Title:

Equipment Operator (Track Saw)

We're looking for an Equipment Operator (Track Saw) to join our crew in Klamath Falls, OR. In this role, you'll primarily run a track saw while also operating a range of heavy equipment on our timberlands. It's work that plays a direct part in keeping our operations running safely and efficiently.

• Primarily operate a track saw as your main piece of equipment day-to-day
• Operate chipping and logging related heavy equipment in the field
• Follow all safety protocols and maintain a safe work environment
• Perform pre-shift inspections and basic equipment maintenance
• Communicate clearly with your crew and supervisor to keep operations moving
• Identify and report equipment issues or safety concerns promptly

We're looking for someone with at least one year of experience with a track saw who is comfortable behind the controls and takes equipment operation seriously. Experience with other heavy equipment is a plus, and a CDL is preferred but not required — what matters most is that you're reliable, safety-minded, and willing to be coachable. You should be comfortable working outdoors in varying conditions.

A strong work ethic and good communication go a long way here.
