• Review engineering documentation, design packages, one-line diagrams, bills of material (BOMs), project specifications, and field documentation to develop accurate estimates for utility-scale Solar and BESS projects.
• Develop detailed bottoms-up cost estimates for labor, equipment, materials, subcontractors, rentals, mobilization, and other project costs.
• Perform electrical quantity takeoffs and develop labor and productivity models using engineering design packages and available project documentation.
• Develop estimate assumptions, exclusions, allowances, escalation factors, and contingency strategies to appropriately account for project scope and commercial risk.
• Partner with project development, engineering, procurement, and construction teams to validate scope assumptions, identify project risks, and support proposal development.
• Evaluate vendor and subcontractor pricing and maintain current material, equipment, labor, and productivity data to support competitive and accurate cost models.
• Conduct site visits as needed and incorporate actual project costs, execution feedback, and lessons learned to continuously improve estimating accuracy and proposal qualit

• Experience estimating electrical construction work for an electrical contractor, EPC contractor, or similar organization.
• Experience evaluating and estimating work where project or field documentation may be incomplete or require additional scope validation.
• Experience using cost estimating methodologies and estimating software.
• Experience performing quantity takeoffs, labor modeling, productivity analysis, vendor quote evaluation, and contingency development.
• Willing and able to travel up to 25% to project sites, customer meetings, and other business locations.

• Experience estimating utility-scale Solar, BESS, or other large-scale electrical construction projects.
• Experience with InEight Estimating or similar estimating software used for large-scale EPC or construction projects.
• Knowledge of electrical commodity pricing and market drivers, including major equipment and materials such as cable, switch gear, transformers, and collection systems.
• Experience developing or improving estimating processes, tools, databases, or methodologies.

For this role, we anticipate paying $110,000 - $150,000 per year. This role is eligible for variable pay, issued as a monetary bonus or in another form.
