Excavator Operator

Run clean, run to grade, and leave the bench better than you found it.

Puget SoundFull-time

Apply nowApply now

You make hard digging look easy.

You've got real seat time, you read a grade stake without thinking, and you care how the bench looks when you're done.

We'll give you good iron, a straight-talking foreman, and a plan for the week that holds.

01 — Dig to the number
Cut, load and trench to grade with machine control, and check your own work.

02 — Look after the iron
Walk it every morning, grease it, and call out problems early.

03 — Work with the crew
Keep your eyes on the people around your machine, every swing.

04 — Leave it right
Clean benches, clean ramps, and nothing left for the next shift to fix.

  • Work that doesn't stop in November
  • Overtime that actually gets paid
  • Medical, dental and vision from day one
  • Paid training and tickets
  • Boots and gear allowance
  • A bonus when the job closes clean
  • Modern, maintained iron
  • A foreman who answers the phone

  • 3+ years on excavators 30 tons and up
  • Comfort with GPS machine control
  • A clean driver's license
  • A clean safety record
  • Reliable transport to the site
  • An honest day, every day

This seat is open.

Why crews stay

[ 01 ]

Crew-built benefits

Our benefits are shaped by the people using them, so they cover what actually matters.

[ 02 ]

Room to move up

We teach, we promote from within, and we mean both.

[ 03 ]

A real crew

Everyone's voice counts on site, and the win belongs to all of us.

[ 04 ]

Straight talk

You'll always know where you stand and what's next.
