Some people manage projects.
Others build teams that build projects.
We're looking for the second kind.
Alpha Inc. is searching for a Civil Superintendent who leads from the front, earns respect in the field, and refuses to compromise on safety, quality, or execution.
This isn't a role for someone who simply keeps schedules updated. It's for a leader who develops crews, solves problems before they become crises, holds high standards without sacrificing relationships, and takes ownership of every project as if their name is on it.
If you're the type of leader who can walk a jobsite, inspire a crew, earn a client's trust, and deliver exceptional results—all before lunch—we want to meet you.
Alpha Inc. is one of Hawai?i's premier heavy civil construction and infrastructure companies. From site development and utilities to renewable energy and complex infrastructure projects, we build the foundation that keeps our islands moving forward.
But what truly separates us isn't the equipment.
It's our people.
Everything we do is driven by our three Core Values:
We treat people with respect, build trust through humility, and create workplaces where safety and people always come first.
Great projects aren't built by individuals. They're built by teams working together toward one goal.
We embrace accountability, pursue excellence relentlessly, and never settle for "good enough."
If these values sound like how you already lead, you'll fit right in.
As Civil Superintendent, you'll serve as the operational leader in the field—connecting project management with field execution while ensuring every project is delivered safely, efficiently, on schedule, and to Alpha's high standards.
