  • 5+ years of experience as a heavy equipment operator
  • 4+ years of experience on civil construction or remediation sites
  • Solid understanding of equipment safety and job site awareness
  • Comfortable operating machinery with either CAT or John Deere control systems
  • Valid 40-Hour HAZWOPER certification (plus 8-Hour refresher if applicable)
