Job description

Description
The Opportunity

Alpha Inc. is looking for a Civil Foreman who leads from the front - someone who commands respect on the jobsite, protects their crew like family, and delivers work that stands the test of time.

This is not a clipboard-only role. This is boots on the ground, eyes on safety, hands on the plan, and full ownership of outcomes.

You are the connection point between strategy and execution, management and crew, plans on paper and iron in the dirt.

If you take pride in running tight jobsites, developing people, and holding the line on safety, quality, and accountability - this role was built for you.

About Alpha Inc.

Founded and grown on Maui, Alpha Inc. is a locally owned leader in heavy civil construction, concrete, drilling, energy, and infrastructure solutions. We build projects that matter - for communities, for crews, and for future generations.

Everything we do is grounded in our three core values:

  • Lead with Heart - We protect our people, treat each other with respect, and lead with humility.
  • Strength in Unity - One crew, one mission. We win together or not at all.
  • Alpha Mentality - We take ownership, pursue excellence, and raise the standard every day.
