Jose Flores

CAD Technician

Welcome to our team!   

 

What did you do before joining Civiltec? (Work/School) 

Before joining Civiltec I was working in Riverside, for a company called Woodard and I was doing drafting, grading and WQMPs and I also just recently graduated from Cal Poly Pomona this past summer.

What made you decide to pursue engineering? 

I originally was doing architecture but I wanted to get more into the details and number of a structure and once I switched to engineering, I really got into water treatment and remediation.

What drew you to work for Civiltec? 

I worked for a small company, there were only 5 people at my other job and I wanted to go for something bigger and well established. 

What do you enjoy about your day-to-day work? 

I liked that we are always busy and that I do not have any down time and my days go by fast.

This job does not feel like a job, feels like a hobby.

What has been one highlight of the past three months? (A favorite project or day?)

Getting more hands on training when it comes to grading and learning a lot from Dan and Octavio.

What is the number one thing on your bucket list? 

My goal at the moment is to take my FE and PE and pass them.

What do you do besides working?  

I like to play video games, when I was younger I used to go to tournaments.

I also enjoy hiking and spending my weekends exploring with my dog.
