About Ergeon
We are disrupting the trillion-dollar construction industry with technology, making it possible for almost any profession to operate remotely. Our company is the only startup combining the strengths of technology and remote work to solve the challenges of residential construction.
Unlike most other products and services, hiring a contractor for a home improvement project is very far from a 1-click experience today. Ergeon aims to empower skilled local contractors with human and technology-powered services to make home improvement easy. We take a full-stack approach to create a seamless experience for homeowners, and leverage technology to scale the front & back offices of contractors.
With the belief that everyone has a right to professional growth and respect regardless of their location, we proudly have staff (aka Ergeoneers) in dozens of countries, with a great score and recommendation rating on Glassdoor. Come join us to make construction friendly and accessible!
Ergeon: [er - g- eon]
Erg = unit of work or energy
Eon = billion years
Ergeon is founded by CS Ph.D. serial entrepreneurs Jiayue (Jenny) He and Odysseas Tstatalos. They picked this name to symbolize their joint passion for using tech to revolutionize work.
Overview of the Role
As a Field Estimator you are the key to allowing Ergeon to be a nimble and scalable company. The Field Estimator acts as an independent contractor using any camera phone to document the exterior landscape and gardens of each client’s home. You’ll need to sync the photos with Ergeon's system so the Ergeon team can get to work. The photos you take will be analyzed by our service professionals and used to build fence or driveway plans, detailed yard blueprints, and special project proposals. Your photos also foster strong communication with our clients if they have specific questions or requests.
As Field Estimator you’ll interface directly with clients at their homes, be the frontline user of our latest technology, and help craft operational direction as we scale our services. Are you a reliable, personable individual with a passion for delivering strong customer service? Join our team.
