The Opportunity We are hiring an experienced Heavy Equipment Operator Deep Utilities to support large underground utility and civil projects based out of Calgary, with current work near Prince Albert, SK and other locations across Alberta. You will be a key part of a pipe and grade crew installing deep utilities safely and efficiently in demanding, high-production environments. This role is ideal for a professional operator who takes pride in precise work, understands excavation and trench safety, and wants to work on major infrastructure projects using modern equipment and technology. What You'll Do
  • Operate heavy equipment safely and productively on deep utility and civil construction projects, including remote and high-production sites.
  • Install deep underground utilities such as water mains, storm systems, sanitary sewer, underground telecom infrastructure, and utility crossings.
  • Run excavators, loaders, dozers, packers, skid steers, rock trucks, and related equipment to complete trenching, bedding, backfilling, and grading.
  • Read and interpret utility drawings, grade stakes, and construction plans to dig to correct line and grade the first time.
  • Work around existing underground utilities and congested infrastructure while maintaining strict excavation and trench safety procedures.

  • Valid Class 5 driver's licence; Class 1 or 3 is an asset, as is experience with large diameter pipe, shoring systems, GPS machine control, and high-production civil or telecom projects.
  • Comfort working outdoors in varying weather, travelling within Alberta as required, and collaborating with a field-based construction team.
