GeoSearch is actively seeking a Field Surveyor/Engineer in Aberdeen, SD! The ideal candidate will have 2+ years of experience in a Field Surveyor role using a total station or laser scanners. This is a full-time, 1-year term role working on-site. Projects after this assignment may be in another location or state so flexibility on travel/relocation in the future would be ideal. Competitive pay and relocation assistance provided.

In this role, you'll be wearing a construction-certified AR hardhat and using it to eliminate construction and design errors on site, which would otherwise lead to costly and time-consuming rework. You'll visualize the design models in holograms through the visor, and provide regular updates of potential clashes/errors in what has been, or is to be, installed by verifying what you're seeing in front of you.
