Sergio Vera es Profesor Asociado del Departamento de Ingeniería y Gestión de la Construcción de la Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile. Es profesor del Magister en Administración de la Construcción (MAC) y Jefe del Diplomado en Gestión de la Sustentabilidad en Empresas y Organizaciones de la UC. Sus áreas de especialización son el diseño de edificios sustentables, modelamiento del desempeño energético y confort visual/térmico de los edificios, evaluación del impacto de envolventes complejas en el desempeño de edificios y la ciudad, y evaluación de la sustentabilidad de empresas constructoras. Actualmente es investigador asociado del Centro de Desarrollo Urbano Sustentable (CEDEUS) y ha participado/participa en diversos proyectos de investigación CORFO, FONDECYT, FONDEF, Eran-NET, entre otros. Es autor y co-autor de diversas publicaciones con revisión de pares. Es consultor, a través de la sección Construcción Sustentable de DICTUC, para el apoyo al diseño integrado de edificios sustentables, participando en proyectos como Edificio Moneda Bicentenario, Edificio ONEMI, Hospital de Antofagasta, viviendas sociales TECHO, Edificio Ciencia y tecnología UC, etc. Es socio y fundador de HEATConcrete, innovación que ha sido premiada con el 1er lugar en BrainUC 2015, GlobalUC2016 y premio a la innovación Nacional Fundación Sacyr 2017. En la actualidad es Director del Instituto de la Construcción y del Green Building Council Chile, y miembro del Directorio de la International Association of Building Physics y de la International Building Performance Simulation Association de Chile.
