Position Summary
TekCom Resources is seeking an experienced OSP Construction Supervisor / Field Representative to support a major Outside Plant construction project near Oahu, Hawaii. This role blends field supervision, QA/QC, drilling oversight, and construction reporting. It is not a full‑time inspector role;instead, it focuses on ensuring compliance, documenting discrepancies, and coordinating with contractors and project stakeholders.
The ideal candidate brings 3–5 years of construction inspection or utility/telecom field experience, is fully local to the project near Oahu, and is comfortable working independently from the field—primarily out of their vehicle, with no dedicated office.

Daily Observation & Reporting
- Perform daily observations of construction activities including HDD, large rig operations, seaward work, manhole excavation, trenching, plowing, boring, and cable placement.
- Maintain detailed daily logs: activities, weather, crew/equipment, visitors, irregularities, and corrective actions.
- Document and report discrepancies using company digital reporting tools.
- Photograph site progress and submit reports to the project office.
Compliance & QA/QC
- Ensure work is completed according to drawings, specifications, permits, and environmental mitigation requirements.
- Observe traffic control setups and report discrepancies.
- Track quantities of installed facilities (conduit, pipe, manholes, etc.).
- Understand and manage required testing per specifications (manual tests, brushing, cleaning—fiber testing not included).
Contract & Technical Administration
- Understand contract requirements, unit pricing, lump sum, and T&M structures.
- Identify out‑of‑scope work and communicate with the home office.
- Assist with RFI review and coordination between field and design teams.
- Work with jurisdictional agencies to answer questions and maintain smooth construction progress.
Logistics & Work Conditions
- Work out of a vehicle at job sites;no office is provided.
- Daily travel to sites on Oahu;no island hopping required.
- Tablet provided if needed.
- Not expected to work more than 40 hours per week.
What will catch our eye:
- 3–5 years of field utility, telecom, or construction inspection experience.
- Experience with trenching, plowing, boring, excavations, or cable placement.
