About the role

The Estimator is a key participant in project development and the successful capture of business for TNC.  The successful candidate will be familiar with the Association for the Advancement of Cost Engineering (AACE) and their recommended practices related to the development of cost estimates.  The estimator will interface with several stakeholders, both inside and outside of TNC, to develop reliable cost estimates with the appropriate pedigree aligned with international standards. 

Responsibilities

• Estimate Development: Given a scope of work, the estimator will work with key stakeholders to develop an estimate aligned with the requisite AACE classifications appropriate for the phase of the project
• Create a Basis of Estimate: In support of the estimate, the BOE shall provide enough information a reasonable individual can reach the same outcome
• Cross-Functional Collaboration & Stakeholder Alignment: Collaborate with engineering, procurement, construction, commissioning & testing, regulatory, and project controls teams to collect inputs to support estimate development
• Risk and Assumption Identification: Based on inputs, the estimator will identify key risks and assumptions associated with each element of the estimate. The estimator will work with risk personnel to ensure quantitative analysis is performed based on this information and included in the basis of estimate
• Estimating Software & Database Management: Utilize industry-standard estimating platforms (e.g., HCSS HeavyBid, InEight Estimate, Sage Estimating, or CostOS) to develop, organize, and maintain detailed cost estimates with traceable line items, historical benchmarking, and parametric modeling capabilities
• AI-Enhanced Cost Modeling: Leverage AI and machine learning tools to analyze historical project data, identify cost drivers, improve estimate accuracy, and perform automated benchmarking against comparable projects across the fleet
• Proficiency with estimating software and cost databases (e.g., InEight, CostOS, RSMeans, or equivalent) for developing and maintaining structured, auditable cost estimates
• Familiarity with AI/machine learning applications for parametric estimating, historical data analysis, or probabilistic cost modeling (e.g., Monte Carlo simulation tools, @Risk, Crystal Ball)

Experience

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent work experience
• 15+ years of experience in project controls
• 5+ years of experience as an estimator on large project
• Strong understanding of project lifecycle and work breakdown structures 
• Exceptional attention to detail and ability to manage multiple priorities in a dynamic environment 
• Proficiency with estimating software and cost databases for developing and maintaining structured, auditable cost estimates
• Familiarity with AI/machine learning applications for parametric estimating, historical data analysis, or probabilistic cost modeling (e.g., Monte Carlo simulation tools, @Risk, Crystal Ball)
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills
• Exceptional analytical skills

Preferred Experience:

• Experience in the nuclear energy, power generation, or highly regulated industry 
• Familiarity with earned value management, risk analysis, and cost-schedule integration 
• PMP or PMI-SP certification a plus 
• Experience working in a startup or high-growth environment 

Benefits

• Competitive compensation packages
• 401k with company match
• Medical, dental, vision plans
• Generous vacation policy, plus holidays
