Build the Infrastructure That Connects Communities

QOS Fiber is seeking an experienced Fiber Optic Cable Plow Operator to join our growing underground utility construction team in Pulaski, Wisconsin. This is an opportunity to build a long-term career while helping install the fiber-optic infrastructure that connects homes, businesses, and communities across the region.

QOS Fiber is a veteran-friendly employer committed to safety, quality, teamwork, and professional development. We provide modern equipment, stable year-round employment, paid training, competitive benefits, and opportunities for employees to advance as our company grows.

Position Summary

The Cable Plow Operator is responsible for safely operating vibratory cable plows and other heavy construction equipment to install underground fiber-optic conduit, microduct, cable, and telecommunications infrastructure. The operator works closely with foremen, utility locators, equipment operators, and ground crews to complete projects safely, efficiently, and according to customer specifications.

Daily responsibilities include following marked utility routes and project plans, protecting existing underground utilities, performing equipment inspections, identifying routine maintenance needs, and maintaining a safe and organized jobsite. The operator must consistently meet production and quality expectations while following company, customer, and industry safety standards.

A CDL is preferred but not required. QOS Fiber provides CDL training assistance for qualified employees and offers additional pay to CDL holders.

Compensation and Benefits

QOS Fiber offers competitive pay of $25–$35 per hour based on experience, along with a $2,000 sign-on bonus. Employees may also receive additional compensation for holding a CDL.

Our benefits package includes medical, dental, vision, and life insurance; short-term and long-term disability coverage; paid holidays and vacation; and a 401(k) plan with company match. We also provide paid on-the-job training, CDL training assistance, career advancement opportunities, and stable, year-round employment.
