(SoCal Position) Senior Project Manager – Subsurface & Field Operations Leadership

Culver City, CA

Safe2

Core is strengthening its field leadership division.

We are seeking a senior-level Project Manager who operates with precision, authority, and operational discipline. This role extends beyond scanning — it commands full-spectrum project oversight across subsurface investigation, excavation, and concrete operations.

This is not an entry-level technician role.

This is a field command position.

What You Will Lead & Own
  • High-accuracy concrete scanning and underground utility locating (GPR)
  • Technical interpretation and validation of radar data
  • Oversight of concrete cutting, coring, and structural modifications
  • Coordination of CCTV pipeline inspections
  • Excavation operations, including traditional excavation and hydrovac services
  • Jobsite leadership, scheduling, crew coordination, and workflow control
  • Equipment readiness, calibration, and asset management
  • Enforcement of safety protocols and regulatory compliance
  • Direct client communication and professional report delivery

You will represent Safe2

Core in the field.

Execution quality reflects leadership.

Whom We Are Looking For
  • Advanced expertise in GPR scanning and subsurface utility locating
  • Proven ability to interpret and validate radar data
  • Strong background in excavation and hydrovac operations
  • Experience overseeing concrete cutting, coring, and full concrete scopes
  • Working knowledge of CCTV inspection technologies
  • Demonstrated project management and crew leadership capability
  • High-level safety discipline and compliance awareness
  • Professional communication skills with clients and inspectors
  • Construction and infrastructure experience strongly preferred.
  • Leadership presence required.
Our Standard

We operate at a premium level.

Our work prevents catastrophic damage, protects critical infrastructure, and defines precision before execution. We deliver performance, not excuses.

If you lead from the front and take pride in technical excellence, we want to speak with you.
