Senior Mechanical Estimator: PROCON E&C, Buford, GA (on-site)

What you'll do

• Prepare complete mechanical estimates (HVAC, plumbing, and process piping) for commercial and industrial projects: quantity takeoffs, labor units, equipment and material pricing, and subcontractor/vendor quotes
• Source and track private-sector bid opportunities through platforms such as BuildingConnected, Dodge, and ConstructConnect, and recommend which projects to pursue (bid/no-bid)
• Review drawings and specifications, identify scope gaps and risks, and write clear clarifications and exclusions
• Manage multiple bids at the same time and hit every deadline
• Lead scope reviews with equipment vendors and subcontractors and level their quotes
• Hand off awarded projects to operations with a clean budget and scope summary
• Improve our estimating templates, cost database, and historical data so every bid gets faster and more accurate

What we're looking for

• 7+ years of mechanical estimating experience (commercial/industrial)
• Estimating experience at a general contractor or a mechanical trade contractor — we value depth in either, and experience on both sides is a strong plus
• Ability to both build detailed self-performed estimates and evaluate, scope, and level subcontractor bids
• Required: experience finding and pursuing private-sector bids through bid platforms (e.g., BuildingConnected, Dodge, ConstructConnect)
• Proven record of carrying estimates end to end with minimal oversight
• Strong understanding of HVAC systems, ductwork, piping, plumbing, and controls interfaces
• Proficiency with estimating and takeoff software (e.g., Trimble/QuickPen, FastEST, Bluebeam)
• Clear written and verbal communication with owners, GCs, and field teams
• Preferred: experience on advanced industrial projects such as battery plants, semiconductor plants, or large manufacturing plants
• A plus: public or federal bidding experience (e.g., SAM.gov, prevailing wage)

Compensation & benefits

• $120,000 – $140,000 per year, based on experience
• Profit-based annual bonus eligibility
• Medical and dental insurance
• Company-paid AD&D and term life insurance
• 401(k) with company match
• Paid time off (PTO) and paid holidays
• Travel: up to approximately 10% for site visits and client meetings
