Paulo Vitor Cardozo

Leading multidisciplinary engineering projects from planning through execution, ensuring scope alignment, schedule adherence, and quality standards. Responsible for project planning, timeline management, cost control, and cross-functional coordination between technical teams, suppliers, and stakeholders. Monitor project performance through structured reporting, risk assessment, and continuous process optimization initiatives. Contribute to feasibility analysis, budget forecasting, and strategic decision-making to improve operational efficiency and project outcomes.

Managed contract lifecycle and supported end-to-end project execution within multidisciplinary environments. Oversaw budgeting, procurement planning, vendor negotiations, and contract governance to ensure alignment with scope, cost, and schedule objectives. Coordinated cross-functional teams (technical, field, and suppliers), facilitating communication, issue resolution, and execution tracking. Implemented process improvements and operational controls that strengthened governance, reduced inefficiencies, and supported data-driven decision-making.

Site Manager responsible for supporting the management of multidisciplinary projects during the implementation of the Itumbiara Solar Plant (GO). Led the coordination and supervision of civil, mechanical, and electrical workstreams, ensuring technical compliance, quality standards, schedule adherence, and scope alignment. Monitored physical progress, performed critical path analysis, identified project risks and bottlenecks, and delivered structured performance reports. Acted as the key interface between field teams, designers, EPC contractor, and client, supporting project governance, executive decision-making, and mitigation of schedule and execution deviations.

Managed multidisciplinary photovoltaic power plant projects, overseeing planning, execution, and site control with focus on schedule, cost, scope, and performance metrics. Led site operations, coordinating internal and third-party teams, managing service contracts, and supporting procurement and vendor negotiations to ensure integrated project delivery. Oversaw cost control, schedule tracking, and KPI management, providing performance insights to leadership and ensuring execution predictability and operational efficiency.

During my tenure as a Civil Engineer Trainee in a photovoltaic power plant project, I played an active role in supporting site operations and project coordination, contributing to the planning and execution of multidisciplinary construction activities. I collaborated closely with project leadership to ensure alignment between scope, schedule, and cost objectives, while supporting contract administration, vendor coordination, and procurement processes. I contributed to workforce supervision and subcontractor management, assisting in execution tracking and ensuring operational integration across workstreams. Additionally, I supported cost control initiatives and performance monitoring through the analysis of schedule and budget KPIs, strengthening project governance and execution predictability.

Worked on multidisciplinary projects focused on geoprocessing and land regularization (REURB) for residential and commercial developments. Contributed to the structuring and implementation of the Land Regularization department, supporting the organization, governance, and operational framework of technical activities. Participated in the development and implementation of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for both field and office engineering services, driving process standardization, operational efficiency, and quality control. Led topographic surveys using GNSS RTK GPS technology, conducted aerial mapping operations, and managed geospatial data collection, processing, and validation. Prepared technical maps and descriptive reports to support strategic decision-making and regulatory compliance processes.

Supported project execution and site management activities in low- and mid-rise residential construction projects. Assisted in planning, execution tracking, and operational control, with focus on schedule management, quantity take-offs, contract administration, and progress measurement. Contributed to the development and monitoring of execution schedules, prepared quantity surveys for procurement and contractor hiring, supported contract adjustments, and assisted in payment control processes. Monitored subcontractor performance, ensured technical compliance on-site, interfaced with public authorities for inspections and approvals, and supported overall construction governance, including participation in the implementation of the Sunshine Residential project.

Active member of the Tutorial Education Program (PET), a competitive academic leadership initiative focused on integrating research, teaching, and community outreach. Led and collaborated on multidisciplinary projects aimed at improving academic performance and reducing dropout rates within the Civil Engineering program. Organized and managed academic events, including lectures, workshops, conferences, and the university-wide “Inova Civil” event, promoting student engagement and community integration. Designed and delivered training programs and technical courses, including Excel and AutoCAD, for undergraduate students and external participants. Provided tutoring sessions and academic mentoring, contributing to student development and performance improvement. Coordinated extension activities in local schools and participated in national PET conferences, as well as contributing to scientific publications.
