• Integrate data smoothly into the client's internal processes and learn to navigate their custom-built, proprietary bidding software/system.
• Meticulously review project documentation to execute bulletproof double-checks, ensuring final bids are fully transparent and inclusive of all specialized components.
• Project Types:
• High-end custom residential builds ($1M–$3.2M+ scope)
• Commercial tenant improvements (TI) and full commercial build-outs
• Commercial kitchen builds (incorporating complex systems like commercial exhaust hoods and specialized equipment)
• Multi-divisional coordination involving custom cabinetry and specialized finishes

• Software Proficiency: Highly fluent in industry-standard takeoff tools such as Bluebeam, PlanSwift, or On-Screen Takeoff (OST), with a strong aptitude for adapting to proprietary digital systems.
• Communication & Alignment: Absolute bilingual fluency in English (written and spoken) for seamless internal reporting and professional vendor/subcontractor collaboration.
