Senior Estimator

Uprite Construction

*Please Note: Uprite Construction is not accepting resumes from third-party agencies for this position. Any unsolicited resumes will be considered Uprite Construction's property, and no fees will be paid for unsolicited referrals.*

Uprite Construction is growing our Southwest presence and looking to bring on a Senior Estimator in Irvine. This person will play a key role in preconstruction, helping us pursue and win complex ground up projects with a strong focus on industrial and large scale commercial work.

We are looking for someone who understands how to price work that actually gets built. Someone who can see a set of plans, understand the risks, and build a real strategy around it. This is a high visibility role with direct impact on the work we take on and how we grow in the region.
What You'll Do:
  • Lead estimating efforts for ground up construction projects, with an emphasis on industrial, tilt up, and large commercial builds
  • Analyze drawings, specifications, and project documents to develop accurate and competitive estimates
  • Build detailed quantity takeoffs and pricing models from conceptual through GMP stages
  • Manage subcontractor outreach, leveling, and bid analysis
  • Work closely with operations, project management, and leadership to align on strategy and execution
  • Identify risks, gaps, and opportunities early in the preconstruction phase
  • Participate in client presentations and help position Uprite as a trusted builder
What You'll Bring:
  • 7 plus years of estimating experience with a commercial general contractor
  • Strong experience with ground up construction, especially industrial projects such as tilt up warehouses, distribution centers, or large scale concrete structures
  • Proven ability to lead estimates independently from early concept through final pricing
  • Deep understanding of construction means and methods, especially related to structural systems and site work
  • Strong relationships with subcontractors in the Southern California market is a plus
  • Comfortable working in a fast moving environment with a high level of ownership
