Join Our Team at Kimlin Energy!
We're seeking a reliable and detail-oriented Small Equipment Operator to join our growing team. In this role, you'll play a key part in safely installing underground propane tanks and gas lines for residential customers. If you have a keen eye for spotting potential hazards and experience operating excavators, we want to hear from you!
Key Responsibilities:

• Locate underground utilities, including gas lines, septics, water lines, and other unmarked infrastructure, using diligence, educated guesswork, and a light touch to minimize risks.
• Collaborate with sales teams and customers to determine optimal tank placement.
• Excavate sites for underground lines and propane tanks, ensuring safe and efficient operations.
• Operate small equipment and transport it using our trucks (CDL A required for truck operation—no current CDL needed, but must be eligible to obtain one).
• Complete jobs efficiently: Most installations take less than a day, with potential for 2-3 per day if sites are nearby.

Requirements:

• Experience operating excavators or similar small equipment.
• Strong attention to detail and safety mindset, especially with unmarked utilities.
• Ability to work independently and make informed decisions on-site.
• Physical fitness for outdoor labor in various weather conditions.
• Valid driver's license; must be able to obtain CDL A.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Background in landscaping, general labor, or construction with hands-on excavator experience.
• No prior propane knowledge required—we provide full training!

This is a hands-on position where your skills in careful excavation and problem-solving will make a real difference. Competitive pay, training opportunities, and a supportive team environment await
