We self-perform heavy civil scopes including underground, foundations, and restoration, delivering inspection-ready work safely, efficiently, and to spec. A significant portion of our work is prevailing wage public and utility projects.

This is a high-level hybrid operator role, not a seat-only position.

You will operate equipment regularly. When equipment is not required, you will remain fully utilized assisting the civil crew, supporting field logistics, pre-fab delivery and installation, and other production‑critical tasks.

If you’re only interested in sitting in a machine and waiting when it’s parked, this role is not a fit.

• Trenching, foundations, equipment pads, and underground utility work
• Maintain grade and subgrade; execute clean, production‑focused excavation
• Work safely around live utilities
• Support civil crews, logistics, staging, and restoration when not operating
• Tow equipment and trailers as needed (CDL strongly preferred)
• Opportunity to train on asphalt restoration and paving equipment

• 5+ years civil / underground utility equipment experience
• Strong grade control (laser/receiver/level)
• Proven experience working around live utilities
• Willing to support crew when not operating equipment
  Valid CDL Class A with towing experience
• Must be based in San Diego County
• Professional, reliable, safety‑first

Prevailing wage experience; asphalt/restoration experience or willingness to learn

• $45/hr DOE
• Overtime opportunities
• Prevailing wage project exposure
• 100% paid health insurance (employee + spouse + two dependents)
• 401(k) with company match
• 4 weeks PTO
• Company truck & phone
