Estimator

Seattle, WA | Hybrid (2–3 days WFH)

We are looking for a detail-oriented and collaborative Estimator to join a well-established, full-service general contractor with a diverse portfolio across residential, commercial, healthcare, life sciences, hospitality, and seismic renovation projects. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment and enjoys tackling a wide variety of project types, from historic renovations and tenant improvements to large-scale multifamily and high-rise conversions.

What You’ll Do

  • Prepare accurate estimates and takeoffs for projects ranging from tenant improvements to $100M+ large-scale renovations
  • Work closely with the Director of Preconstruction, senior estimators, and project teams to develop competitive, reliable bids
  • Manage multiple estimates at once, adjusting quickly to shifting priorities and project types
  • Collaborate with internal stakeholders and external partners to ensure project feasibility and alignment with client expectations
  • Leverage Autodesk’s online takeoff platform, BuildingConnected, Bluebeam, and Excel to perform detailed estimating and analysis
  • Provide mentorship and guidance to junior estimators, fostering growth and knowledge-sharing across the team

What We’re Looking For

  • 5+ years of estimating experience with strong takeoff/counting skills
  • Background in wood-frame buildings, commercial construction, or renovations (highly preferred)
  • Hands-on field experience (e.g., Assistant Superintendent, Project Engineer, or PM with estimating exposure)
  • Strong conceptual understanding of how construction components fit together
  • Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or related field (preferred but not mandatory with equivalent experience)
  • Collaborative, approachable, and adaptable personality, able to mentor, train, and work seamlessly with others
  • Proficiency with Autodesk, BuildingConnected, Excel, Bluebeam, and related estimating platforms
