Pipelayer

About This Role

Work on a large underground sanitary and storm sewer project in Aubrey, TX installing pipe systems to plan and tolerance. This is hands-on field work — laying pipe, setting structures, checking slopes with levels/lasers, and backfilling trenches. You should have at least 5 years of underground pipelaying experience, be comfortable reading blueprints and using layout tools, and take pride in safe, accurate work. The position includes training others on pipe-laying techniques and other general construction tasks as needed. Competitive pay based on experience and a full benefits package are offered.

What You'll Do

• • Install sanitary and storm sewer structures and underground pipe systems per plans and tolerances.
• • Lay out pipe routes from blueprints, set grades, cut pipe to length, align and connect sections using lasers/levels and hand tools.
• • Check slopes and elevations for conformance using transit/laser/level; prepare and grade trench bases.
• • Seal or weld joints, drill/tap pipe as required, and secure pipe prior to backfill.
• • Backfill, compact, and cover installed pipe; perform trench stabilization and bedding work.
• • Train and mentor less-experienced crew members and perform general construction labor as directed.

What We're Looking For

• • 5+ years of underground pipe-laying experience on large construction sites.
• • Ability to read and interpret drawings, blueprints, and site layout plans.
• • Proficiency with levels, lasers, transit, measuring and cutting pipe, and trench bedding/stabilization.
• • Experience with excavation/trench work, backfilling, and compacting to grade.
• • Strong attention to detail, reliable attendance, and ability to work safely around heavy equipment.
• • Good communication and teamwork skills; able to train others and follow supervisor directions.

Qualifications

• • High school diploma or GED preferred but not required.
• • OSHA 10-hour (or higher) preferred; confined space and trench-safety training a plus.
• • Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation to job site.
• • Ability to pass pre-employment drug screen and background check.
• • Proven experience with sewer/steel/civil pipe installation and pipe testing.
• • Basic math skills and English-language comprehension for reading plans and safety directions.

What We Offer

• • Paid Time Off and 7 paid holidays.
• • Medical, dental, and vision insurance options.
• • 401(k) retirement plan.
• • Competitive pay based on experience and skill level.
• • Referral cash bonuses and opportunities for craft advancement.
