Estimator

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: Use

for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must not repeat job title as heading. We must include sections only when posting has real specific content. We need to parse the posting. Location: Remote or Hybrid Employment Type: Salaried Schedule: Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Position Overview: paragraph. Key Responsibilities: list of bullet points. Experience Qualifications and Requirements: paragraph. Work Setup: paragraph. Technical Proficiency: paragraph. Excel Skills: paragraph. Attention to Detail: paragraph. Work Expectations and Production Targets: includes Bid Output Target, Working Hours, Deadline Management. Compensation: includes What We Offer, Health and Medical Coverage, Paid Time Off and Holidays, Remote or Hybrid Work Setup, Hardware and Equipment, Local Site and Office Engagement. How To Apply: we must remove application instructions (per rule). So we drop that section. We also need to drop cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Not present. We need to preserve all substantive info. We need to decide which sections to output. We have schedule info: Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. That's schedule. So we can have a

Schedule

with

Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.

Pay: The posting says "competitive annual salary commensurate with experience." That's vague, not a specific number. The rule says: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Since the posting says "competitive annual salary commensurate with experience." That's placeholder-ish; it's not a specific number. According to rule, we should not create Pay section because it's just "commensurate with experience". So we omit Pay. Benefits: The posting lists health and medical coverage, paid time off and holidays, remote/hybrid work setup, hardware and equipment, local site/office engagement. Those are substantive benefits. So we can have Benefits section with a

• for each. We also have About the role (Position Overview). That's a section. Responsibilities: Key Responsibilities. Requirements: Experience Qualifications and Requirements plus Work Setup? Actually Work Setup could be part of Requirements or separate. But we can combine under Requirements or Qualifications. The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to map content to these headings. We have: - About the role: Position Overview paragraph. - Responsibilities: Key Responsibilities list. - Requirements: Experience Qualifications and Requirements (3-6 years experience, masonry preferred) plus Work Setup (self-motivated, remote/hybrid, reliable internet) plus maybe Technical Proficiency? Actually Technical Proficiency could be Skills. Excel Skills also Skills. Attention to Detail could be Skills or Requirements. We'll need to decide. We have Qualifications heading maybe for education? Not present. Could combine Requirements and Qualifications? But we need to follow instruction: Use headings for those categories if content exists. We can have Requirements (experience, work setup) and Qualifications (maybe none). Better to have Requirements covering experience and work setup, and Skills covering technical proficiency, Excel, attention to detail. Thus:

  About the role

  Position Overview paragraph.

  Responsibilities

  • ... each bullet.

  Requirements

  • 3-6 years experience in construction estimating, quantity takeoffs, or architectural plan reading.
  • Experience in masonry, stucco, or civil structural construction preferred.
  • Self-motivated and equipped to work efficiently in a remote or hybrid environment with reliable internet connectivity and communication tools.

  Skills

  • Experience with three‑dimensional digital takeoff software (e.g., Tradesmen's Software, Onscreen 3D Estimator).
  • Experience with two‑dimensional PDF takeoff software (e.g., Bluebeam Revu, TradeTek, EDGE, PlanSwift).
  • Ability to visualize three‑dimensional masonry assemblies from two‑dimensional plan sets.
  • Strong proficiency in Microsoft Excel for data entry, formula calculations, and bid‑sheet formatting.
  • Ability to identify discrepancies between architectural and structural plans, missing scope details, and project specifications.

  Benefits

  • Competitive annual salary commensurate with experience (but we said not to create Pay; but we can mention salary as part of benefits? The rule says never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. Benefits section is allowed if posting states benefits. It does state health insurance, PTO, holidays, remote/hybrid work setup, equipment provided, local site/office engagement. So we can list those. Salary mention is vague; we could omit it or include as part of benefits but risk being placeholder. Safer to omit salary line.
  • Employee medical insurance provided.
  • Paid time off accrued throughout the year; standard paid company holidays.
  • Flexible remote‑first work model with equipment provided.
  • Complete workstation setup: high‑performance laptop, dual monitors, dedicated plan and document printer.
  • Occasional local travel required (≈ once per month) for team meetings, site visits, preconstruction walkthroughs, field verifications, sample deliveries/pickups.

