Job Description

This is a hands-on estimating role in a large-scale sign fabrication environment handling iconic branding projects for major national QSR and restaurant brands including Dunkin', Primo Hoagies, Taco Bell, Burger King, Dave's Hot Chicken, and Papa Johns. The estimator is the bridge between conceptual design and physical landmark—dissecting complex construction plans, determining efficient fabrication methods, and generating precise Bills of Materials (BOM) to ensure projects are profitable, durable, and field-ready. Department: Estimating / Pre-Construction Reports To: Director of Operations / Project Management Experience Level: 5+ years estimating specifically within signage, exhibit, or architectural metal fabrication industries

Job Responsibility

  • Reading and interpreting architectural blueprints, site plans, and structural drawings for large-scale interior and exterior signage packages
  • Creating comprehensive Bills of Materials (BOM) including substrates (aluminum, acrylic, steel), lighting components (LEDs, power supplies), and hardware
  • Evaluating site conditions for installation requirements (crane access, footing depths, mounting hardware) to accurately quote labor hours and equipment rentals
  • Maintaining current knowledge of raw material market fluctuations to reflect current costs and company-mandated markups
  • Value engineering—identifying cost reductions through alternative materials or fabrication methods without compromising design intent or structural integrity
  • Cross-departmental collaboration with Production, Engineering, and Sales teams to verify buildability and finalize competitive bids

Requirements

  • Expert ability to read and interpret construction documents, shop drawings, and engineering specifications
  • Deep understanding of sign installation processes including UL requirements, masonry, welding, and electrical connections
  • Strong mathematical proficiency for calculating square footage, material yields, and complex markups
  • Software proficiency with ERP/Estimating tools (e.g., CoreBridge, SignTracker, Cyrious), Excel, and ideally CAD or Adobe Illustrator
  • Precision mindset: understanding that a 1/8" error in a material calc can lead to a $10,000 mistake in a large-scale rollout
  • Foresight: ability to "see" the installation happening from a 2D drawing and account for hidden costs (permits, traffic control, specialized brackets)
  • Clear communication of technical constraints to non-technical stakeholders
  • Experience with multi-unit national brand rollouts is highly valued—the ability to estimate at scale across dozens or hundreds of locations while maintaining consistency and accuracy
  • 5+ years estimating specifically within signage, exhibit, or architectural metal fabrication industries

  • Competitive salary
  • Free uniforms
  • Opportunity for advancement
