DRUMIL MANDERA
Brisbane,Australia
Summary
I’m a civil engineer with experience across both project and site-based roles, currently seconded to Senex Energy through Greentec. I’ve worked on lease pads, access tracks, creek crossings, and other infrastructure projects — from interpreting survey data and preparing civil designs to reviewing contractor pricing and supporting construction on site. I also have a geotechnical background, having supervised landfill and stormwater projects with ADE Consulting. My approach is practical and focused on getting things done efficiently, whether that’s behind a screen or out in the field. I’m now looking to grow further in civil infrastructure roles where I can contribute to a strong team and keep developing technically.
