As a Piping & Installation Helper at Dandelion Energy, you'll support our Ground Loop Commissioning (GLC) operations by installing and fusing HDPE piping, pressure testing, system flushing/filling, and preparing loops for commissioning. You'll work directly under our Ground Loop Commissioning Lead on active job sites, gaining hands-on training in fusion, equipment operation, and geothermal ground loop installation. This is an outdoor, field-based role where you'll build the technical foundation for a career in renewable energy construction - no geothermal experience required.

• Perform basic equipment checks and general labor tasks on job sites

• Drive company vehicles to/from job sites (requires valid driver's license and safe driving record)

• Learn to operate heavy equipment (mini-excavators, skid steers, grout pumps) as you advance

You Will Thrive in This Role If You Have:

• A strong work ethic and excitement to learn hands-on technical skills

• Comfort working outdoors year-round and doing physical, demanding work

• Adaptability - assignments and tasks can shift frequently

• Attention to detail and pride in high-quality, safe work

• A team-first, mission-driven mindset and eagerness to support coworkers

Must-Haves

• Valid driver's license with a safe driving record that meets company insurance requirements; CDL is a plus

• Background in plumbing, pipefitting, or mechanical construction preferred

• Personal vehicle and ability/willingness to drive to job sites within approximately 75 miles

• Ability to lift 50 lbs overhead and perform sustained physical labor in all weather conditions

• Positive attitude and readiness to learn new technical skills

Bonus Points For:

• Experience in construction, trenching, plumbing, drilling, or outdoor labor

• Mechanical, plumbing rigging, or welding experience

• Familiarity with heavy equipment (excavators, skid steers, forklifts)
