  • Establish and maintain proper grades and elevations
  • Work safely around existing utilities, structures, employees, subcontractors, and occupied properties

  • CDL is a plus, but not required unless otherwise specified
  • Reliable, punctual, safety-conscious, and able to work as part of a professional construction team
What We're Looking For
We are looking for an operator who understands site work—not simply someone who can run a machine.
The right candidate should be able to look at a project, understand what needs to be accomplished, maintain proper grades, work efficiently, protect the equipment, and produce professional results without requiring constant supervision.
We value employees who take ownership of their work, maintain equipment properly, communicate with the project team, and are willing to help wherever needed to keep a project moving.

Position: Excavator / Heavy Equipment Operator
Experience Level: Experienced
Company: Neri Building & Development
