The ideal candidate has a strong background in multifamily construction estimating, including affordable housing, market-rate apartments, podium construction, wood-frame structures, concrete buildings, and mixed-use developments.

Key Responsibilities
  • Prepare conceptual, schematic, design development, and final construction estimates.

  • Perform detailed quantity takeoffs and analyze labor, material, equipment, and subcontractor costs.

  • Review architectural, structural, civil, and MEP drawings and specifications.

  • Develop project budgets, bid packages, scope sheets, and cost breakdowns.

  • Solicit, review, and level subcontractor and supplier proposals.

  • Identify scope gaps, constructability concerns, and potential project risks.

  • Participate in value engineering and cost-saving initiatives.

  • Coordinate with Project Managers, Superintendents, architects, and consultants during preconstruction.

  • Assist with subcontractor procurement, negotiations, and buyout.

  • Monitor construction market conditions, material pricing, and labor costs.

  • Participate in design development meetings, client presentations, and budget reviews.

  • Maintain accurate estimating records, historical costs, and project documentation.

  • Support project scheduling, construction phasing, and procurement planning.

  • Assist with transitioning projects from preconstruction to operations.

Required Qualifications
  • 3–5+ years of construction estimating or preconstruction experience.

  • Strong experience estimating ground-up multifamily or mixed-use construction projects.

  • Knowledge of podium, wood-frame, concrete, and Type III/V construction.

  • Experience preparing detailed estimates, quantity takeoffs, and project budgets.

  • Ability to read and interpret architectural, structural, civil, and MEP drawings.

  • Experience with subcontractor bidding, bid leveling, and scope analysis.

  • Understanding of construction methods, materials, scheduling, and project costs.

  • Strong analytical, mathematical, organizational, and communication skills.

  • Ability to manage multiple estimates and meet deadlines.

Preferred Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, Architecture, or a related field.

  • Experience estimating affordable housing, market-rate apartments, mixed-use, or large multifamily developments.

  • Experience with podium construction, structural concrete, wood framing, and building envelope systems.

  • Experience with negotiated contracts, GMP estimates, and design-build projects.

  • Knowledge of value engineering, constructability reviews, and preconstruction planning.

  • Proficiency with Bluebeam, On-Screen Takeoff, BuildingConnected, Procore, Excel, or similar estimating software.

  • Familiarity with California construction costs, subcontractor markets, and procurement practices.
