Location: Remote
Employment: Full-Time
Travel: Periodic travel to project sites and company meetings
Reports To: President / Executive Management

This is a key position within the company. The successful candidate will not simply prepare quantity takeoffs. They will become a technical resource for estimating, project management and operations teams and will help establish the company’s estimating standards, production rates, historical cost database and reinforcing-steel preconstruction process.

The ideal candidate has substantial hands-on experience in the reinforcing-steel industry, preferably with a rebar fabricator, reinforcing contractor, placer, or major concrete contractor.

The individual must be able to independently review structural drawings and specifications, perform reinforcing-steel takeoffs, develop labor and material pricing, understand detailing requirements, identify constructability issues, and provide management with a reliable estimate of the cost and risk associated with a project.

CORE RESPONSIBILITIES:

Rebar Estimating:

• Perform complete reinforcing-steel quantity takeoffs from structural drawings and specifications.
• Develop accurate estimates for material, fabrication, detailing, placing labor, equipment, freight and other project costs.
• Establish labor hours and production assumptions based on project-specific conditions.
• Analyze bar sizes, tonnage, congestion, splice requirements, couplers, dowels, embeds and other reinforcing requirements.
• Review plans and specifications for scope gaps, discrepancies and constructability concerns.
• Identify project risks and potential cost exposures before bid submission.
• Prepare conceptual, preliminary and final estimates.
• Assist management in establishing final bid strategy and selling price.
• Solicit and evaluate material, fabrication, freight and subcontractor pricing when required.
• Maintain organized estimate documentation and assumptions.

Rebar Detailing:

• Review structural drawings and specifications for detailing requirements.
• Prepare and/or review reinforcing-steel placing drawings and bar lists.
• Coordinate reinforcing steel with structural, architectural and MEP requirements.
• Identify conflicts, congestion and constructability issues before they reach the field.
• Review bar sizes, bends, laps, development lengths, couplers, dowels and construction joints.
• Coordinate RFIs related to reinforcing steel.
• Review shop/placing drawings for accuracy and constructability.
• Coordinate revisions and changes throughout the project.
• Work with project management and field personnel to resolve detailing and constructability issues.

Preconstruction & Operations:

• Participate in project turnover from estimating to project management.
• Establish project-specific production and labor assumptions.
• Develop historical cost information for future estimates.
• Compare estimated versus actual production and labor performance.
• Assist project managers with change-order pricing and cost analysis.
• Provide technical support to field supervision when required.
• Participate in preconstruction meetings and project strategy discussions.

Leadership / Department Development:

• Establish standardized estimating procedures.
• Develop estimating templates, checklists and production-rate databases.
• Help select and implement estimating/detailing software.
• Mentor junior estimators and detailers as the department grows.
• Establish quality-control procedures for takeoffs and placing drawings.
• Eventually assume responsibility for the company's reinforcing-steel estimating/detailing function.

IDEAL EXPERIENCE:

The strongest candidates will have:

• 7+ years of reinforcing-steel industry experience, with preference for 10+ years.
• Significant experience estimating reinforcing steel.
• Significant experience detailing reinforcing steel or reviewing placing drawings.
• Experience with large commercial, industrial, wastewater, infrastructure, heavy civil or other concrete-intensive projects.
• Experience estimating projects involving substantial reinforcing-steel tonnage.
• Strong structural drawing and specification reading ability.
• Strong understanding of reinforcing-steel fabrication and field placement.
• Working knowledge of ACI and CRSI requirements and industry practices.
• Experience with AutoCAD, MicroStation, RebarCAD, aSa, Tekla, SDS/2 or comparable software is strongly preferred.
• Strong mathematical and analytical skills.
• Ability to work independently with limited supervision.
• Ability to communicate effectively with project managers, engineers, contractors, vendors and field personnel.
• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail.

A formal college degree is not required if the candidate has substantial relevant industry experience.

HIGHLY DESIRED BACKGROUND:

Preference will be given to candidates who have worked for:

• Reinforcing-steel fabricators.
• Rebar placing contractors.
• Rebar detailing companies.
• Large concrete contractors.
• Heavy civil contractors.
• Industrial concrete contractors.
• Wastewater treatment construction contractors.

Experience with wastewater treatment plants, industrial facilities, power, data centers, bridges, foundations, tanks or other heavily reinforced concrete structures is particularly valuable.

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE:

Within the first 6 months, the successful candidate should be capable of:

• Independently estimating major reinforcing-steel bids.
• Reviewing bid documents and identifying major scope and constructability risks.
• Producing reliable tonnage and labor estimates.
• Supporting project managers with change-order pricing.
• Establishing reliable production-rate benchmarks.
• Developing a historical estimating database.
• Improving consistency and accuracy throughout the estimating process.
• Beginning to build and lead a scalable estimating/detailing department.

PERFORMANCE BONUS:

• Estimating accuracy.
• Gross-margin performance.
• Successful project awards.
• Department development.
• Process improvements.
• Project support.
• Overall company performance.
