Full Job Description

About the Role

This is an equipment-first production role. If you're an operator who takes real pride in running equipment well, this is the job.

You'll spend the day running equipment: feeding screeners, moving material with a loader, working an excavator, and keeping production flowing from raw yard waste to finished product. You'll work alongside the Site Manager and the rest of the crew to keep the yard running the way it should.

What You'll Be Doing

Equipment Operation — This Is the Core of the Job

We're looking for someone who is genuinely skilled in the seat — not just someone who can get by. You'll be running:

Loaders The loader is your primary tool. You'll use it to feed grinders and screeners consistently without overloading, blend materials accurately using bucket counts and layering, build and turn windrows, stage stockpiles, and manage yard traffic safely. Precision matters here — sloppy feeding costs time and wears equipment.

Excavators You'll use excavators for material handling, digging, pile management, and yard reconfiguration. Knowing how to work an excavator efficiently in a tight production environment — around trucks, customers, and other operators — is a skill we value highly.

Screening Equipment (Trommel & Deck Screens) Running the screener well means understanding more than just turning it on. You'll need to know how screen size affects finished product, how to adjust feed rates to prevent clogging or poor separation, how to read material that's too wet or too dry, and how to manage overs and reprocessing flow. Quality output starts with the person feeding the machine.

Grinders You'll feed material correctly to avoid jams and damage, watch for contamination (metal, plastic, debris), and coordinate grind size based on downstream use. Knowing when something doesn't sound or feel right is part of the job.

General Equipment Expectations Daily walkarounds and equipment care are non-negotiable. You know the limits of the machine, you flag problems early, and you work safely around other operators, trucks, and customers in a busy yard.

Compost & Soil Production

You'll manage material from inbound yard waste all the way through to finished product — building and turning windrows with attention to moisture, temperature, oxygen, and contamination; blending soils and compost to spec; and keeping stockpiles organized and production moving.

Safety & Yard Awareness

Tight yards with loaders, excavators, customer vehicles, and delivery trucks require constant awareness. You'll keep traffic flow safe, follow good safety practices, spot issues early, and make sure incoming material meets acceptance standards.

Customer Interaction

Help customers with product selection, loading, and basic guidance. Cover the scale house when needed. Handle situations calmly and professionally.

What We're Looking For

Proven experience operating loaders and excavators — confident, not just capable
Experience with trommel or deck screeners and grinding equipment is a strong plus
Background in composting, soils, landscaping materials, recycling, or similar operations
Understanding of how material behaves through the process — wet vs. dry, finished vs. raw, contaminated vs. clean
Comfortable working outside year-round in a fast-moving production yard
Someone who takes ownership of their equipment and their work

Schedule Full-time | Wednesday through Sunday | Typically 7:00 AM – 5:00 PM

Pay $22.00 – $28.00 per hour depending on experience
