Prior to joining the SIS group, Carlos worked as a regional coordinator of solid waste management program for the Regional Government in Chile where he was in charge of the development of regional planning. Before that, he worked on soil remediation projects for an energy company, where he was responsible for the characterisation of contaminated sites and led the remediation process.
