Coordinate with project teams to ensure estimates align with construction means and methods
Perform other related duties as assigned to support the estimating and preconstruction team

What You Bring

Experience preparing, reviewing, and presenting complex electrical estimates
Knowledge of Plan & Spec, Design-Assist, and Design-Build delivery models

Familiarity with local codes, AHJ requirements, and city and county specifications
Proficiency with Accubid, Bluebeam, Microsoft Excel, and Microsoft Office tools
Strong analytical, organizational, and communication skills
Ability to work independently with minimal day-to-day supervision in a fast-paced estimating environment
Strong work ethic and attention to detail

Preferred Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience)
3+ years of electrical estimating experience in commercial, industrial, utility, or infrastructure-related projects
