Product Specialist - Construction Estimating at Handoff
We're hiring a Product Specialist with experience in Construction Estimating to be the bridge between our AI product and the real-world needs of remodelers, builders, and contractors. In this hands-on role, you'll apply your construction experience to help improve our AI estimates, support customers, and ensure that our tools actually work in the field.
This role is ideal for someone who has recently been in the trenches - estimating, managing residential projects, and working directly with clients - but now wants to transition into a tech-forward environment where your trade knowledge drives product development.
What you'll do
- Audit AI Estimates: Review AI-generated estimates and flag issues in pricing, scope, or logic based on real-world remodeling practices.
- Own Estimating Content: Help define and refine the scopes, cost libraries, and workflows that fuel our estimating engine.
- Triage & Troubleshoot: Be a front-line resource for customer support issues-resolving questions, spotting bugs, and escalating high-impact issues.
- Test & QA Features: Work with engineering and product teams to test new features, find bugs, and suggest improvements.
- Create Training Materials: Build help docs, internal guides, and video tutorials to empower both contractors and teammates.
- Coach New Customers: Help onboard contractors to Handoff-training them on the product and setting them up for success.
- Improve the AI Assistant: Review AI-chat transcripts, identify where conversations break down, and give feedback to improve clarity, accuracy, and usability.
- Collaborate Across Teams: Translate field expertise into actionable product insights, helping designers, PMs, and engineers build better tools.
- Champion the User Voice: Be a trusted advocate for contractors-ensuring we build with the customer's perspective front and center.
