    About the Role
    MatPel is seeking an Estimator to join our San Francisco team. Estimators are essential to how we engage with clients, architects, and trade partners. This role supports our Preconstruction team in developing accurate, transparent budgets that empower clients and design partners to make informed decisions.
    The Estimator works closely with the Director of Preconstruction, fellow estimators, project managers, and field teams to ensure that every project begins with a complete and reliable cost foundation. Based full-time in our San Francisco Bay Area, this position is client facing and collaborates regularly with a well-connected Preconstruction team whose other members may be remote. Strong communication and proactive coordination are central to how the team works together across offices.

    • Ensure all pricing is current, accurate, and consistent with contract documents and within MatPel's cost templates.
    Client & Architect Engagement
    • Lead client or design meetings to discuss scope and assumptions.
    • Prepare and deliver clear, polished deliverables.
    • Communicate cost drivers and alternatives; contribute to value engineering and problem solving.
    • Support business development activities (events, conferences, outreach, etc.) and pursuit follow-ups as needed.
    Qualifications
    • Collaborative mindset, critical thinking, and curiosity to learn from peers, trade partners, and clients.
    • Minimum 3-years of high-end residential estimating experience.
    • Experience with a range of project scales, from $5M up to $20M+.
    • Strong proficiency in Excel; familiarity with estimating, takeoff, and scheduling tools (graphics experience a plus).
    • Degree in Construction Management, Architecture, Engineering, or related field preferred (or equivalent experience).
    • Strong understanding of residential systems, detailing, materials, and construction sequencing.
    • Excellent drawing interpretation, organization, presentation, and communication skills.
    • Able to meet deadlines and work both independently and collaboratively across departments.
    • Comfortable managing shifting priorities in a dynamic environment.
