Estimator - Commercial Construction / Renewable Energy (Solar & BESS)
Estimator – Commercial Construction / Renewable Energy (Solar & BESS)
Portland, ME (Hybrid flexibility)
Are you a Commercial Construction Estimator looking to step into one of the fastest-growing sectors in the U.S.?
We’re partnering with a growing EPC contractor delivering utility-scale solar, distributed generation (DG), and battery energy storage (BESS) projects across the Northeast, and wider US. This is a chance to move beyond traditional building projects and into energy infrastructure that is actively being funded and built.
Why this role stands out:
- Work on large-scale renewable energy projects (solar + BESS),
- Get exposure to full project lifecycle (development → construction),
- Be part of a growing EPC with strong project pipeline,
- Opportunity to learn and transition into renewables (no deep solar experience required).
What you’ll be doing:
- Build detailed cost estimates for: Solar (DG + utility-scale), Battery storage (BESS) & Infrastructure works,
- Analyze drawings, specs, and site conditions,
- Solicit and level subcontractor/vendor pricing,
- Support bid strategy, value engineering, and risk analysis,
- Collaborate with engineering, procurement, and project teams.
What we’re looking for:
- Estimating experience within: Commercial construction, OR Electrical/Infrastructure,
- Strong understanding of full project costing (not just takeoffs),
- Experience in design-build or EPC environments preferred,
- Interest in renewable energy / infrastructure.
Deep Solar experience is a bonus—not a requirement.
