Pre-Construction Project Engineer
Samet Corporation | Greensboro, NC • Raleigh, NC • Charlotte, NC • Wilmington, NC • Charleston, SC • Savannah, GA
This is an evergreen talent-pipeline posting open across all six Samet offices - not a specific, currently open position.
Great careers rarely start with perfect timing. That's why we like to meet strong Pre-Construction Project Engineers before a seat opens up. Applying here puts you on our radar across all six Samet offices-so when the right opportunity fits, whether that's now or a few months down the road, we already know you and you already know us. No perfect timing required; we'd just love to start the conversation.
The Pre-Construction Project Engineer helps shape projects before they break ground. You'll blend hands-on administration (permits, subcontractor processes, notices, and documentation) with the technical work of cost estimating, scheduling, and design coordination, preparing detailed estimates and life-cycle analyses for building systems and supporting the estimating and preconstruction teams.
It's an ideal entry point into preconstruction, with room to grow alongside civil, architectural, structural, and MEP teams and mentorship through Samet University. If you like solving the puzzle of how a project comes together and what it costs, this is where you start.
What You'll Do

• Prepare detailed cost estimates, quantitative surveys, and life-cycle cost analyses for building systems (mechanical, plumbing, electrical).
• Assist in developing CPM project schedules.
• Create written scopes of work and conduct thorough reviews of plans and specifications.
• Obtain construction-related permits from local agencies and ensure proper notices are filed and posted.
• Assist with subcontractor solicitation and contracting.
• Update project logs, status reports, and communications.
• Conduct field inspections and help coordinate project delivery.
• Support the estimating and preconstruction teams on assigned tasks, including bid preparation.
• Collaborate with civil, architectural, and structural teams as needed.
• Support energy-modeling studies and LEED-related projects as needed.

What You Bring

• Bachelor's degree in construction management, engineering, or a related field.
• Experience working with a general contractor, full-time or through an internship.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office, Sage Estimating software, and Primavera (or willingness to learn).
• Strong verbal and written communication skills.
• Interest in cost estimating, scheduling, and building systems; exposure to energy modeling or LEED a plus.
