  • Use hydraulic tools, welding equipment, cutting torches, electrical tools, and common hand tools to complete assigned work.
  • Monitor vehicles and machinery for safe operation and readiness, performing minor servicing and documenting maintenance activities.
  • Refer complex mechanical problems to the appropriate shop supervisor or foreman.
  • Reload equipment and materials after assignments, assist with site cleanup, restock vehicles and equipment, and organize supplies and scrap materials at the home base.
  • Complete required safety training and preventive maintenance tasks during periods without emergency callouts.
  • Maintain clean, organized work areas and follow all applicable safety procedures.
  • Assist other field teams or departments when needed to support operational requirements.

Required Qualifications

  • Valid Class A Commercial Driver's License (CDL-A) with a good driving record.
  • Experience in construction labor or a comparable physically demanding position.
  • Ability to perform physical fieldwork and safely handle equipment and materials.
  • Willingness to operate heavy machinery when qualified and trained.
  • Ability to follow DOT requirements, safety procedures, and equipment operating guidelines.
  • Availability for 24/7 emergency response, including nights, weekends, and holidays.
  • Ability to work extended shifts and accommodate unpredictable schedules.
  • Willingness to complete required qualification tests, training, and safety programs.

Preferred Experience

  • Three or more years of heavy equipment operating experience, or an equivalent combination of training and experience.
  • Experience operating backhoes, bulldozers, excavators, front-end loaders, grapple trucks, rail-bound equipment, tractors, and skid-steer loaders.
  • Familiarity with load adjustment, load transfer, railroad recovery, track maintenance, or construction operations.
  • Basic mechanical maintenance and equipment servicing experience.

Schedule and Compensation

  • Guaranteed 40 hours per week, with significant overtime opportunities.
  • Typical workweeks average 60+ hours and may reach 70 hours, depending on operational demands.
  • Hours worked outside the Monday–Friday, 7:00 AM–4:00 PM schedule are paid at the applicable overtime rate of time and a half, subject to the employer's overtime policy and applicable law.
  • Additional compensation may include per diem, hotel pay for travel, and layover pay when applicable.
  • Employees must remain available for emergency assignments throughout the week, including weekends and holidays.

Benefits

  • Full benefits package.
  • Opportunities to gain experience across load adjustment, railroad recovery, track work, and heavy equipment operations.
  • Equipment training and preventive maintenance experience during non-emergency periods.

  • Successful completion of a pre-employment drug screening.
  • Successful completion of a background check.
