About the Role
We're looking for a detail-oriented Underground Utility Locator to identify and mark the location of buried utility lines — including gas, electric, water, sewer, and telecommunications — ahead of excavation, construction, and maintenance projects. This role plays a critical part in public safety and damage prevention, ensuring crews and the public are protected from utility strikes.

Key Responsibilities

• Respond to and complete utility locate tickets (e.g., 811/One-Call requests) within required timeframes
• Use electromagnetic (EM) locating equipment and/or ground-penetrating radar (GPR) to detect and trace underground utility lines
• Accurately mark utility locations using industry-standard paint colors and flags (per APWA color code)
• Interpret utility maps, as-built drawings, and GIS data to verify findings
• Document completed locates with photos, GPS coordinates, and detailed notes
• Communicate with excavators, contractors, and property owners on-site
• Identify and report discrepancies between utility records and field conditions
• Maintain and calibrate locating equipment
• Follow all safety protocols, including traffic control and PPE requirements
• Work outdoors in varying weather conditions, often independently

Qualifications

• High school diploma or equivalent required
• Valid driver's license with clean driving record
• Prior utility locating, construction, surveying, or damage prevention experience preferred (not always required — many companies train)
• Ability to read basic maps/blueprints and use handheld GPS/tablet devices
• Strong attention to detail and ability to work independently
• Physical ability to walk long distances, bend, kneel, and work outdoors in all weather
• NULCA or state-specific locator certification a plus (or willingness to obtain)

Preferred Skills

• Familiarity with EM locating equipment (Ridgid, Vivax-Metrotech, Radiodetection, etc.)
• Experience with GPR equipment
• Basic understanding of utility infrastructure (gas, electric, telecom, water/sewer)

What We Offer:

• Competitive salary and benefits package.
• Medical, Dental, Vision, Long Term Disability, Short Term Disability and Voluntary Buy Up of Life Insurance
• Paid time off
• Parental Leave
• Team Building events
• Opportunities for professional development and career advancement within a fast-growing telecommunications company.
• A dynamic and innovative work environment that fosters collaboration and growth.

Salary: $18.00-$24.00/hr
