• Maintaining tools, machinery, and lining equipment
• Helping prepare, clean, and restore work areas
• Completing job paperwork, documentation, and project records
• Working closely with lead technicians, project managers, inspectors, and customers
• Helping train less-experienced crew members and taking on additional responsibility as your skills develop

What We’re Looking For

Preferred qualifications include:

• Experience with trenchless pipe rehabilitation, CIPP, spray lining, or related underground work
