1. Who is Rubén Rodríguez?
I'm a draftsman by profession and have been closely involved with the world of technical drawing since the beginning. I started working in architectural firms, where I learned the importance of detail and doing things right from the ground up. After that, I moved into industrial engineering, where I broadened my technical perspective before joining CLERHP.
I've been with the company for eight years now, a period in which I've had the opportunity to grow and become head of the drafting department. During this time, I've worked on international projects in countries like Bolivia, Paraguay, Uruguay, and the Dominican Republic—experiences that constantly require you to adapt and learn from each project.
At CLERHP, we've also experienced challenging times, especially during the pandemic. It was a difficult period for everyone, but I believe that maintaining team spirit and supporting each other was crucial to moving forward. I've always tried to contribute precisely that: commitment, camaraderie, and an organized way of working so that the department functions as a team.
In addition to my drafting work, I also handle the IT side of the company in Spain, helping to ensure that the entire technical environment functions correctly so that the team can work normally.
Outside of work, I have another great passion: music. In my free time, I'm a professional DJ, which allows me to disconnect, be creative, and enjoy a completely different side of myself.
2. What is your role within the company?
I am currently the head of the drafting department at CLERHP Estructuras. My job involves coordinating the creation of structural drawings and ensuring that all project graphics are clear, accurate, and useful for their proper execution on site.
We work closely with the engineering team, transforming structural calculations into detailed plans that then serve as a guide for construction. I also organize the department's work to ensure projects progress smoothly and on schedule.
In addition, I also provide IT support within the Spanish office, helping to manage the equipment and tools we use daily. Ultimately, it's all part of the same goal: ensuring the team has the necessary resources to work effectively and that projects are successful.
3. What was it about Larimar City & Resort that captivated you?
Larimar City & Resort is one of those projects that, once you learn about it, you understand is something truly special. It's not just an urban development, but the creation of a city with a very ambitious, long-term vision.
In my case, I also had the opportunity to experience it firsthand. This past October, I spent a month there working and witnessing the initial progress of the project in the cliff area. Being on-site and seeing the first steps of something so significant begin to take shape was an incredible experience.
The project's location is simply incredible. Being there, seeing the surroundings, and understanding the true scale of what's being developed makes you realize its potential. I was truly impressed; to say I was surprised is an understatement.
From a professional standpoint, participating in a project of this magnitude is highly motivating. It involves facing new technical challenges, coordinating many elements, and being part of something that goes far beyond a conventional project.
Larimar represents a new chapter for CLERHP, and after having been able to see it with my own eyes, the excitement and desire to contribute to its success are even greater.
