Safely execute bore plans while maintaining accuracy, production efficiency, and utility protection standards.
Read and interpret construction prints, utility locates, bore profiles, and project specifications.
Evaluate ground conditions and make real-time adjustments to ensure successful bore completion.
Coordinate closely with locator crews, laborers, supervisors, and installation teams to maintain project timelines.
Conduct pre-trip inspections, equipment checks, and preventative maintenance on drilling rigs, tooling, mud systems, and support equipment.
Identify and troubleshoot operational or mechanical issues in the field.
Ensure compliance with OSHA regulations, company safety procedures, and client standards.
Maintain clean, organized, and professional job sites.
Complete daily production reports, safety documentation, and equipment logs accurately.

What We’re Looking For

Experience operating drilling rigs ranging from 20,000–100,000 lb machines.
Active CDL with a clean driving record.
Strong understanding of underground utility installation practices and utility locating procedures.
Ability to read blueprints, site plans, and bore path designs.
Strong knowledge of OSHA standards and safe excavation/drilling practices.
Mechanical aptitude with the ability to troubleshoot drilling equipment and fluid systems.
Ability to work outdoors in varying weather and physically demanding job site conditions.
Willingness to work overtime, weekends, and travel locally as project demands require.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience with fiber optic infrastructure projects.
Previous experience on municipal, DOT, prevailing wage, or government/federal projects.
Experience with mud mixing systems, vac systems, and locating equipment.
Crew leadership or lead operator experience preferred.

Why Join Cherokee Fiber & Associates?

Competitive compensation with overtime opportunities.
Long-term, stable project pipeline.
