Job Description

RockSol is a renowned company specializing in geotechnical, transportation construction, bridge, and roadway projects. The firm is recognized for its commitment to quality and safety, providing advanced materials testing services through both field and laboratory environments. With decades of expertise, RockSol supports infrastructure development by ensuring that civil materials such as soil, asphalt, and concrete meet stringent standards. The company prides itself on fostering an inclusive and diverse workplace, emphasizing equal opportunity employment and a drug-free work environment. RockSol offers comprehensive benefits packages to its full-time employees, including medical, dental, and vision insurance, various disability plans, 401K, paid time off, and holiday pay. The salary for positions within the civil materials technician role ranges from $21 to $35 per hour, depending on education and experience.

The role of Civil Materials Technician at RockSol involves working on challenging infrastructure construction projects in diverse locations. This position is designed for individuals with expertise in conducting standard soil, asphalt, and concrete testing both in the field and laboratory settings. Although there is no immediate vacancy, RockSol welcomes expressions of interest and maintains a candidate database for future opportunities. Civil Materials Technicians are essential in supporting the quality assurance processes by collecting, testing, and analyzing samples of construction materials to verify compliance with project specifications and industry standards such as AASHTO and ASTM.

Working at RockSol requires a high level of professionalism and technical competence, as technicians interact regularly with client representatives and business partners. The role demands physical stamina to navigate road construction sites and handle equipment like nuclear gauges safely. Attention to safety protocols and quality management systems is paramount as technicians must adhere to company policies and maintain certifications critical to their tasks. Additionally, the role involves routine documentation and reporting of test results, ensuring accountability and traceability across project phases. Technicians must be willing to travel to various project sites, sometimes for extended periods, and work nontraditional or extended hours as project needs dictate.

This opportunity offers a chance to gain practical experience in construction materials testing, advance technical skills through ongoing certification programs, and be part of a team dedicated to infrastructure excellence. RockSol’s commitment to diversity and inclusion creates a welcoming environment for all employees, encouraging continuous learning and professional growth. Individuals with a basic understanding of construction management, civil engineering, or related fields are encouraged to apply or express interest to position themselves for future openings with this industry-leading company.
