Project Engineer/Estimator
Posted: 08/24/2026Bloomsdale Excavating is hiring an experienced Project Engineer/Estimator to help turn plans, specifications, and opportunities into successful projects.
This is not a position built around pushing paperwork from one desk to another. It is a key role connecting estimating, project management, and field operations—from the first takeoff and bid review through construction and project closeout.
You will review plans and specifications, perform quantity takeoffs, develop cost estimates, evaluate subcontractor and supplier pricing, and assist with bid preparation. Once a project is awarded, you will help track costs, quantities, schedules, submittals, and documentation while supporting our project managers and field leadership.
You will also work directly with owners, general contractors, engineers, vendors, and internal teams to identify risks, solve problems, and help create a smooth transition from estimating to operations.
We are looking for someone who:
Has experience in civil construction, estimating, project engineering, or project management.
Can confidently read and interpret construction plans and specifications.
Is organized, analytical, accountable, and detail-oriented.
Communicates well with both field and office teams.
Is comfortable identifying problems and helping develop practical solutions.
Has a degree in civil engineering, construction management, or a related field—or equivalent construction experience.
Is proficient with Microsoft Office and comfortable learning construction-related software.
Bloomsdale Excavating is a fourth-generation, 100% employee-owned civil construction company founded in 1946.
Our teams perform mass excavation, grading, underground utilities, drilling and blasting, crushing, and site development throughout Missouri and the surrounding Midwest.
We have built our reputation by approaching challenging work with strong field experience, attention to detail, and professional project management.
Our core values guide how we work:

Have a Positive Attitude.
?Figure It Out.
Location: Omaha, NE - Minimal travel required
