Job description

TBL Mission Critical seeks a Senior Electrical Estimator to lead electrical estimating efforts across our portfolio of mission critical construction projects. This is a high-impact role for someone who combines technical depth with a strong sense of ownership and structure.

You’ll be responsible for developing and implementing consistent estimating workflows, supporting pursuit strategy with accurate budgets, and translating complex drawings and field conditions into reliable cost projections. The ideal candidate is as comfortable conducting site walks and evaluating constructability as they are building processes and guiding others. Strong communication and organizational skills are essential, as is a mindset rooted in precision and accountability.

Responsibilities

• Lead the preparation of electrical estimates across all phases of preconstruction—from conceptual through final pricing.
• Conduct site visits to assess field conditions, gather takeoff data, and validate assumptions.
• Develop and maintain standardized estimating processes and tools to drive consistency and accuracy.
• Prepare detailed quantity takeoffs, budgets, scope narratives, and bid deliverables.
• Collaborate with vendors, subcontractors, and internal teams to ensure pricing accuracy and scope alignment
• Contribute to strategic bid planning, including participation in client-facing meetings during preconstruction to ensure alignment between budget, scope, and delivery expectations.
• Provide leadership and mentorship within the preconstruction team to elevate overall estimating capability

Qualifications

• A bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering, construction management, or a related field (preferred).
• Certification and Licensing related to construction estimating or electrical trades (preferred).
• Minimum 7 years of experience in electrical estimating, with a strong understanding of commercial or industrial construction (required).
• Experience estimating in live environments with uptime constraints (preferred).
• Familiarity with mission critical environments such as data centers, cleanrooms, or semiconductor facilities (preferred).
• Prior client-facing or business development support experience (preferred).
• Proficiency in Procore (required) and the Microsoft Office Suite (required); familiarity with Service Fusion (preferred).
• Proven ability to manage estimating workflows, meet deadlines, and contribute to team performance.
• Highly organized with a process-focused mindset and strong attention to detail.
• Effective communicator with the ability to translate complex scopes into clear, actionable estimates.
• Demonstrated commitment to continuous improvement and professional growth.