  Schedule

  Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.

  We must not include How To Apply. Check for any duplicated lines: we have not repeated. Check for any filler: Benefits list includes concrete items; no placeholder like "commensurate with experience" except we omitted salary line. Good. Check for any missing substantive info: We missed "Work Expectations and Production Targets": Bid Output Target (three accurate bid packages per week), Working Hours (already covered in Schedule), Deadline Management (thrive in deadline-driven environment while maintaining accuracy). We should include those under Requirements or maybe a separate section like Expectations? But we only have allowed headings; we could incorporate into Requirements or Skills. Perhaps add to Requirements: ability to maintain steady production pace of three accurate bid packages per week; thrive in deadline-driven preconstruction environment while maintaining high accuracy. Or we could add a separate section like "Expectations" but not allowed. So we add to Requirements. Also we missed "Active availability is required during these hours for real-time team communication, site coordination, and contractor inquiries." That's covered by schedule/hours. We missed "Work Expectations and Production Targets" bullet about Bid Output Target and Deadline Management. Add to Requirements. Also we missed "Working Hours Standard working hours are 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM." Already schedule. We missed "Deadline Management Candidates must thrive in a deadline-driven preconstruction environment while maintaining a high level of accuracy and attention to detail." Add to Requirements. We missed "Attention to Detail Candidates must be able to identify discrepancies between architectural and structural plans, missing scope details, and project specifications." Already in Skills. We missed "Work Setup Candidates must be self-motivated and equipped to work efficiently in a remote or hybrid environment with reliable internet connectivity and communication tools." Already in Requirements. We missed "Technical Proficiency Experience with three-dimensional digital takeoff software, such as Tradesmen's Software or Onscreen 3D Estimator, is required. Experience with two-dimensional PDF takeoff software, such as Bluebeam Revu, TradeTek, EDGE, or PlanSwift, is required. Candidates must be able to visualize three-dimensional masonry assemblies, including concrete masonry units, bond beams, openings, and lintels, directly from two-dimensional plan sets." Already in Skills. We missed "Excel Skills Strong proficiency in Microsoft Excel for data entry, formula calculations, and bid-sheet formatting is required." Already in Skills. We missed "Compensation What We Offer The position offers a competitive annual salary commensurate with experience." We omitted salary line; but we might still include a generic note about compensation being competitive? The rule says never create Pay section unless posting actually states them. It does state "competitive annual salary commensurate with experience." That's still vague but it's a statement. However the rule says never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state it, but it's placeholder. The instruction says never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. So if we create a Pay section with that sentence, it's filler. So better to omit Pay section entirely. The benefits section can still exist. We missed "Health and Medical Coverage Employee medical insurance is provided." Already in Benefits. We missed "Paid Time Off and Holidays Paid time off is accrued throughout the year. Employees also receive standard paid company holidays." Already. We missed "Remote or Hybrid Work Setup The position offers a flexible, remote-first work model with equipment provided." Already. We missed "Hardware and Equipment A complete workstation setup is provided. The workstation includes a high-performance laptop, dual monitors, and a dedicated plan and document printer." Already. We missed "Local Site and Office Engagement Occasional local travel is required, typically once per month. Travel may include in-person team meetings, construction site visits, preconstruction walkthroughs, field verifications, and sample deliveries or pickups." Already. We missed "How To Apply" which we drop. Now ensure we didn't miss any bullet from Key Responsibilities: List: - Perform accurate material takeoffs for concrete masonry units, brick, stone veneer, stucco, retaining walls, and associated reinforcing accessories using digital takeoff software. - Assist in building complete cost estimates that account for material waste, labor production rates, equipment rentals, and scaffolding requirements. - Request, compare, and organize material quotes from suppliers and subcontractors to ensure competitive pricing. - Review incoming bid sets, addenda, and requests for information to ensure project estimates accurately reflect the latest scopes and specifications. - Draft bid proposals, scope clarifications, and cost breakdowns for review by the Head of Preconstruction before submission to general contractors.
