  • Complete detailed daily reports, safety checklists, compliance documentation, and locate records using mobile and computer systems.
  • Maintain comprehensive records of locate requests, completed activities, and damage prevention efforts.
  • Support emergency response efforts related to pipeline incidents and excavation emergencies.
  • Collaborate closely with Operations, Integrity Management, Environmental, Safety teams, and contractors to ensure safe and compliant operations.
  • Perform routine inspections of pipeline rights-of-way, reporting potential safety or operational concerns.

  • Ability to work independently while maintaining a high level of accuracy and attention to detail.

Nice to Have:

  • Prior experience in utility locating, pipeline operations, oil and gas field work, construction, or damage prevention.
  • Proficiency using electromagnetic (EM) locating equipment and GPS mapping tools.
