Roberto Gutierrez

Roberto Gutierrez, CPA, is Managing Partner at Jackson Builders, a Nashville, Tennessee residential builder responsible for $200M+ in completed projects spanning custom single-family, attainable infill, and small-format multifamily. He brings a rare combination to the building industry: a CPA's discipline around financial systems, a managing partner's accountability for project P&L, and an active practitioner's experience deploying AI tools inside his own estimating and job costing workflows. Under Roberto's leadership, Jackson Builders has secured $50M in new contracts in the past year, anchored by an estimating and job costing system designed to scale. Roberto presented at IBS 2026 in the Project Management track ('Take Control of Project Costs! Practical Cost & Change Order Management Strategies') and is returning in 2027 with a new session focused on the foundation that has to exist before AI estimating tools can deliver real value. He shares behind-the-scenes builder content on YouTube (@JacksonBuildersNashville) and Instagram, and is active in the Nashville home building community. Roberto's CPA credential brings a financial-controls lens to a stage that often leans purely operational, making him uniquely qualified to evaluate ROI on construction technology investments and to help builders separate hype from impact in the AI estimating space.
