Job Description

Underground Solutions (UGS) specializes in communications installation of coax, copper, fiber and various sizes of conduit , and we believe people are our biggest asset. Our team brings the Underground Solutions mission to life because as local members of each community, we're passionate about being involved and contributing to the success and progress of each of the communities we serve as well as the company.

Since there are no two homes or buildings alike, installing fiber to the premise requires mental flexibility, physical dexterity, and a willingness to constantly adapt to changing conditions. There is no "business as usual" in this position, you'll often arrive on the job to find new environments, new questions, and new challenges. If you're a creature of habit, this might not be the job for you. If you're into being outside, trying new things, and can't stand sitting at a keyboard, we want to meet you.

Our leaders have created a workplace where folks are valued, ideas are heard, and leaders and teammates show up for each other. A career with the UGS team is both challenging and rewarding. We are actively building a culture you will not find among our peers in the industry.

Knowledge and experience are essential to Underground Solutions’ mission, and while applicants do not need telecommunications or construction experience, character is important, and we will train the right people. Being Self-motivated with the ability to complete daily tasks without constant supervision is key. We are looking for hard working, motivated individuals that strive to meet and exceed production goals that have a natural instinct for our common values: Honest, Local, Exceptional, and Hassle-Free.
