About the role

Kiewit is seeking a Lead Licensed Boat Operator to support survey teams and crew on vessel operations. The role includes transportation of personnel and materials, daily logkeeping, and strict adherence to safety and USCG policies. Qualifying candidates must hold TWIC, a valid 100-ton USCG Master license, and a radar endorsement (or willingness to obtain). The position requires long hours, heavy lifting, and the ability to live aboard during rotations.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
