  • Storm Water Management: Inspect, clear, and maintain storm water systems, including catch basins, culverts, drainage ditches, and retention structures.

  • Equipment Management: Operate and supervise the operation of heavy municipal equipment (e.g., backhoes, loaders, excavators, dump trucks) safely and effectively; ensure routine pre/post-operation equipment checks are performed.

  • Safety & Compliance: Enforce OSHA and departmental safety guidelines, hold toolbox safety talks, and ensure proper PPE usage on all job sites.

Minimum Qualifications

  • High School Diploma or GED equivalent.

  • 3+ years of progressive experience in public works, highway maintenance, heavy civil construction, or a related field.

  • Proven familiarity with creating, completing, and submitting work orders via electronic systems or mobile apps.

  • 1+ years in a supervisory, crew lead, or foreman role.

  • Direct experience operating heavy construction and earthmoving equipment.

  • Prior experience with municipal storm water maintenance, drainage infrastructure, or erosion control measures.
