Andres Felipe Infante Bravo

As an Environmental Monitoring Engineer, I specialized in the inspection and analysis of industrial, groundwater, and surface water; air quality; soil analysis; and environmental noise monitoring. My experience includes conducting monitoring activities for companies such as Canacol, Sierracol–Ecopetrol, ONGC VIDESH, and Geopark S.A.S., across projects located in Yopal, Villanueva, Arauca, Puerto López, among other regions.

In this role, I ensured companies complied with legal environmental requirements through on-site inspections of industrial plants and surrounding areas. I also carried out oversight activities, sampling, geolocation, and the preparation of detailed technical reports, while providing environmental consulting to clients.

I gained experience managing both daytime and nighttime rounds within facilities, developing a deep understanding of industrial processes and environmental management. My work focused on ensuring compliance with current environmental regulations and contributed to improving environmental monitoring and management processes for client companies.

As a Project Manager, I continued developing my skills in project management, problem-solving, and process optimization. My responsibilities included preparing reports, managing databases, coordinating project workflows, and identifying improvement opportunities. I regularly used tools such as Excel, Power BI, and SAP to support data analysis and decision-making.

• I actively participated in the logistics and integration of two companies in Mexico, ensuring a smooth and efficient transition. My contribution using analytical tools was key to organizing data and driving informed decisions, which significantly improved database and process efficiency.
• Additionally, I led campaigns aimed at enhancing and implementing company policies and logistics, ensuring alignment with strategic objectives and promoting continuous improvement in organizational performance.

I participated in project management across Brazil, Chile, and Mexico, handling analysis, optimization, and operational follow-up tasks. My responsibilities included report preparation, database management, project coordination, and process optimization. I utilized Excel, Power BI, and SAP to carry out these tasks effectively.

• Delivered technical reports to support strategic decision-making.
• Managed complex databases using Excel, SAP, and Power BI.
• Led process improvement initiatives, increasing organizational efficiency.
• Directed campaigns to implement new policies and improve logistical operations.
• Demonstrated strong analytical skills and efficient use of digital tools for both operational and strategic support.

As a member of the research group, my primary objective was to contribute to the development of new methodologies in asymmetric synthesis, aimed at preparing natural-product-based molecules of biological and/or structural interest. Special attention was given to compounds with anticancer, antifungal, and antibacterial properties, though not exclusively.

• Participated in the synthesis of organic compounds in the laboratory, leading to the identification of a key precursor compound for the potential synthesis of γ-lactam-containing products with therapeutic potential.
• Organized monthly seminars to present the group’s research progress and achievements, promoting collaboration and the open exchange of both successes and experimental setbacks.
• Developed strong analytical and problem-solving skills by overcoming challenges encountered during the research process and effectively achieving project goals.

My responsibilities included teaching classes in organic chemistry, physical chemistry, analytical chemistry, general chemistry, and several engineering subjects. Together with the team of teaching assistants, we prepared study guides, videos, and reading materials to support and enhance students’ academic performance.

• Delivered targeted tutoring sessions in organic chemistry to help students improve performance in exams and laboratory work.
• Designed and developed study guides and learning materials to support students’ understanding of complex topics.
• Demonstrated strong teaching abilities in chemistry and engineering, as well as effective and pedagogical communication skills in an academic environment.
