Electrical Estimator_vConstruct_Pune

Virtual Builder business unit at vConstruct leverages best-in-class tools, advanced VDC methods, in-house automation solutions, and emerging AI/ML techniques to develop value-adding solutions in construction projects for Planning, Estimating, Project Management, Prefabrication, and Construction Engineering.

Electrical Estimator plays a pivotal role in our Estimating Function not only ensuring high-quality project delivery but also proactively help deepen the system understanding and developing expertise to grow ourselves deeper.

This role offers opportunities for deepening and developing technical skills in construction technology, gaining experience in team and stakeholder management.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop accurate quantity takeoffs and estimates for electrical scopes as per CSI Uniformat/Master Format coding, leveraging drawings, specifications, and 3D models.

• Quantify a range of electrical trade packages, including:

• Medium & Low Voltage Power Distribution

• Lighting and Lighting Controls
• Low Voltage Systems (Data/Communications, Security, Audio-Visual, Fire Alarm, BMS, etc.)

• Generator and UPS Systems

• Study project drawings, RFIs, models, and specifications to identify scope gaps, missing details, and discrepancies.

• Leverage 3D models (Revit or similar) for quantification and comparison across design versions.
• Develop 3D models from 2D design drawings to augment the estimating process when required.
• Understand conceptual-level electrical design and provide early-stage estimates when details are limited.
• Identify and clearly communicate scope changes between design iterations.
• Collaborate with international project teams (USA and other geographies) through emails and virtual meetings to align on deliverables.
• Document workflows, develop execution plans, and train team members on new processes, tools, or scopes.
• Build and maintain strong working relationships with onsite teams, customers, and colleagues at vConstruct.
• Continuously learn and expand expertise into other construction estimating areas while maintaining core focus on electrical systems.
• Across scope Coordination & across team collaboration.
• Manage multiple projects efficiently, prioritize tasks, and consistently meet deadlines in fast-paced environments.

Requirements and Qualifications

• Bachelors or Masters degree in Electrical Engineering (specialization in Quantity Surveying preferred).
• 2+ years of experience in building construction with focus on electrical estimating/quantification.
• Familiarity with electrical construction documents and terminologies (US, European, or Indian standards).
• Hands-on knowledge of quantification/estimating software such as Revit, Assemble, CostX, OST, Planswift, or equivalent.
• Strong skills in Microsoft Excel or other estimation tools.
• Ability to interpret electrical single-line diagrams, load schedules, panel schedules, and lighting layouts.
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills with the ability to work across global teams.
• Proactive and detail-oriented with a can-do attitude and ability to work independently.
• Professional certifications such as RICS, AACE, or equivalent are preferred but not mandatory.
