About the client

Our client is an established Texas commercial electrical contractor with a growing estimating team and an expanding presence in mission critical work, including data centers. It has a close-knit, team-oriented culture built on accountability and continuous learning.


Why this opportunity

  • Fully remote, with the flexibility to work where you're most productive.
  • Price commercial and mission critical work for a contractor that is actively growing in data centers.
  • Performance bonuses on top of a competitive salary.
  • Mentor junior estimators and help shape the bidding process, with a route into estimating leadership.

Locations and travel

What you'll do

  • Prepare detailed cost estimates for electrical projects, covering labor, materials and equipment.
  • Review and analyze drawings, specifications and scopes of work.
  • Work with project managers, engineers and design teams to clarify project requirements.
  • Build relationships with subcontractors and suppliers to secure accurate pricing.
  • Carry out risk analysis, spot cost-saving opportunities, and prepare and submit bid proposals.
  • Mentor and train junior estimators, and keep the estimating process current with industry tools and best practices.

What you'll bring

  • Six or more years of electrical estimating in commercial construction, ideally including mission critical work.
  • Proficiency with estimating software such as Accubid, PlanSwift or Syspro, plus advanced Excel.
  • A strong understanding of the NEC and industry standards.
  • A track record of managing multiple estimates at once and hitting tight bid deadlines.
  • The ability to work independently and accurately in a remote or hybrid setting.
  • A bachelor's degree in construction management, engineering or a related field. CPE certification is a plus.
