What are some common challenges faced by roofing professionals on the job, and how can they be managed?

Roofing professionals often encounter challenges such as working at heights, exposure to varying weather conditions, and handling heavy materials.

AspectRoofRoofer
CredentialsTypically none required, but certifications like OSHA may be beneficialRequires roofing-specific certifications and licenses in some regions
Work EnvironmentConstruction sites, rooftops, outdoor environmentsOn-site at various building locations, often outdoors
Industry UsageRefers to the structure or surfaceRefers to the skilled worker who installs or repairs roofs

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Roofer, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Roofer, you need solid physical stamina, knowledge of roofing materials and techniques, and often a high school diploma or equivalent. Familiarity with safety harnesses, power tools, and sometimes OSHA safety certifications are typically required. Attention to detail, teamwork, and problem-solving abilities are valuable soft skills in this role. These skills and qualifications are crucial for ensuring quality workmanship, safety on the job, and efficient project completion.

What are Roofers?

Roofers are skilled tradespeople responsible for installing, repairing, and maintaining roofs on residential, commercial, and industrial buildings. Their work involves working with various materials such as shingles, metal, and tiles to ensure roofs are weatherproof and structurally sound. Roofers must follow safety procedures due to the physical demands and heights involved in their job. They may also inspect roofs to assess damage and recommend repairs or replacements. Proper roofing is essential for protecting buildings from the elements and maintaining energy efficiency.

Job description

Mantis Innovation provides managed facility services and turnkey program management with technology-enabled solutions that target the entire building footprint. We look at the entire facility-inside and out-and can impact 70% of what a building operator allocates critical budget dollars toward, including: Strategic electricity and natural gas procurement, renewable energy, and demand response; climate impact reduction and reporting, net zero strategies, and sustainability planning; roofing, solar, HVAC assessment management, pavement, building envelope, data center optimization, and EV charging; lighting/LED retrofits, HVAC/mechanical systems, and BMS/BAS improvements and implementation.

The Design Consultant develops roofing and building envelope designs, scopes of work, specifications, and other project documents for clients. This role helps clients make informed decisions about repairing, maintaining, restoring, or replacing their roofing systems. The Design Consultant turns inspection findings and project requirements into clear, practical recommendations and bid-ready documents. This position manages multiple projects and deadlines while coordinating with clients, contractors, and internal teams.

OUTCOMES
  1. Consistently complete assigned design deliverables by committed deadlines, with target metrics confirmed by manager.
  2. Maintain a design document revision rate of less than 5% after internal quality review, with all required project documentation submitted complete and compliant with Mantis standards.
  3. Prepare cost estimates that align with approved scope, available project data, and manager-reviewed pricing assumptions.
  4. Manage assigned design projects and requests by meeting deadlines, providing regular project updates, and responding to internal and client inquiries within 2 business days in 95% of cases.
  5. Achieve 100% completion of required project records, design files, review documentation, and system updates within 5 business days of each project milestone.
  6. Demonstrate a positive attitude, collaborative spirit, and consistent availability that contributes to effective teamwork, client satisfaction, and successful project delivery.
RESPONSIBILITIES
  1. Prepare roofing and building envelope design documents, including scopes of work, technical specifications, bid packages, drawings, construction details, and supporting reports.
  2. Evaluate roof and building envelope conditions through inspections, assessments, surveys, and technical analysis to support design recommendations.
  3. Develop repair, restoration, maintenance, and replacement solutions that align with client objectives, existing conditions, budgets, and industry standards.
  4. Prepare project cost estimates for roofing and building envelope work across individual facilities and multi-building portfolios.
  5. Manage multiple design assessments simultaneously, prioritizing workload and delivering completed documents within established deadlines.
  6. Coordinate with clients, contractors, architects, engineers, consultants, and internal teams to gather project requirements and resolve design-related issues.
  7. Present design recommendations, project scope, and technical requirements during client meetings, pre-bid meetings, and project coordination meetings.
  8. Maintain accurate project records, schedules, design files, reports, and documentation within company systems and established processes.
  9. Review design documents and project information for accuracy, completeness, constructability, and compliance with company standards and client requirements.
  10. Identify and communicate project risks, quality concerns, safety considerations, and technical issues that may impact project outcomes or delivery timelines.
QUALIFICATIONS
Minimum Qualifications
  1. Minimum of 8 years of commercial roofing, roof design, building envelope, construction documentation, estimating, specification writing, or closely related experience.
  2. Strong working knowledge of commercial roofing systems, building envelope conditions, roof assessments, repair/restoration/replacement options, and related industry standards.
  3. Experience preparing scopes of work, technical specifications, bid documents, cost estimates, drawings, construction details, reports, or similar project documentation.
  4. Ability to manage multiple active design requests, project deadlines, stakeholders, and documentation requirements at the same time.
Preferred Qualifications
  1. Bachelor's degree in architecture, engineering, construction management, or a related field.
  2. Registered Roof Consultant (RRC), Registered Roof Observer (RRO), or related roofing/building envelope certification.
  3. Experience using design, specification, estimating, or documentation tools such as SpecLink, AutoCAD, Bluebeam, Revit, Procore, or similar systems.
  4. Experience supporting client-facing project delivery or multi-building portfolio projects.
WORKING CONDITIONS/PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS
  1. Work environment: Work is performed in a combination of office, remote, client-site, and field environments. The role regularly requires visits to commercial buildings and active project sites to support inspections, assessments, design development, and project coordination. Field work may involve exposure to varying weather conditions, including heat, cold, rain, wind, humidity, and direct sunlight.
  2. Physical requirements: The role requires the ability to sit for extended periods of time while performing computer-based work and to stand, walk, bend, stoop, kneel, reach, and climb when conducting field observations. Site visits may require accessing roofs by stairs, ladders, roof hatches, or other approved means of access and traversing uneven surfaces. The role requires visual observation of building conditions, use of computers and mobile devices, and the ability to occasionally lift and carry materials or equipment weighing up to 30 pounds.
  3. Travel requirements: Travel is required to client sites, project locations, meetings, and company events. Travel may be local or overnight and is expected to be up to 25% of working time, depending on project assignments and business needs.
  4. Schedule expectations: Work is generally performed during standard business hours; however, occasional early morning, evening, or extended hours may be required to meet project deadlines, accommodate client schedules, conduct site visits, or support business needs.
$95,000 - $120,000 a year
