Step into a high‑impact, fully remote position where your estimating expertise fuels multi‑million‑dollar construction projects across the United States. At Precision Estimating Solutions, you’ll collaborate with top architects, contractors, and owners to deliver precise cost models that win bids and drive profitability.

About the Role

Precision Estimating Solutions is expanding its remote estimator team and seeks an analytical professional to transform blueprints into reliable cost forecasts. In this role you will partner closely with project managers, design teams, and subcontractors to dissect project scopes, evaluate material and labor pricing, and construct comprehensive bid packages. You will also conduct value‑engineering reviews, identify cost‑saving opportunities, and ensure that every estimate aligns with client objectives and budgetary constraints. The position offers the autonomy of remote work while maintaining direct access to senior leadership and a collaborative virtual environment.

Key Responsibilities

  • Analyze architectural and engineering drawings to produce accurate quantity takeoffs and material lists.
  • Research current supplier catalogs, labor rates, and equipment rental costs to build realistic unit prices.
  • Develop detailed cost proposals, risk assessments, and contingency plans for each bid.
  • Collaborate with senior estimators and project controls to refine estimates throughout design development and construction phases.
  • Maintain and continuously update a centralized cost database, ensuring that historical data informs future estimates.
  • Prepare clear, professional presentations and reports for client review and internal decision‑making.

Requirements

Applicants must possess a minimum of three years of hands‑on estimating experience within commercial, industrial, or infrastructure construction. A bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or a related discipline is preferred. Proficiency with industry‑standard software such as Bluebeam, Microsoft Excel, Sage Estimating, or ProEst is essential, as is a strong command of cost‑coding standards. Excellent written and verbal communication skills, a keen eye for detail, and the ability to thrive under tight deadline pressures complete the ideal candidate profile.

Our remote compensation package reflects the value we place on top talent. You will receive a competitive base salary, performance‑based bonuses, and a full suite of health, dental, and vision benefits. Employees enjoy flexible scheduling, unlimited paid time off, and a generous professional development stipend for certifications, conferences, and continuing education. Additional perks include a home‑office equipment allowance, high‑speed internet reimbursement, and access to cutting‑edge collaboration platforms that keep teams connected across time zones.
