Lead the Crew that Builds America’s Wireless Future

 

At Tower Communications Expert (TCE) , our Crew Leaders are trusted field leaders — running safe, skilled, and high-performing tower teams across the Southwest. You’ll be directing tower projects that power communication, public safety, and connectivity nationwide.

  • Lead a team of tower technicians through hands-on site work and day-to-day execution
  • Run pre-job meetings, assign tasks, and ensure every project hits deadlines safely
  • Train and mentor technicians while maintaining safety, quality, and productivity
  • Perform and oversee climbs, installs, tests (PIM/Sweep), and closeout documentation
  • Complete administrative tasks: timesheets, daily logs, material lists, and reports
  • Manage and maintain all company gear, vehicles, and tools
  • Review performance and coach team members for growth
  • Investigate incidents and implement corrective safety actions
Requirements:

Who We’re Looking For:

  • 3-5+ years of tower experience , with proven crew leadership
  • Strong technical background with carriers (AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, DISH)
  • OSHA 30 , NWSA TT1/TT2 , and Comtrain certifications required
  • Experience using PIM, Anritsu, OTDR, and alignment/test tools
  • Clear understanding of SOWs, construction drawings, and safety protocols
  • Excellent communication and team management skills
  • CDL preferred; must have valid driver’s license and clean MVR
  • Willing to travel 4–6 weeks at a time across the region

Pay & Perks

Pay Range - $25–$35/hr

Est. Yearly (with OT/per diem) - $65k–$90k+

  • $45/day per diem
  • Shared hotel + travel costs paid by company
  • Overtime + performance bonuses
  • Referral bonus program

Why Join TCE?

  • Safety-first culture — built by tower techs, for tower techs
  • Clear career path — grow into Construction Manager or Regional Lead
  • All gear provided — including tools, climbing harness, and PPE
  • Mentorship & training — to develop your crew and your own skills
  • Respectful environment — where hard work gets recognized

Full Benefits Package:

  • Company-paid short-term & long-term disability
  • Paid life insurance
  • Health & dental insurance contributions
  • PTO program (starts at 1 week, increases with tenure)
  • Paid holidays

Ready to Lead?

If you're an experienced tower tech ready to run your own crew — and you take pride in doing the job right — we want to hear from you.

"At TCE, we don’t just build towers — we build teams. And we back our leaders every step of the way." — Field Operations Director
