A well-established, self-performing underground utilities contractor in Austin is looking to add an experienced Estimator to its preconstruction team. This role is suited to someone who already understands either public-sector or private wet utilities work and can independently lead estimates on complex projects across Central Texas.

This is a key hire for the business and offers strong compensation, long-term stability, and the opportunity to play a direct role in winning and shaping major municipal projects.

  • Analyze plans, specifications, and bid documents to fully define scope, risk, and pricing strategy
  • Perform and oversee quantity takeoffs for underground utilities, including water, sanitary, and storm systems
  • Develop accurate labor, material, equipment, and subcontractor pricing based on self-perform capabilities
  • Solicit, evaluate, and level subcontractor and supplier quotes
  • Identify risk, constructability issues, and value-engineering opportunities during the bid phase
  • Prepare complete bid packages and support final bid submissions
  • Maintain and utilize historical cost data to improve accuracy and consistency across bids
  • Collaborate with leadership during go / no-go decisions and bid reviews

What You'll Need

  • Proven experience in estimating public-sector underground utility projects
  • Strong understanding of self-performing heavy civil work and cost structures
  • Ability to independently run estimates from start to finish
  • High level of accuracy, attention to detail, and commercial awareness
  • Strong communication skills when working with internal teams, suppliers, and subcontractors
  • Proficiency in estimating Software such as HCSS Heavy Bid, PlanSwift or Win2Bid
  • Degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, or similar is preferred but not required
  • What's On Offer

  • Base salary up to $160k, depending on experience
  • Possible Sign-on bonus
  • Comprehensive benefits package
  • Long-term career stability with a respected Central Texas contractor
  • A senior-level seat in a lean estimating team with real influence on project wins
  • Estimator – Underground Utilities
