A well‑established U.S.‑based renewable energy developer and owner‑operator is seeking a Senior Estimator to help build and lead its estimating function. The platform develops, finances, constructs, owns, and operates distributed solar projects nationwide, with a core focus on community solar, commercial, and institutional installations.
This is a build‑from‑the‑ground‑up opportunity for a senior‑level estimator who enjoys acting as a player‑coach.

Design and implement estimating processes, tools, and best practices within a growing EPC platform that currently has no estimators in‑seat
Support internal projects as well as select third‑party developer work, with responsibilities flexing based on pipeline and workload
Contribute technical insight across distributed generation and select utility‑scale projects; BESS experience is a strong plus
