Assist in drafting technical proposal documents, schedules, and pricing narratives
Provide clear breakdowns and justifications for costs to leadership and clients

Ability to read and interpret technical drawings, specifications, and weld symbols
Proficiency in Excel (including formulas/tables), MS Project, and Adobe Pro
Familiarity with fabrication workflows, including job routing, inspection requirements, and tooling setups
Skilled in producing complete cost estimates from partial or conceptual information
Strong time management and organizational skills; able to juggle multiple active estimates
Experience developing scopes of work and aligning labor plans to project goals
Effective communicator with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
Must be a U.S. citizen (due to contract and regulatory requirements)
Preferred Qualifications
10+ years of experience in estimating fabrication and machining work
Hands-on experience with ASME/NQA-1 code work and understanding of how regulated quality systems affect cost, schedule, and risk
Familiarity with DOE or government projects and their compliance standards
Experience using estimating or ERP software for quotes and BOMs
Knowledge of shop workflows, machine run times, and labor efficiencies
