  • Andy Bloom | Devcon

    Previous Andy Bloom Vice President of Construction The construction industry has always been part of Andy Bloom’s DNA being raised around his family’s general contracting company in California’s Central Valley. Growing up, Andy’s summers were spent working as a laborer on concrete tilt-ups before attending Santa Clara University and earning a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering. While at Santa Clara University, he was hired at Devcon Construction as a Project Engineer intern in 2004 and has been with the company since. “As long as I can remember, I knew I was going to be a general contractor; however, it has exceeded all expectations being part of such highly regarded and successful company,” Bloom states. In his role as Vice President of Construction, Bloom’s responsibilities include serving as Devcon’s contact for clients while providing pre-construction, estimating, design management, and scheduling services. During the construction phase, he ensures these services translate to maximum project efficiency and project cost controls. During his time at Devcon, Bloom has been involved with several high-profile clients in a variety of industries – tech companies, professional sports teams, higher education institutions, and venture capitalists. Reflecting on his experience, Bloom says, “Being involved with these large projects is very rewarding, but not without its challenges. Every day is a new challenge, but I could not be prouder to work daily with my fellow Devcon teammates and represent Devcon at the highest level. I look forward to each day and continue to evolve with the latest Silicon Valley has to offer.” Next
