Alpha Inc. is seeking Heavy Civil Laborers who take pride in their craft, respect the crew they work with, and want to build a long-term career in civil construction.

These positions will support major water infrastructure improvement projects and heavy civil infrastructure projects across. It is a field-forward position requiring physical capability, situational awareness, and a strong commitment to safety and teamwork.

This posting represents a career band
, not a single narrow slot. We are open to candidates at different stages of their journey — from developing laborers with foundational experience to highly skilled pipe and utility installers — as long as they bring the mindset, work ethic, and accountability that define an Alpha crew member.

Founded and grown in Hawaiĺ, Alpha Inc. is a locally owned leader in heavy civil construction, concrete, energy, drilling, and infrastructure services. Our projects support essential systems that serve island communities for generations.

Everything we do is guided by three core values:

• Lead with Heart – We prioritize safety, respect, and doing right by our people.
• Strength in Unity – We operate as one team across crews, projects, and departments.
• Alpha Mentality – We bring grit, pride, and a relentless drive to improve.

As a Heavy Civil Laborer at Alpha Inc., you will support civil construction and underground utility operations under the direction of a Foreman. Depending on experience and capability, responsibilities may include:

• Loading, unloading, transporting, and staging materials, tools, and equipment
• Digging trenches, leveling ground, and assisting with excavation and backfill
• Supporting installation of stormwater, sewer, and water utilities
• Cleaning and maintaining jobsites and equipment to eliminate hazards
• Operating hand tools and light equipment such as tampers, rollers, and skid loaders
• Flagging traffic and supporting work‑zone safety
• Communicating clearly with crew members to maintain safe and efficient operations

• Assist with pipe alignment, bedding, and grade checks
• Support equipment operators during lifting and placement activities
• Work independently on routine tasks with minimal supervision

This is hands‑on, production‑driven work — and your skill directly impacts the success of the project.

We’re not training from zero. We’re leveling up professionals.

• At least foundational experience in civil construction or a strong willingness to learn in a physically demanding environment
• Ability to lift up to 100 lbs and perform work involving bending, kneeling, climbing, and working in trenches
• Ability to work outdoors for extended periods in varying weather conditions
• Strong commitment to jobsite safety and following direction
• Reliable attendance, strong work ethic, and team‑oriented mindset
• Clear communication skills and respect for the chain of command
• A valid Driver’s License and clean driving record are preferred.

The following experience is not required, but will be viewed as a strong differentiator and may support placement at a higher pay rate:

• Three or more years of civil construction experience with a focus on underground utilities
• Ability to read and interpret construction blueprints and layouts
• Experience installing PVC, HDPE, and ductile iron pipe
• Proficiency with pipe lasers, trench boxes, saws, and specialized utility tools
• Experience performing hydrostatic or air pressure testing
• Demonstrated ability to mentor junior laborers and lead by example on site
• OSHA 10 or other relevant safety certifications

At Alpha Inc., you are not just filling a labor position — you are joining a company committed to long‑term growth, safety, and craftsmanship.

We offer:

• Competitive hourly pay with prevailing wage opportunities
• Steady, full-time work…
