Heavy Equipment Operator - High-End Residential Construction

About Us

We are a high-end residential building company focused on delivering custom homes and major renovations with precision, care, and purpose.

Our work is guided by three core values:

Truth - We communicate clearly and honestly, even when it's hard.

Trust - We do what we say, take ownership, and build confidence with our clients and team.

Thankfulness - We approach our work with gratitude, respect, and a long-term perspective.

Our vision is simple but powerful:

Building With Eternal Perspective

We believe what we build--and how we build it--matters beyond the project itself.

The Role

We are looking for a skilled and dependable Heavy Equipment Operator who takes pride in their work and understands the importance of precision on high-end residential sites.

This role is not just about operating machinery. It's about contributing to a team that delivers exceptional homes where details matter and mistakes are costly.

You will play a key role in site preparation, excavation, grading, and material handling while maintaining a clean, safe, and well-organized job site.

Key Responsibilities

• Operate heavy equipment (excavators, Dozers, skid steers, loaders, etc.) with precision and care
• Execute site prep, grading, trenching, and backfilling to plan and specification
• Read and interpret site plans, elevations, and layout requirements
• Work closely with site supervisors and project managers to maintain workflow and timelines
• Maintain equipment in good working condition and report issues proactively
• Uphold high standards for site cleanliness, safety, and organization
• Anticipate problems and communicate early to avoid delays or rework

If you hold a CDL Class A and Management experience, lets talk about your role as our Team Leader and the appropriate compensation for this role.

What We're Looking For

• Proven experience operating heavy equipment in residential, commercial, or similar construction environments
• Do you have the ability to envision a site before it begins? where grades should tie together? 
• Strong attention to detail--understands that small errors early become big problems later
• Ability to follow direction while also thinking ahead and taking initiative
• Reliable, consistent, and accountable
• Values alignment with Truth, Trust, and Thankfulness
• A team-first mindset with respect for clients, trades, and coworkers

What Sets This Role Apart

This is not production work or volume building.

Our projects are high-detail, high-expectation environments where:

• Accuracy matters more than speed
• Communication matters as much as execution
• Every team member contributes to the client experience

You won't be treated like "just an operator."

You'll be trusted to take ownership of your part of the build.

Compensation

• Job Positions based on experience and qualifications. 
• Salary Range 50K - 90K depending on experience and qualifications.
• Full Coverage Health Care included.

Why Join Us

• Work on high-end, meaningful residential projects
• Be part of a values-driven team
• Stable, long-term opportunity with consistent work
• A company that respects craftsmanship and people equally
• Quality of Life Improvement and Pay Improvement. 

Final Thought

We're looking for someone who doesn't just want a job--but wants to be part of building something that lasts.
