Job Title: Tower Technician II (Microwave Specialist) Location: Eastern Idaho (Regional Travel Required) Position Type: Full-Time Compensation: $25.00 - $29.00 / hour (Depending on Experience) + Weekly Pay

What's In It For You?

Are you an experienced tower climber ready to elevate your career with a nationwide industry leader? At B.H. Inc. (BHI), we treat our team like family, not just numbers on a clock. We provide a supportive, high-growth environment along with an exceptional compensation package:

• $25.00 - $29.00/hr with reliable weekly pay.
• We completely handle and pay for your hotel lodging (zero out-of-pocket costs), provide fully maintained company vehicles for transit, and give you a daily meal allowance (per diem).
• We structure our production schedules so that crews are home for most weekends to rest and recharge with family.
• Comprehensive health, vision, dental, and life insurance.
• A 401(k) plan with company match, plus generous paid time off (PTO).

As a Tower Technician II specializing in microwave systems, you will work closely with your Field Foreman to safely execute critical point-to-point and point-to-multipoint link deployments.

Responsibilities

• Microwave Rigging & Climbing: Safely climb a variety of structures (cell towers, monopoles, guyed towers) up to 500+ feet, assisting with heavy rigging plans to hoist microwave dishes (2ft to 6ft+), radomes, and waveguides.
• Path Alignment Assistance: Assist with the pathing and panning process, fine-tuning dishes to optimize Received Signal Level (RSL) values.
• Technical Installation: Install and terminate outdoor units (ODUs), indoor units (IDUs), coax, fiber optic trunk lines, hybrids, and grounding systems to strict manufacturer specifications.
• Testing & Mentorship: Assist with line sweeps and pathing software testing to troubleshoot physical line issues, while setting a strong safety example (100% fall protection) for newer Tower Tech I crew members.

Qualifications

We are looking for a self-driven professional who pays sharp attention to detail, maintains absolute integrity, and prioritizes field safety.

• 1 to 3+ years of active tower climbing experience, with direct exposure to installing microwave dishes or heavy rigging preferred.
• A valid Competent Climber / Tower Rescue certification and a minimum of OSHA 10.
• Willingness to commit to a 100% travel schedule during the workweek. While we aim to be home most weekends, telecom schedules move fast—you must be flexible to work occasional weekends to hit critical client cutovers or beat weather windows.
• Must be authorized to work for any employer in the United States (we are unable to sponsor visas at this time).

B.H. Inc. is an Equal Opportunity Employer, including disability and vets.
