Job Description

Description :

Buffalo Construction, Inc. is not your typical builder. We’re a people-first construction company built on the foundation of Commitment, Compassion, Celebration, and Continuous Improvement . We believe in Building Better! —better teams, better relationships, and better buildings. If that resonates, you might be ready to join the Herd.

We’re looking for a Construction Project Estimator who can think beyond the spreadsheet—someone who understands that estimating is both a science and an art form. This role requires a high-level professional with deep experience in commercial construction , including complex, large-scale project types.

What You’ll Do :

Preconstruction & Conceptual Estimating

• Develop conceptual budgets and opinions of probable cost from early ideation phases using sketches, mood boards, and similar reference examples.
• Perform detailed material quantity takeoffs and develop cost assumptions from varying levels of project documentation—ranging from schematic designs to fully developed construction drawings (0%–100% design development).
• Deliver pricing strategies that align with different project delivery methods : Bid / Build , Design / Bid / Build , and Design-Build .
• Collaborate closely with project stakeholders—including architects, engineers, and owners—to align cost projections with vision, intent, and feasibility.

Document Control & Design Collaboration

Project Team Integration & Execution Support

What You Bring to the Herd :

Why Buffalo Construction?

At Buffalo, you're not just another estimator. You're part of a preconstruction team that believes in collaboration, transparency, and ownership —not just during bidding, but throughout the entire project lifecycle. We build partnerships the way we build structures : with purpose .

Buffalo Construction is an equal opportunity employer.
