Electrical Estimator - Remote

Overview

Omega Contractors is hiring an Electrical Estimator with a strong background in industrial electrical construction and some commercial estimating experience. This role independently develops accurate, defensible estimates and supports bid strategy, scope clarification, and handoff to operations. Proficiency using 3D building models to validate scope and support quantity development is required.

In Short

• Independently prepare estimates for industrial electrical projects (new installs, expansions, retrofits, shutdowns/turnarounds).
• Support commercial electrical estimates as needed (tenant improvements, lighting/power, service/distribution upgrades).
• Perform detailed quantity takeoffs and labor hour development; produce clear inclusions/exclusions, assumptions, alternates, and clarifications.
• Use and interpret 3D models to validate quantities, confirm routing/equipment placement, identify conflicts, and improve constructability.
• Solicit, evaluate, and level vendor/subcontractor pricing to ensure complete scope coverage and compliance with requirements.
• Participate in internal estimate reviews; provide a strong basis-of-estimate and support a clean transition to project execution teams.

Requirements

• 3–7 years of electrical estimating experience with a heavy industrial emphasis.
• Demonstrated experience estimating electrical systems including distribution equipment, conduit/raceway, cable tray, wire/cable, terminations, grounding/bonding, and equipment connections.
• Working experience leveraging 3D building modeling for takeoffs and coordination (model navigation, scope verification, and clash/constraint awareness).
• Strong written communication skills (RFIs/clarifications) and ability to produce traceable estimate documentation.
• Proficiency with Excel and disciplined estimating workflows (training provided on Omega Contractors’ estimating platform).
• Ability to work in a hybrid environment and attend site walkdowns/pre-bid meetings as needed.

Benefits

• Competitive salary based on experience.
• Flexible work environment with hybrid options.
• Professional development and training opportunities.
• Health and wellness benefits.
• Supportive team culture.
