Al momento de su retiro

Non-PRO Spanish to English Other
Al momento de su retiro se desempeñaba como Ingeniero Civil....

Cómo sé si traducirlo como "at the time of his resignation...or " (porque puede que no haya renunciado, verdad.

No Significa "Jubilarse" porque el señor continuó trabajando para otras cías.

Gracias

when he left the company....

retiro could well be retirement, as our colleague explained. But if you're not sure, the above is perfectly common English and gets you around the question...

upon his retirement

It actually could mean retirement. It is not uncommon for a ritired person to begin work somewhere else. All this retirement could be referring to is his retirement from THAT company.

upon ceasing employment with [or leaving] XXX, where he worked as a Civil Engineer...

Esto es lo mejor que te puedo sugerir Cris. Creo que cubre "los imponderables"...o sea, que se haya retirado, jubilidado, o que la empresa le haya despedido o liquidado.

Suerte!
