In the consulting field, he has served as a project manager in Santiago, Chile, developing assessments for both open pit and underground mining.
Notable projects from this period include the "analysis and design of the cavern system for the updated Chuquicamata underground project" and the "stochastic analysis of the Los Pelambres mine." Additionally, he has participated in the tunnel area for the Santiago metro, evaluating the influence of constructing buildings over 11 stories high on tunnel sections to detect associated risks. In Mexico, he has developed various stability projects for Mineras Autlán and Ternium.
He spent 9 years at the Federal Electricity Commission as a discipline head responsible for various tasks related to dam engineering, risk analysis, and excavation stability. Highlights include the designs of caverns and underground works for the "Santiago" hydroelectric project in Ecuador and the "La Yesca" hydroelectric project, where he was part of the on-site geotechnical team for 3 of the 5 years of its construction. In 2016, he developed a series of methodologies to evaluate block falls and rock detachments applied to maintenance within dam engineering for the CFE.
From 2013 to 2017, he was a professor at UNAM, both in the engineering postgraduate program and in the undergraduate programs of geology and mining metallurgy, where he participated in developing the manual for geological fieldwork. In 2016, he was awarded the CAMIMEX Scholarship for his activities as a professor from 2015-2017. He has supervised 6 theses related to geotechnics and numerical modeling, an activity he continues today, along with teaching courses and giving lectures in Mexico, Peru, and Chile.
Winner of the Alfonso Caso Medal for academic merit in postgraduate studies, he has published over 30 technical articles in national and international symposia, with numerical analyses and geotechnical stability assessments being his main focus.
