About Native Sun

Our team has been built over generations, with deep experience in concrete, utility, and earthwork. We take pride in a job well done; it is what drives us, and we’re looking for people who want to help build and maintain Colorado’s infrastructure.

Key Responsibilities

• Perform general labor on roadwork, earthwork, and underground utility projects, including shoveling, raking, site clean-up, and material handling.
• Assist equipment operators and pipe crews with trenching, backfilling, compaction, and setting up work areas.
• Set up, maintain, and remove traffic control devices (signs, cones, barricades) and perform flagging duties to keep crews and the public safe.
• Follow directions from foremen and lead workers, communicate clearly with crew members, and work safely around live traffic and heavy equipment in all weather conditions.
• Support safe, clean, and organized jobsites and help with other tasks as needed to keep production moving.

What We’re Looking For

• Previous construction, roadwork, or civil labor experience preferred; traffic control or flagger experience is a plus but not required (we can help the right candidate get certified).
• Comfortable working outdoors all day, lifting 50 lbs, standing for extended periods, and working in all weather conditions.
• Safety-minded, able to work around heavy equipment and traffic while following all work zone and jobsite safety rules.
• Reliable, strong work ethic, and a team‑first attitude; willing to work overtime and travel locally as needed.
• Valid driver’s license, reliable transportation to Grand Junction‑area jobsites, and authorization to work in the U.S.
