Worldwide

Summary

We help small U.S. construction businesses estimate jobs faster with an AI assisted system, and we need an experienced estimator to be the quality control behind it. You will not do takeoffs from scratch. You will check the AI's takeoffs and estimates, catch what is wrong, and correct it. Full time, long term, remote. 🛑 NON NEGOTIABLE - Work same time as our team 9am - 5pm est - If this works for you, continue reading. ✅ What you will do • Check AI generated takeoffs against the plans, line by line, and fix what is wrong (quantities, missed scope, bad assumptions). • Quote remodeling jobs from photos plus a short scope (example: "replace kitchen backsplash, about 18 linear feet, white subway tile"), then compare the AI's version to yours. • Across all major residential trades: flooring, tile, paint, drywall, framing, roofing, concrete, plumbing, electrical, and more. • Report clearly on Slack where the estimate went wrong so our team can improve the system. 🎯 You must have • 3+ years estimating and quantity takeoffs in U.S. residential construction. • Strong across all major trades, comfortable with takeoff software (PlanSwift, Bluebeam, or similar). • Reliable, with predictable daily availability and overlap during U.S. business hours. This is non negotiable. 🚀 Offer: full time, long term, one company. Stable pay plus bonuses. Training provided. Build and own this function. We start this week. 📝 Apply only if you want full time, long term work with one company. Do not apply for a side gig or if you cannot commit to a set schedule. Send: a short note on why you fit, your U.S. estimating experience and tools, 1 or 2 sample takeoffs or estimates, your hourly rate, and any limitations (example: "no HVAC").
