- Develop detailed quantity takeoffs for concrete, steel, timber, piling and waterfront infrastructure components.
- Collaborate with engineers, project managers and field supervisors to evaluate constructability and alternative means or methods.
- Assess site conditions, tidal ranges, access logistics and marine construction constraints affecting productivity and cost.
- Collaborate with subcontractors, suppliers, and vendors to secure competitive and reliable pricing that reflects current market conditions.
- Ensure all estimates comply with company standards, are thoroughly reviewed, and are completed accurately within established deadlines.

- Strong understanding of pile driving, cofferdam installation, dredging operations and marine equipment mobilization.
- Experience with design-build or CMAR delivery for waterfront and port projects.
- Established relationships with local marine subcontractors, barge and material suppliers.
- Familiarity with permitting and environmental requirements associated with marine work (USACE, NOAA, state coastal agencies).
- Strong problem-solving abilities with a solution-oriented approach and excellent communication skills.
