  • Coordinate with project managers and field personnel to ensure estimates align with constructability and schedule goals.
  • Attend pre-bid meetings and conduct site visits to assess conditions and logistical considerations.
  • Maintain historical cost data and update unit pricing as market conditions change.
  • Assist with budgeting, value engineering, and change order pricing on awarded projects.

Qualifications:

  • High school diploma or GED required; degree in civil engineering, construction management, or related field preferred.
  • 5+ years of estimating experience in wet utilities, underground infrastructure, or heavy civil construction.
  • In-depth knowledge of installation methods for water mains, sewer lines, and storm drainage systems.

  • Proficient with estimating tools such as Bluebeam, Excel, Agtek, or HCSS (preferred).
  • Understanding of prevailing wage requirements, union labor rates, and public works bidding procedures in California.
