1. About the

Role Location:

46930 188th St, Brandt, SD 57218 This is a hands-on leadership position. You will run equipment and work alongside a small crew, and you will also keep an eye on other jobsites and other employees, step in wherever the work needs help, and make sure the right equipment is at the right site at the right time. It sits above a single crew lead and below ownership: closer to a working field manager over several crews than to a foreman on one site. You will not be moving the homes themselves. Home transport is handled separately. Your equipment hauling & operating is skid steers, excavators, attachments, specialty home handling equipment, and related tools and materials. We would rather train the right person on our methods than hire someone who needs to be taught the trade or equipment operation, so we are looking for someone who already has real time in sitework, foundations, or home installation. 2. What You Will Do 2.1 Sitework and excavation. Accurately lay out and prepare manufactured home foundations. Grade gravel lots, drill piers with an auger attachment on a five-ton class excavator, set them to depth and plan, and handle the rest of the dirt work a job site calls for. Pour & finish concrete piers for home installation. 2.2 Foundations, installation, and finish. Set and level foundations and pier systems, install homes, and complete finish work such as tie-downs, marriage line work, skirting, steps, decks, and utility connections and stub-ins. 2.3 Equipment logistics. Load, secure, tie down, haul, and unload equipment and attachments between the yard and jobsites across the service area, and keep equipment positioned so no crew is sitting idle waiting on a machine. 2.4 Equipment upkeep and repairs. Handle daily service and greasing, catch problems early, make field repairs you are comfortable making, and coordinate outside repairs, parts, and service calls when a machine goes down so the schedule keeps moving. 2.5 Crew leadership. Direct a small crew on the site you are working, set the order of work for the day, train newer hands, and hold the crew to our safety and quality standards. 2.6 Multi-site oversight. Check in on other active jobsites and employees, confirm work is on schedule and done right, redirect people and equipment when plans change, and report status and problems to ownership. 2.7 Jobsite coordination. Work directly with subcontractors, other contractors on site, utility and excavation crews, inspectors, and customers, and keep everyone pointed in the same direction without waiting to be told how. 2.8 Field decisions. Read the site, weather, and schedule, and make sound calls on your own when something does not go as planned, escalating the ones that need ownership's decision. 3. Equipment You Will Operate

• Skid steers with a range of attachments, including laser guided box blades, buckets, forks, grapples, augers, trenchers, and blades.
• Five-ton class excavators, including auger work for drilling piers as well as general digging, trenching, and grading.
• Trucks and trailers for equipment transport, with proper load securement and tie-down.
• Layout and leveling equipment, compaction equipment, and the usual hand and power tools of the trade.
• Translifts/Remote Trax for specialized house handling.

4. Travel and Schedule 4.1 Travel area. Our work covers roughly a five- to seven-state area, so travel is a regular part of this job, not an occasional exception. We do still have periods of time filled with local work as well, and generally slow down in the winter. 4.2 Nights away. Most weeks you are home on weekends. 4.3 Hours.

Field hours follow the work:

weather, deliveries, inspections, and installation schedules drive the day, and longer days are the norm in the busy season. 4.4 Travel expenses. Lodging and per diem for overnight travel are provided. 5. What We Are Looking For

• Solid experience in sitework, excavation, foundations, or home installation, with a track record of finishing work correctly without close supervision.
• Proficiency running skid steers and excavators, including changing and using attachments, and comfort with auger and pier drilling work.
• A commercial driver's license appropriate to hauling equipment, or the ability to obtain one within 90 days, plus an acceptable driving record.
• Proven ability to load, secure, and tie down equipment correctly and legally.
• Ability to read plans and site layouts, measure, and layout for foundations accurately.
• Experience leading a few people on a jobsite: assigning work, training, and keeping a crew productive and safe.
• Good judgment and initiative. You will often be the most senior person on site and will need to make decisions on the fly.
• Ability to communicate clearly with crews, contractors, inspectors, and customers.
• Willingness to travel overnight on the schedule described in Section 4, and reliable attendance. 6. What Moves You to the Top of the List
• Bilingual in English and Spanish. This is a significant plus for us, both on our own crews and in coordinating with other contractors on site.
• Working knowledge of modular and manufactured homes, including set and installation requirements, tie-downs, and marriage line work. This is a major advantage in this role.
• Diverse trade skills that come up in installation and finish work, such as water and sewer connections, concrete, excavation, framing, roofing, etc.
• Mechanical aptitude for diagnosing and repairing equipment, including hydraulics.
• Experience managing more than one jobsite or crew at a time.
• Experience with permits, inspections, and utility coordination.

7. Physical Requirements and Working Conditions The work is outdoors and physical, year-round, in South Dakota and surrounding-state weather. Expect standing, walking on uneven ground, climbing, bending, kneeling, crawling in crawl spaces and under homes, and repeated lifting and carrying of materials and tools. Required personal protective equipment must be worn, and Company safety rules apply on every site. The Company will consider reasonable accommodations for qualified applicants with disabilities as required by law. 8. Hiring Process and Conditions Any offer is contingent on a review of your driving record, pre-employment drug and alcohol testing, a medical examiner's certificate where required for the vehicle operated, and a background check where applicable.
