Oil Rig Fly In Fly Out Jobs in Kansas City, KS (NOW HIRING)

You go back and fix the thing nobody would've caught.

Not because someone's watching. Because you'd know it was wrong, and that's enough. You've probably noticed most places don't reward that. Some quietly reward the opposite: pad the job and move on. If you've ever had to choose between doing it right and doing what the place wanted, you already know the kind of company you've been looking for.

This is it. Heartland is a small crew that fixes foundations the honest way. We tell homeowners the truth even when it costs us the job, and the number we quote is the number they pay. The foam work happens under a slab no inspector ever checks, so the care you bring isn't a bonus here; it's the work. You'd learn it at Cory's shoulder until we trust you to run the rig alone, and we're building, so the person we train now becomes the operator and the crew chief we need next.

What The Work Actually Looks Like

Let's be straight about it.

Foam is chemistry, and it can turn toxic in a hurry if you don't respect it. You'll work around fumes and hot material under pressure, in gear, paying attention every second. You'll back a 50-foot truck and trailer onto tight residential driveways without scratching $150,000 of equipment or a customer's property. You'll crawl into crawl spaces and basements, run crack injections and wall penetrations, and do the demo and finish work that puts a house back together, including sheetrock clean enough to pass in a Johnson County home. Between jobs, you'll keep the warehouse stocked and the rig maintained, because a stranded crew on a job site costs everyone.

And the part that matters most: a lot of this work is invisible once it's done. No inspector climbs down to check the injection. A family is trusting that whoever did it cared as much about whether it holds as they do.

If that's you, the kind who'd carry that trust the way it should be carried, and who's been waiting for a place that values it, keep going. If you already know it all, or you'd rather pad a job than level with a homeowner, you'll figure out fast this isn't your place.

Who Belongs Here

• Straight with everyone. You tell a customer the truth even when it talks them out of work, and you carry a problem to the person you have it with instead of to everyone else. The number we quote is the number they pay, and you protect that.

• No such thing as "not my job." You see what the work in front of you needs, and you do it. The trailer doesn't care whose name is on the task.

• Find the problem before the customer does. You hear a new noise in the rig, and you stop to find out what it is. You catch the thing while it's still cheap to fix.

• Do the work right. On the gun where no one can see the injection, you read it by sound, feel, and smell, and you test-shoot before a drop goes in the ground. That's the whole job.

• Treat the money like it's yours. You fix what can be fixed instead of replacing it, and you don't waste material. The business only works if it makes money, and a dollar saved reaches the people who earned it.

• Stay teachable. You came to learn a trade, not to defend the way you've always done it. That's the difference between someone who runs this rig in a year and someone who never gets handed the keys.

$20 - $25 hourly

• Back and set up the 50-foot truck and trailer on tight residential sites without damaging the equipment or the property

• Handle demo and finish work, including sheetrock clean enough to pass in a finished home

• Keep the warehouse stocked and the trucks loaded so no crew starts a day short

• Stay ahead of rig maintenance — oil, tires, fuel, generator, and compressor — and report a problem before it strands a crew

• Grow into a foam operator by earning trust on the gun, with zero callbacks

Required:
