Estimator – Dome Construction 

 

At Dome Construction, we’re not just building structures — we’re building trust, relationships, and lasting impact. We’re currently looking for an experienced Estimator to join our Preconstruction team. This role plays a key part in setting projects up for success from day one. If you enjoy working on complex commercial construction projects and thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative environment, we’d love to connect. 

 

What You’ll Be Doing 

As an Estimator, you’ll lead preconstruction efforts on a variety of exciting projects across sectors like Healthcare, Life Sciences, and Tenant Improvements. You’ll be the go-to for all things estimating — from reviewing early sketches to submitting full proposals and working directly with clients and trade partners. You’ll also help mentor team members and work closely with our operations team to ensure a smooth handoff into construction. 

Key responsibilities include: 

  • Leading multiple preconstruction efforts at a time, including estimates upwards of $20M 
  • Reviewing design documents and identifying missing information or potential risks 
  • Developing strategic proposals and presenting to clients with confidence 
  • Coordinating trade partner outreach, bid forms, and scope coverage 
  • Working in collaboration with project teams to shape schedules and logistics 
  • Reviewing RFPs, identifying risks, and supporting proposal strategy 
  • Staying organized and ahead of deadlines on multiple concurrent pursuits 

 

What We’re Looking For 

We’re looking for someone who’s confident in their estimating ability and knows how to drive results. You’re highly organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable taking the lead. You understand how to turn information (even when it’s incomplete) into a clear plan of action and can communicate that effectively with both internal teams and clients. 

Here’s what will help you succeed: 

  • 3–5+ years of experience in estimating or preconstruction for commercial construction 
  • Strong ability to read and interpret design documents and specifications 
  • Experience working directly with clients and presenting estimates 
  • Ability to juggle multiple estimates in different stages 
  • Familiarity with tools like MS Project, On-Screen Takeoff, and estimating software 
  • Clear communication skills and a collaborative approach to problem-solving 
  • A mindset focused on solutions, accuracy, and continuous improvement 

 

Let’s Build Something Great Together 

If you’re an experienced estimator looking for your next challenge — and you want to work in an environment where your voice matters — we’d love to talk. Apply today and let’s start the conversation.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
