Be the first line of defense for critical infrastructure

At North Sky Communications, LLC, our Locators play a vital role in keeping people and projects safe. Before any ground is broken, you’re the one ensuring underground utilities are accurately identified and clearly marked. Your work directly protects crews, communities, and essential infrastructure.

This is a field-based role that combines technical skill, independence, and real-world problem-solving in constantly changing environments.

Connecting you to great benefits

What you’ll do

You’ll own the locate process from start to finish:

• Locate with precision using electromagnetic equipment, ground-penetrating radar (GPR), and other advanced tools
• Mark utilities clearly and accurately using standard color codes in compliance with 811 regulations
• Read and interpret maps including blueprints, GIS data, and utility layouts
• Document your work with photos, notes, and digital records using company-provided devices
• Coordinate in the field with crews, project managers, and property owners to identify risks and align on work zones
• Maintain safety standards by following OSHA guidelines and setting up proper traffic control when needed
• Handle field realities including light digging, on-call rotations, overtime, travel, and working in all weather conditions
• Take on additional tasks as needed to support the team

What you’ll need

• High school diploma or GED
• 1–2 years of utility locating or underground construction experience (preferred, not required—we train the right people)
• Valid driver’s license with a clean record (CDL strongly preferred)
• Comfort using mobile apps, GPS tools, and digital reporting systems
• Strong attention to detail and ability to work independently in the field

Physical demands

This is an active, outdoor role. You’ll regularly:

• Walk long distances across uneven terrain
• Bend, stoop, and lift up to 55 lbs
• Work with hands and arms in repetitive or elevated positions
• Operate vehicles and equipment

Occasionally, you may use ladders, work in confined spaces, or climb stairs.
