[Hiring] Glass Estimator @Agent

Role Description

We are seeking an analytical and detail-oriented Remote Estimator to join a seasoned pre-construction team. In this role, you will work closely with senior leadership to augment their bidding capacity, independently owning the estimating process for mid-sized projects ($150K–$500K) while providing vital support on large-scale institutional bids exceeding $2M–$5M+. This is an incredible opportunity for a professional looking to leverage their technical expertise within a stable, supportive U.S. construction framework that values continuous learning and long-term career growth.

Responsibilities

• Prepare highly detailed quantity takeoffs and accurate cost estimates specifically for commercial glass, glazing, and storefront systems.
• Manage end-to-end bid documentation workflows, ensuring all bid preparation requirements and local guidelines are meticulously met.
• Calculate accurate labor cost projections, project timelines, and logistical variables, including specialized assessments for high-rise work requiring swing stages and lifts.
• Lead vendor outreach and request for quotes (RFQs), building and maintaining strong coordination with major U.S. suppliers like YKK, US Aluminum/CR Lawrence, and Old Castle Building Envelope.
• Support pre-construction logistics, compile submittals, and manage RFIs to ensure a seamless handoff to operations teams.
• Utilize Bloom & Beam OST software (or similar estimating platforms) to maintain organized, data-driven pipelines.

Project Types

• Large institutional and healthcare facilities
• Commercial office buildings and high-rise developments
• Hurricane impact-rated glass and resilient building systems

Requirements

• 2+ years of dedicated glass and glazing estimating experience on U.S. construction projects, OR a strong background in Civil Engineering with transferable structural estimating skills.
• Hands-on experience with estimating software—Bloom & Beam OST is highly preferred, but equivalent takeoff platforms are accepted.
• Strong ability to read and interpret complex architectural and structural plans, evaluate labor dynamics, and handle multi-million-dollar bids.
• Exceptional, fluent English communication skills (written and verbal) for accurate internal collaboration and vendor outreach.
• Full-time availability strictly matching U.S. Central Time (CT) operations.
• Prior experience with hurricane-resilient building systems or projects in the Gulf Coast, Caribbean, or Puerto Rico markets is a massive plus.

Compensation

• USD $1,500 - $2,500/month (depending on seniority)
