Location: Boise, ID
Salary Range: $80,000 – $100,000

The Surveyor is responsible for establishing and maintaining precise horizontal and vertical control and providing accurate layout, verification, and as-built documentation for building construction projects. This role works closely with superintendents, project engineers, detailers, and trade partners to ensure structural, architectural, and MEP installations align with design intent, project tolerances, and schedule requirements. The Surveyor supports construction operations through high-accuracy field measurements, control networks, and data management while maintaining the highest standards of quality and safety.

Technical & Field Responsibilities

• Operate and maintain Trimble RTS / Robotic Total Station systems and data collectors

• Utilize Trimble Access for control establishment, stakeout, verification, and as-built capture

• Establish, verify, and maintain site control networks including grid lines, benchmarks, building control, and elevation transfer

• Perform building layout for foundations, concrete, embeds, anchor bolts, steel, framing, and MEP penetrations

• Capture, process, and distribute as-built data for structural, architectural, and MEP systems

• Prepare and manage control points and coordinate files using AutoCAD or AutoCAD Civil 3D (building-layout focused tools)

• Extract and verify layout information from Autodesk Revit models

• Interpret construction documents including structural and architectural drawings, shop drawings, and MEPF models

• Perform instrument calibration, adjustment, and routine maintenance (robotic total station, auto/digital levels, prisms, tripods, poles, data collectors)

Project Coordination

• Coordinate layout and verification activities with superintendents, project engineers, and trade partners to support concrete placements, steel erection, framing, and MEP rough-in

• Support schedule-driven layout needs and critical path activities

• Generate survey deliverables including control reports, slab flatness (FF/FL) checks, settlement and movement monitoring, and as-built records

• Verify dimensional compliance and report discrepancies or conflicts to project leadership

Safety & Compliance

• OSHA 30 preferred

• Work safely in active construction environments including elevated decks, crane swing zones, and congested interiors

• Certified or capable of certification for boom lifts, scissor lifts, forklifts, and standard jobsite equipment

Professional Qualifications

• Strong written and verbal communication skills

• Highly organized with the ability to manage control networks, survey data, and field documentation

• Proven problem-solving ability to resolve dimensional conflicts and unclear or incomplete design information

• Ability to work independently while coordinating closely with field leadership and design teams

This Surveyor role is the quiet authority of the jobsite—translating models and drawings into exact field reality, anchoring every trade to a common coordinate truth, and keeping the project aligned from first control point to final as-built. ?????????
