  • Round Rock, TX

Job Description

We’re looking for a highly skilled Construction Estimator with a minimum of 5 years of experience in public works or K–12 construction. If you’re currently working as an estimator and are looking for a high-autonomy role where your numbers drive real outcomes — we want to talk to you!

Help us create a better place for students and our community - playgrounds, sports and CTE complexes, and other public works projects.

Important: Please do not apply unless you’re currently working as an estimator and have 5+ years of direct experience.

What You’ll Do:

- Own estimates from concept through subcontractor buyout.

- Build competitive lump sum and negotiated bids for school, municipal, and specialty site projects.

- Work closely with architects, owners, and PMs to ensure precise scopes and pricing.

- Assemble proposal packages, instructions to bidders, clarifications, and bid tabs.

- Lead subcontractor outreach and recruiting, evaluations, and pricing strategy.

- Help us win smart, profitable work — and avoid the junk.

You Should Have:

- 5+ years of experience estimating construction projects (ideally in the public or education sector)

- Proficiency with takeoff software (Bluebeam), Microsoft Excel, and estimating platforms (RS Means)

- Experience leading estimating efforts — not just assisting.

- Strong understanding of unit pricing, value engineering, and bid strategy.

- Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

Why KYA?

- We’re one of the fastest-growing public works contractors in Texas.

- We specialize in playgrounds, turf, track, flooring, and turnkey sports and CTE projects.

- You’ll work alongside people who are serious about quality and accountability — but still human.

- Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) – you’re not just an employee, you’re an owner.

- Competitive salary, full benefits, and opportunity to grow with the company location.

Must be based in Austin, Texas
