Field surveyor

The Field surveyor is responsible for all construction survey, layout, and line-and-grade activities on Marathon's mechanical and electrical construction projects. Using Topcon robotic total stations, GPS/GNSS receivers, and MAGNET software, you ensure that systems are installed to design specifications accurately, efficiently, and safely

You'll serve as the critical link between engineering drawings, BIM Team and field installation crews, working alongside Superintendents and Project Managers on commercial, healthcare, industrial, and mission-critical projects across the Southeast.

Construction Layout & Survey

Assist with and perform onsite layout for mechanical and electrical systems: line-and-grade, horizontal control, benchmarks, and equipment pads

Set up, calibrate, and operate Topcon robotic total stations, GNSS receivers, and data collectors with MAGNET Field

Download and process design files (DWG, RVT) into layout software; verify coordinate systems and project control points

Establish and maintain site benchmarks and control networks throughout the project lifecycle

Produce as-built documentation, field survey sketches, and accurate daily layout logs

Quality Control & Accuracy

Ensure all layout adheres to project tolerances, QC requirements, and applicable codes (ASME, ANSI, local AHJ)

Conduct pre-installation checks and post-installation surveys to verify installed work matches design intent

Interface with clients' surveyors and owner's representatives to resolve tolerance conflicts and constructability issues

Safety & Project Coordination

Champion a culture of safety on the jobsite participate in daily briefings, toolbox talks, and job hazard analyses

Collaborate with Superintendents, Foremen, and other trades to coordinate layout schedules and minimize conflicts

Assist in reviewing submittals, shop drawings, and coordination drawings for layout feasibility

Education & Experience

High School Diploma or GED required.

2+ years of field experience in mechanical, civil, or electrical construction

Experience supporting multi-trade construction projects strongly preferred

Strong communication and organizational skills; detail-oriented with a commitment to precision
