  • Operate heavy equipment when needed to assist with loading, unloading, and staging.
  • Maintain organization and inventory within the pipeyard and equipment storage areas.
  • Assist field crews with transportation logistics and equipment movement.
  • Train and support team members on proper load securement, blocking, bracing, spotting, and equipment handling procedures.
  • Communicate professionally with dispatchers, project managers, equipment operators, and customers.
  • Maintain company equipment in clean, safe, and serviceable condition.
Required Qualifications
  • Valid Class A CDL with Tanker Endorsement.
  • Minimum of 3 years of CDL driving experience.

  • Strong knowledge of DOT regulations, inspections, permits, logbooks, and hours-of-service requirements.
  • Experience with load securement and transportation safety practices.
  • Ability to safely load, unload, and transport heavy equipment.
  • Strong commitment to safety, professionalism, and equipment care.
  • Ability to work independently and make sound decisions in the field.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience operating excavators, backhoes, skid steers, loaders, forklifts, or similar construction equipment.
  • Experience in utility construction, underground construction, heavy civil construction, or transportation industries.
  • Knowledge of oversized and overweight load permitting processes.
  • Experience with electronic logging devices (ELDs) and digital documentation systems.
  • Previous heavy-haul, lowboy, or construction trucking experience.
  • Strong communication and teamwork skills.
What We're Looking For
