  • Coordinate with the Field Supervisor to schedule personnel and allocate pumps, pipelines, tanks, and other resources to meet project requirements.
  • Inspect, maintain, and troubleshoot company-owned and rented equipment; complete preventive maintenance and required maintenance records to minimize downtime.
  • Track equipment usage, storage volumes, transferred quantities, and material inventory accurately.

Client Communication, Automation & Reporting

  • Maintain professional, consistent communication with clients, project managers, and supervisors.
  • Address client questions and concerns promptly, escalate issues when appropriate, and communicate job status, risks, and resource needs clearly.
  • Verify that H2Optics meters, sensors, and connectivity are functioning properly and that live field data is recorded and available to the client and Water Way Solutions operations leadership.
  • Prepare and submit accurate daily and project reports covering progress, water volumes, equipment usage, maintenance, downtime, and safety events.

Required Qualifications

  • At least two years of water transfer leadership experience.
  • Hands-on experience with pump setup and operation, pipeline installation, tank monitoring, flow measurement, and basic equipment troubleshooting.
  • Valid driver’s license and a clean motor vehicle record for the preceding three years.

  • Reliable transportation to and from company facilities or designated mobilization points.
  • Ability to successfully complete required pre-employment screening, including a drug screen and background check.
  • Legally authorized to work in the United States.
  • Ability to travel, including by air, and work at remote project locations for the full four-week rotation; operational needs may occasionally require a longer stay.
  • Ability to perform physically demanding field work outdoors in varying weather and terrain, while safely handling hoses, piping, tools, and related equipment.
  • Dependable, punctual, focused, team-oriented, and able to communicate effectively with crew members, supervisors, and clients.
