The Opportunity
We're hiring a Senior Industrial Electrical Estimator to join our growing Tempe team. Reporting to the Arizona General Manager, you'll own the pricing and proposal process for industrial and commercial projects across our Arizona market—working hand-in-hand with Account Executives, Foremen, and customers to win and deliver work that meets Delta Wye's standards.
