Ep 9: Shaped by the Jobsite: Marielle Price on Leading Construction Tech with Field-Level Insight

Marielle Price didn’t grow up in a construction family, but after studying civil engineering and sustainable design at Stanford, she fell in love with the problem-solving, team-based nature of construction. After 7+ years in the field managing multimillion-dollar projects, Marielle made the leap into construction tech, joining Fieldwire (now Fieldwire by Hilti) as one of its first employees. As VP of Go-To-Market, she shares how her experience in traditional construction shaped her work in tech, what makes construction a uniquely human industry, and how software tools are helping builders focus less on paperwork and more on what matters – getting things built.

In this interview we cover:

> Her path from civil engineering to construction

> Transitioning from traditional construction into construction tech

> Software unlocking productivity & AI's role in construction

> Culture shifts needed to attract talent

> Marielle's experience as a new mom navigating a male-dominated workplace

> Advice to the next generation and why going to trade school is a great option
