ABOUT RAFAEL JACOB

I am a Structural Engineer and Project Manager at Kiras Engineering, a growing engineering consultancy firm that specializes in designing innovative and sustainable projects. With over seven years of experience in the field, I have successfully managed and delivered over 300 projects, ranging from residential and commercial buildings to bridges and infrastructure. I have a passion for transforming architectural visions into robust, awe-inspiring structures that comply with standards, optimize costs, and enhance quality. As a Project Manager, I lead a multidisciplinary team of architects, contractors, and engineers, ensuring that every stakeholder is aligned towards a common goal. I excel at planning, coordinating, and executing projects within timelines, budgets, and quality standards, using my organizational prowess and drive for excellence. As a Structural Engineer, I design and evaluate structures and structural elements, using advanced software tools such as SAP ROBOT, AutoCAD, and Revit. I conduct intricate structural analyses and prepare technical reports, drawings, and calculations. I also liaise with municipalities and regulatory bodies, securing permits and approvals for our projects. My mission is to create structures that are not only functional and durable, but also aesthetically pleasing and environmentally friendly. I enjoy collaborating with other engineering disciplines and project stakeholders, learning from their perspectives and expertise. I am always eager to take on new challenges and expand my knowledge and skills in the field of structural engineering and project management.
