From Civil Engineering to Supply Chain Optimization It’s been 8+ years since I started my career, and the journey from a civil engineer managing projects in India to a supply planner for industrial automation in Canada has been incredible. Many people ask how civil engineering translates to supply chain management. The answer? Structure, planning, and execution. Whether I was managing a ₹75+ crore procurement portfolio for highway infrastructure or now planning 1,500+ high-tech SKUs across North America, the core principles remain the same: align your upstream suppliers with your downstream demand. My engineering background taught me how to analyze complex datasets, and my PMP certification gave me the framework to execute projects seamlessly. If you're transitioning into a new field or country, don't discount your past experiences. They are the foundation of your unique perspective. What has been your biggest career transition so far?
