Construction Specialist at Handoff We’re hiring a Construction Specialist to own the quality of blueprint-based estimates delivered to our enterprise customers. In this role you’ll ensure that takeoffs, scopes, and material/SKU matching meet customer-specific standards and can be executed quickly and accurately in the field. This role is ideal for someone with strong residential construction and estimating experience who wants to move beyond the field and into a product-driven environment—where your expertise directly shapes how AI understands construction, materials, and real-world workflows. If you’ve been in the field and know what a “good estimate” really looks like—and you’re excited to help train AI to think the same way—you’ll have an outsized impact here.
