Software Experience
Experience with some or all of the following is preferred:

- Profit sharing program
- 90% employer-paid health insurance
- PTO negotiable based on experience
- Stable daytime schedule
- Limited hybrid flexibility available
Why This Opportunity?
- A longstanding company backed by decades of industry experience

- Direct access to leadership and decision makers
- Long-term career opportunity with a respected contractor
If you’re an experienced estimator who understands both the office and field side of mechanical construction, this could be an excellent long-term fit.
