About the role
We are looking for a CDL-A Railroad Recovery Equipment Operator to join a team that responds to railroad incidents and supports rail infrastructure projects. This position combines commercial driving, heavy equipment operation, and physical labor to help restore rail service, transport specialized equipment, and complete track-related work. While a valid CDL-A is required, this is not a long-haul driving position. Most of your time will be spent operating equipment, assisting with field operations, maintaining equipment, and supporting emergency response efforts. This is a full-time, direct hire opportunity with benefits, travel reimbursement, and substantial overtime potential.
Requirements
- Valid Class A Commercial Driver's License (CDL-A) with a satisfactory driving record.
- Experience performing physically demanding construction, industrial, railroad, or similar labor.
- Ability to complete required qualification testing and safety training.
- Must be available to respond to emergency calls at any time, including evenings, weekends, and holidays.
- Comfortable working outdoors in changing weather conditions and performing physically demanding tasks.
