• Soliciting and evaluating subcontractor and supplier pricing
• Developing accurate labor, equipment, and material cost estimates
• Preparing and inputting estimates using HCSS Heavy Bid software
• Identifying risk, cost drivers, and value opportunities within each bid
• Collaborating with Preconstruction, Operations, and Project Management teams
• Supporting bid strategy, scope alignment, and final proposal preparation
• Participating in post-bid and estimate-to-actual reviews
• Mentoring junior estimators and supporting team development
• Promoting consistent estimating standards, processes, and best practices

• 7+ years of estimating experience in heavy civil construction
• Strong knowledge of earthwork, utilities, structures, and marine scopes
• Ability to read and interpret plans, specifications, and contract documents
• Experience with HCSS Heavy Bid (or similar estimating software)
• Proficiency in Microsoft Excel and construction-related technology tools
• Strong attention to detail, organization, and time management
• Ability to manage multiple bids and deadlines independently
