  • Valid Class A CDL with acceptable driving record for the past 39 months.

  • Experience completing E-Logs, driver inspection reports, and DOT documentation.
  • Mechanically inclined with the ability to perform basic repairs and identify equipment issues.
  • Ability and willingness to be trained on the operation of various construction equipment.
  • Flexible schedule, including overtime, weekends, nights, emergency call-outs, and changing project assignments.
  • Willingness to travel for both short-term and long-term out-of-town assignments (hotel accommodations provided).
  • Strong commitment to safety, professionalism, and teamwork.
