Nicolas Arcelin

Project Manager & Software Developer

Bridging civil engineering foundations with modern software development. Building scalable solutions through strategic project management and technical expertise.

Building the Future, One Project at a Time

I'm an experienced Project Manager with 6+ years in the construction industry, now transitioning into software development. I bring a unique perspective that combines engineering rigor with modern technical capabilities.

With a Bachelor's degree in Civil & Environmental Engineering from Florida Gulf Coast University and a second bachelor's in Computer Science from Florida Atlantic University (2026), I bridge the gap between traditional engineering and software innovation.

I'm passionate about bringing technology innovation into construction companies. New tools often meet pushback in the field, so instead of arguing for change I pilot the technology, measure the results, and let the wins speak for themselves. At UrbanFive, I'm heading the implementation of OpenSpace across our team of 7, with 3 in management and 4 superintendents.

Currently serving as an Assistant Project Manager at UrbanFive Construction while building my technical expertise through software development projects. I'm seeking opportunities where I can apply my project management leadership and growing software engineering skills to create impactful solutions.
