• Lead and work alongside concrete crews on substation and transmission line projects.
• Read and interpret blueprints, civil plans, foundation drawings, specifications, elevations, and layouts accurately.
• Perform and verify jobsite layout for foundations, equipment pads, structures, and related concrete work.
• Plan and manage daily manpower, equipment, materials, and work sequencing.
• Have strong working knowledge of drill rigs and drilled foundation operations.
• Oversee excavation, reinforcing steel, forming, concrete placement, finishing, and foundation construction.
• Understand construction of transformer pads, containment pits, containment walls, drilled piers, equipment foundations, transmission structure foundations, and other substation and transmission-related concrete structures.
• Complete required QA/QC documentation, electronic timesheets, daily reports, and computer-based project documentation.
• Understand and manage IRA prevailing wage and apprenticeship requirements, including journeyman/apprentice ratios and workforce compliance.
• Coordinate with project management, safety, QA/QC, subcontractors, inspectors, and customers.
• Maintain a safe, organized, and productive jobsite while keeping the project on schedule.
• Hold crews accountable and provide strong field leadership.

Qualifications

• Significant experience supervising concrete crews in substation, transmission line, utility, or high-voltage electrical construction.
• Strong knowledge of heavy civil and structural concrete work associated with substations and transmission systems.
• Ability to accurately read blueprints and perform layout.
• Knowledge of drill rig operations and drilled foundation work.
• Comfortable using computers and tablets for QA/QC, timesheets, reporting, and documentation.
• Strong organizational and time-management skills.
• Must be trustworthy, honest, dependable, organized, and accountable.
• Must be willing and able to travel extensively based on project needs.
• Bilingual English/Spanish is highly preferred.

Benefits

• Company truck provided upon hire.
• Health insurance available, with the company contributing up to $7,000 per year toward individual health insurance coverage.
• Dental and vision insurance available.
• 401(k) retirement plan with company match.
