  • Utility Installation & Testing: Oversee deep underground utility installations (storm, sanitary, water main) and execute required field testing (air, mandrel, or pressure tests).
  • Equipment Support: Support backfill and material handling by occasionally operating small wheel loaders and end-dump haul trucks as needed.
  • Safety & Daily Logs: Maintain strict OSHA trench safety protocols, perform daily site safety inspections, and complete accurate daily production logs.
Candidate Requirements
  • Experience: 5+ years preferred in underground utility pipe laying, with 2+ years leading crews or acting as a working foreman.
  • Technical Skills: Proficient in reading civil blueprints, running utility acceptance tests, and operating pipe lasers, line transfer units, and GPS rovers.
  • Equipment Ability: Hands-on experience operating small loaders and end-dump trucks preferred.
  • Certifications: OSHA 10 required (OSHA 30 preferred) and a valid Driver's License.
