Highway Guardrail Installation Superintendent

Curtis Contracting Inc (CCI)

Job Description

Job Description

Step into the lead role that keeps drivers safe

Picture your day starting at the project site, reviewing drawings and blueprints with your crew, and mapping out how today's guardrail systems and impact attenuators will go in—precisely, safely, and on schedule. As the Highway Guardrail Installation Superintendent, you orchestrate the work: you brief the team, confirm traffic control set-ups, align with state and city inspection teams, and ensure every post driven and terminal set meets specification.

You own the details that keep the job moving—tracking quantities, checking material usage, reviewing timecards—and you mentor your team while operating and overseeing equipment such as a pounder truck, skidsteers, and augers. Throughout the week, you compile daily and weekly foreman reports and maintain open communication with VDOT inspectors to verify compliance and progress.

What you'll lead
  • Field supervision, training, and direction for installation, repair, and maintenance of roadway barrier systems: W-Beam, cable barriers, end terminals, and impact attenuators.
  • Interpretation of plans, drawings, and blueprints to guide precise installation and repair work.
  • Site safety leadership, including traffic control set-ups and adherence to VDOT and OSHA regulations.
  • Operation and oversight of heavy equipment (pounder truck, skidsteers, augers) to execute work efficiently and safely.
  • Administrative stewardship: daily/weekly foreman reports, material usage tracking, quantity recording, and crew timecard management.
What you bring
  • High school diploma or equivalent.
  • Valid driver’s license with Class A or B CDL; Class A strongly preferred.
  • Clean driving record.
  • At least 5 years in guardrail or heavy highway construction.
  • Preferred: GRIT certification, Traffic Control certification, and OSHA 30.
  • Willingness to work days, nights, weekends, and travel out of town as needed.
Rewards and benefits
  • Competitive wages (commensurate with experience).
  • Health, Dental, and Vision Insurance.
  • Paid Time Off and Paid Holidays.
  • Pension Program.
  • 401(k).
