This role requires strong technical judgment, disciplined document review, and a solid understanding of electrical systems and field construction practices.

- Prepare takeoffs for controls, fire alarm, low‑voltage systems, and EV charging infrastructure as required.
- Develop labor projections and pricing based on construction scope.
- Identify scope gaps, coordination issues, and concerns within bid documents.
- Review and analyze supplier and subcontractor quotes for accuracy, completeness, and compliance.
- Assist in preparing scope narratives, clarifications, and exclusions for proposals.
- Support preconstruction meetings, scope reviews, and bid leveling discussions.
- Assist with estimate handoff, procurement support, and change‑order pricing as needed.
- Minimum of 5+ years of electrical estimating experience or estimating and field experience.
- Experience with estimating and takeoff software (e.g., Accubid, Count Fire, Bluebeam).
- Proficiency in Microsoft Word and Excel.
- Ability to identify risk areas, scope concerns, and questions requiring clarification.
- Strong organizational skills and attention to detail.
- Clear written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to document assumptions and scope accurately.
- Multifamily, Commercial, healthcare, or mixed‑use construction preferred.
- Additional Trades (i.e. HVAC, Plumbing, Fire Systems, etc.).
Starting salary of $95,000, with final compensation determined by relevant experience.
