  2. Strong knowledge of electrical systems, drawings, and construction documentation.
  3. Experience with industry estimating software ( Accubid preferred ).

  5. Ability to manage multiple deadlines and operate independently with limited supervision.
  6. Strong communication skills for interfacing with internal teams, vendors, and subcontractors.

Benefits

  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • Retirement plan options (e.g., 401(k) with company match)
