Full Job Description

Position Summary

ENGCO (engcous.com) is a Texas engineering and construction firm delivering commercial, industrial, and civil projects — including PEMB and structural steel buildings — with engineering, estimating, and construction under one accountable team. We are seeking a self-sufficient GC Estimator to own our bid pipeline end to end: identifying opportunities, developing relationships, preparing accurate full-scope cost estimates, and submitting winning bids across competitive and negotiated work.

This is a unique opportunity to help build and scale ENGCO's estimating department. The successful candidate will play a key role in developing our estimating standards, subcontractor relationships, pricing databases, and bid strategy while working directly with company leadership.

Typical Project Profile

Commercial projects typically ranging from $500K to $20M: warehouses, retail, office buildings, churches, industrial facilities, PEMB structures, and municipal work, alongside civil and land development scopes.

Key Responsibilities

Estimating & Bidding

Own the full bid lifecycle — takeoffs, all-trade pricing, subcontractor leveling, proposal assembly, on-time submission, and follow-up.
Pursue negotiated work, private commercial projects, and design-build opportunities in addition to competitive bids.
Identify bid opportunities and build ENGCO's presence on bid platforms and GC prequalification portals (BuildingConnected, SmartBid, Dodge, plan rooms, municipal portals).
Perform quantity takeoffs for concrete, steel, earthwork, utilities, paving, structural, architectural, and MEP scopes.
Estimate PEMB and structural steel scopes, including material, fabrication, and erection costs.
Prepare detailed cost estimates, budgets, and bid proposals; develop conceptual estimates during early planning stages.
Analyze labor, equipment, material, and subcontractor costs; identify project risks and recommend cost-saving alternatives.
Maintain current pricing databases for labor, equipment, and materials; assist with value engineering and constructability reviews.
Track win/loss rates and refine bid strategy with leadership.

Business Development & Client Engagement

Develop and maintain relationships with subcontractors and suppliers; solicit and evaluate their quotations.
Build relationships with owners, architects, and developers; network to uncover negotiated work.
Maintain ENGCO's GC prequalification status with key clients.
Present estimates to leadership and clients; participate in scope review meetings; support interviews and presentations.
Attend pre-bid meetings and perform site visits; coordinate with engineers, architects, and project managers to clarify requirements.
Support project teams during contract negotiations and project handoff.

Required Qualifications

4+ years of experience estimating full commercial GC bids — all trades, ground-up.
Hands-on experience pricing PEMB and structural steel packages — material, fabrication, and erection cost drivers. This is core to the role, not a plus.
Strong understanding of construction methods, materials, and building systems.
Ability to read and interpret architectural, structural, civil, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing drawings independently.
Proficiency in Bluebeam, Microsoft Excel, and Word, plus experience with quantity takeoff and estimating software.
Self-starter who builds a bid pipeline and brings a network — not just responds to invitations.
Excellent mathematical, analytical, and organizational skills; strong written and verbal communication.
Ability to manage multiple bids simultaneously and meet strict deadlines.
Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, or a related field preferred.

Strong Pluses

Existing relationships with Houston-area subcontractors and suppliers — highly desirable; good estimators bring their network with them.
Experience with Procore, BuildingConnected, SmartBid, PlanSwift, On-Screen Takeoff (OST), Sage Estimating, or HeavyBid.
Civil, sitework, utilities, drainage, earthwork, and land development estimating experience.
AISC familiarity and knowledge of local permit requirements and construction practices.
Design-build experience and conceptual budgeting from preliminary plans.

Compensation & Benefits

$85,000–$110,000 base salary, commensurate with experience.
Quarterly performance bonus based on successful bid awards, estimate accuracy, and contribution to company backlog.
Paid holidays and vacation.
Opportunity to shape and grow ENGCO's estimating department, with advancement as the department scales.
