Position Overview
The Technician/Rigger – Tower Erection & Civil Works supports both telecommunications tower assembly and the foundational or site-prep civil tasks necessary to deploy tower infrastructure. This hands-on role involves working from ground-level civil tasks up to high-altitude rigging and installation—and requires strict adherence to safety standards.
Key ResponsibilitiesA. Tower Erection & Rigging Duties
- Climb towers, poles, or masts to install, orient, and secure telecom equipment—antennas, RRUs, AAUs, feeder systems, and grounding kits—accurately setting azimuth, tilt, and height per RF plans
- Engage in rigging operations using winches, pulleys, cat‑heads, and capstan systems to hoist and position heavy components
- Inspect towers, feeders, connectors, lighting, and structural elements. Propose corrections or replacements for damage, corrosion, or misalignment
- Troubleshoot signal and equipment issues (e.g., VSWR, RET systems, tower lighting, GPS alignment) and assist in interference or acceptance testing as required
- Follow and contribute to rigging plans and standard methods of procedure (MOPs), job safety analyses (JSAs), and comply with all safety protocols (OSHA, RF, height safety) .
- Maintain accurate records of installations, inventory, maintenance, and field observations—reporting back to RF engineers and project leads
B. Civil/Site-Prep and Foundation Work
- Assist with the erection and reinforcement of structural foundations: tower base, guy-anchor systems, and any necessary steel or concrete forms (e.g., anchor bolts, leveling, structural alignment)
- Execute groundwork tasks including excavation, material layout, scaffold installation, anchoring, and placement of bolted or welded components per engineering or construction plans
- Interpret foundation and structural blueprints or technical plans; assist with layout measurements and physical alignment using rigging tools like pulleys, cranes, and hand or power tools
- Support cable trenching, feeder routing, and civil-grade grounding setups to integrate tower equipment to network infrastructure.
Qualifications & RequirementsTechnical & Safety Skills
- High school diploma or equivalent; technical diploma in engineering, civil construction, or telecom preferred
- Minimum 3–5 years of combined experience in tower erection and rigging, plus civil foundation or site construction work
- Certifications in: Authorized/Competent Climber, Rescue, OSHA 10/30, RF Awareness, First Aid/CPR, and rigging per ANSI/ASME or local standards
- Ability to read construction blueprints, site civil drawings, and technical specs to guide installation and civil tasks.
