Rail Operator

Geo Stabilization International (GSI), Access Limited, and Road Guard together form a leading infrastructure solutions platform dedicated to protecting people and strengthening critical infrastructure across North America and New Zealand.

GSI is the premier geohazard mitigation firm specializing in emergency slope stabilization, landslide repair, grouting, and micropiles through innovative design-build delivery. Access Limited brings over a century of steep-slope expertise and operates North America’s largest fleet of spider excavators, delivering complex rockfall and geotechnical solutions in the most challenging environments. Road Guard, founded in 2024, unites industry-leading roadway safety companies providing guardrail, bridge railing, highway signage, fencing, and specialty fabrication services.

Across all our businesses, we are driven by innovation, extreme ownership, technical excellence, and a relentless commitment to measurable results that improve safety and infrastructure resilience.

GSI is building out its Rail Infrastructure crews and is looking for experienced field technicians to join teams executing slope stabilization, geohazard mitigation, and emergency response projects on and adjacent to active railroad corridors across the U.S.

This is a field crew role — you'll be doing the work. If you've put in real hours on heavy civil, geotechnical, or railroad projects and you take pride in doing things right under pressure, we want to talk to you. Rail experience is a plus, and candidates with a background in active right-of-way or MOW environments will stand out. What we're looking for across all experience levels is a track record of hands-on field work, a genuine commitment to safety, and the drive to grow in a specialized trade.

We hire at multiple experience levels — from technicians building on a solid construction foundation to veterans ready to step into a lead role. Where you start depends on what you bring. Where you go from here depends on what you do with it.

Please note:

Due to the nature of working on active railroad corridors, all candidates must be able to pass an extensive background check as a condition of employment.

What You'll Do

As a Rail Infrastructure Technician, you'll work as part of a 4-6 person crew led by a Rail Infrastructure Superintendent on active and adjacent railroad corridor projects across the country.

• Install slope stabilization systems, soil nails, rock anchors, drainage solutions, shotcrete, and grouting to protect rail corridors from landslides, rockfall, scour, and embankment failure
• Execute daily safety plans alongside your Superintendent — you are an active participant in keeping your crew safe, not a passive one
• Operate and maintain equipment on active jobsites — proper care of tools and machinery is part of the job
• Support site organization, material handling, and jobsite logistics
• Assist with daily documentation including logs, photos, safety checklists, and compliance records
• Respond to emergency callouts — GSI deploys 24/7 and your crew will be part of that response network
• Learn from experienced Superintendents and Senior Technicians — GSI builds people, not just projects

What Your Background Gives You

Experience in the field translates directly to this work:

• Heavy civil or construction labor experience means you understand jobsite safety, physical demands, equipment awareness, and working as part of a crew under a schedule
• Geotechnical construction experience — drilling, shoring, anchoring, grouting, or shotcrete — means you'll be productive quickly and can grow into senior technical responsibilities fast
• Railroad or MOW experience means you understand active right-of-way, Roadway Worker Protection, and the discipline required to work…
