The Role

• Run solo robotic total station or GPS operations when the project calls for it.
• Collect and document field data with the care and organization office staff need to produce accurate deliverables.
• Maintain your vehicle and equipment to a professional, workmanlike standard.
• Represent Ark with professionalism and respect on client sites and with the public.
• Work in all weather conditions that permit safe crew operations.

Qualifications

• Punctuality, dependability, and a track record of showing up ready to work.
• Valid North Carolina driver’s license.
• Successful completion of a background check and drug screening.

Even Better

• CAD experience and familiarity with in-office survey processes.

What We Offer

• Health insurance.
• Bonus/profit sharing program.
