Survey Technician | Field & Office

About the Role

We're seeking a versatile Survey Technician who enjoys a combination of fieldwork and office responsibilities. This is an opportunity to join a great group of surveying professionals with strong leadership, a supportive team environment, and the flexibility to take ownership of your work.

Rather than being confined to a single role, you'll have the opportunity to contribute throughout the surveying process, from collecting data in the field to processing information and assisting with the preparation of survey deliverables in the office.

We're looking for someone who is dependable, technically capable, and comfortable working independently. You'll be trusted to manage your responsibilities, stay productive, and take initiative without being micromanaged.

Key Responsibilities

• Perform field surveying activities, including boundary, topographic, construction layout, and other land development surveys.
• Operate GPS/GNSS receivers, robotic total stations, data collectors, and other modern surveying equipment.
• Collect accurate field data and maintain organized field notes and documentation.
• Process and review field data to ensure accuracy and completeness.
• Assist with drafting, CAD production, and preparation of survey plans and deliverables.
• Perform deed research, record review, and basic boundary analysis as needed.
• Coordinate with project managers, field personnel, and office staff to keep projects moving efficiently.
• Identify potential issues or discrepancies in the field and communicate findings to the appropriate team members.
• Take ownership of assigned projects and responsibilities while maintaining high standards of quality and accuracy.

Requirements

• 2+ years of experience in land surveying.
• Familiarity with GPS/GNSS equipment, robotic total stations, and electronic data collectors.
• Understanding of boundary, topographic, and construction surveying principles.
• Ability to work both independently and as part of a team.
• Strong attention to detail and organizational skills.
• Dependable, self-motivated, and willing to take initiative.
• Valid driver's license and ability to travel to project sites.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with AutoCAD Civil 3D, Carlson Survey, or other surveying and drafting software.
• Experience processing field data and preparing survey deliverables.
• Familiarity with deed research, boundary resolution, and property records.
• Experience working with Leica, Trimble, or similar surveying equipment.

Why This Role Stands Out

Variety in Your Work: Enjoy a mix of field and office responsibilities rather than being limited to the same tasks every day. Get involved in different stages of the surveying process and continue developing your technical skill set.

Autonomy & Trust: Work with a team that values initiative and gives employees the independence to manage their responsibilities. You'll have the support of experienced leadership without being micromanaged.

Strong Team & Leadership: Join a group of good people who take pride in their work and enjoy working together. You'll be part of an environment where leadership is accessible, supportive, and invested in the team's success.

Opportunity to Earn More: Plenty of opportunity for overtime for those who want it. Whether you're looking to maximize your earnings or simply prefer a standard schedule, there's flexibility to make the opportunity work for you.

Room to Grow: Continue expanding your field and office experience while developing skills that can open doors to future opportunities in surveying, CAD, project management, or leadership.
