEPF Supervisor on my first job within one year and successfully executed energization on my first project. I am now seeking a role where I can apply my professional skills.
