Job description

Location: Casper, WY

Position Type: Full-Time / Field Operations (All Shifts / Heavy Travel)

Starting Pay: $21.00 – $25.00 / hour upon progression to Level I

Perks: $25.00 Daily Per Diem & Company Field Truck provided (Valid driver's license with a clear driving record required)

Job Summary

Are you looking to jumpstart a lucrative career in the oil and gas industry with a company that actively invests in your professional growth? We are seeking hard-working, mechanically inclined individuals to join our team as Entry-Level / Trainee Field Service Technicians.

In this role, you will train directly alongside senior technicians to master the mobilization, installation, and maintenance of specialized surface rental equipment (including manual/automated chokes, mud/gas separators, and flare stacks) on active drilling sites across the Permian Basin.

We provide complete hands-on technical training. Once you master the fundamentals and meet company qualification requirements, you will immediately unlock a structured career path to become a Level I or Level II Technician, raising your earning potential to $21.00 – $25.00 / hour.

Key Responsibilities (What You Will Learn & Do)
  • Equipment Rig-Up Assistance: Learn to properly assemble, rig up, and rig down specialized rental tools, flowlines, manifolds, and surface equipment on drilling locations.

  • Pressure Testing Support: Assist senior crew members in setting up and safely executing hydrostatic pressure testing to ensure total system integrity before drilling begins.

  • Tool Handling & Maintenance: Use basic hand and power tools to clean, maintain, and prep equipment (chokes, valves, separators, and flare stacks) for operation.

  • Safety Observation & Compliance: Strictly adhere to all site safety protocols, wear proper PPE, participate in daily safety meetings (JSAs), and look out for your crew members.

  • Field Adaptability: Embrace a true "Road Warrior" schedule, adapting to a 12-hour field rotation that includes working days, nights, weekends, and holidays in extreme West Texas weather environments.

Technical Progression & Career Pathway

We don't want you to stay a Trainee forever. We track your progress through a clear, skill-based tiered progression:

  1. Trainee: Learn the equipment mechanics, safety perimeter rules, line configurations, and master basic tool operations.

  2. Level I Technician: Master independent rig-up, basic troubleshooting, manual choke operations, and standard hydrostatic pressure verification.

  3. Level II Technician: Gain advanced technical independence, learn to calibrate automated choke control systems, manage high-pressure testing boundaries, and begin mentoring new trainees.

Required Qualifications & Skills
  • Experience: No prior oilfield experience is required! A background in mechanical trades, construction, landscaping, farming/ranching, or military service is highly valued.

  • Driving Record (Mandatory): Must possess a valid Driver's License with a clean driving record to safely operate the provided company field vehicle.

  • Physical Demands: Ability to lift up to 50 lbs regularly, stand for long hours, and work efficiently in harsh, outdoor field environments.

  • Schedule Flexibility: Willingness to work alternating shifts (days/nights), overtime hours, and handle a demanding, fast-paced field schedule.

  • Attributes: Strong problem-solving mindset, punctuality, a strong work ethic, and an eagerness to learn complex mechanical systems.

What We Offer
  • Paid, comprehensive training program from day one.

  • $25.00 Daily Per Diemwhen traveling.

  • Dedicated Company Truck and specialized field tooling.

  • Regular, built-in overtime opportunities.

  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision benefits.

  • Clear, documented blueprint to advance your title and increase your hourly pay.

In compliance with federal law, all persons hired will be required to verify identity and eligibility to work in the United States and to complete the required employment eligibility verification (Form I-9) upon hire. Completion of a background check and/or drug screening may be required as a condition of employment, in accordance with local laws and client requirements.
