If you're looking for growth, we've got you covered. We provide a quality training program and opportunities for advancement.

Our technicians spend their workdays on the go, independently working in the field using their company-provided vehicle. We use best-in-class ticket and claims management systems to ensure clear and complete mark-out services for the excavator or property owner at the work site.

No prior locating experience is needed, but previous industry experience is a plus and will be considered when determining starting pay.

Your Responsibilities as a Gas Locate Technician :

• Use locating equipment to determine the location of gas lines in a designated area and mark the area with paint and flags to prevent damage to utility infrastructure. Some hand digging to unearth gas lines may be required.
• Develop knowledge and understanding of underground utility infrastructure.
• Follow all company, client, state, and federal damage prevention guidelines.
• As a technician in our Advanced Gas Operations division, you may locate other utilities in addition to gas lines, depending upon the project to which you are assigned.

These are daytime, full-time positions and overtime is required. Participation in an after-hours on-call rotation is also required. We have a 48-hour turnaround time on most locates, which means we generally work the day after holidays and some weekends, as needed.
