Now Hiring: Tower Technicians (Level I–III)

Chicago/Indianapolis (Midwest)
$18–$30/hr + Bonuses + Per Diem + Growth Path

Build the networks that keep the world connected.

At Tower Communications Expert (TCE) , our Tower Technicians are more than climbers — they’re the backbone of wireless infrastructure. Whether it’s a remote mountaintop or a busy city rooftop, our teams deliver safe, reliable, and high-quality telecom builds that power emergency services, business, and everyday life.

What You’ll Do

  • Climb and work on towers, rooftops, and structures (sometimes 300+ ft)
  • Install, troubleshoot, and repair cellular equipment, antennas, and cabling
  • Perform sweeps, PIM testing, and fiber/coax splicing
  • Follow safety protocols 100% — every time
  • Travel regionally with crew; per diem and hotel provided
Requirements:

Who We’re Looking For

  • Comfortable working at heights and outdoors year-round
  • Previous tower, construction, or electrical experience a plus
  • Valid driver’s license required (CDL is a bonus!)
  • Certified climbers or willing to become certified (we’ll train you)
  • A strong work ethic, team-first attitude, and desire to grow

Pay & Perks

Level I - $18–$22/hr - $40k–$50k+/year

Level II - $23–$26/hr - $50k–$60k+/year

Level III - $27–$30/hr - $60k–$85k+/year

Plus:

  • $45/day per diem
  • Overtime pay
  • Performance and referral bonuses
  • All travel/hotel paid by company

Why Join TCE?

  • Real advancement opportunities – grow from Level I to Foreman or CM
  • Top-tier safety culture – we prioritize our people
  • Hands-on training – get certified and paid to learn
  • Company vehicles and gear provided
  • Tight-knit team, not just a number

"I started with zero tower experience. TCE trained me, promoted me, and now I’m leading my own crew. If you’re dependable, they invest in you."
Marcus R., Level II Technician

Benefits Highlights

  • Paid short- and long-term disability
  • Company-paid life insurance
  • Health & dental insurance contributions
  • PTO & paid holidays

Ready to Climb?

If you’re hardworking, fearless, and ready to take your career to new heights — apply today and let’s build something great together.
