Connecting the future. Starting with yours.
Cannon builds the power and communications infrastructure the next generation will run on, and we build the people who build it. Apprentices become journeymen, journeymen become foremen, and foremen become the leaders who run our programs. Every opening below posts automatically from our application site.
A career path, not just a job
Cannon's reputation has been built on employee career growth and dedication to the company hallmarks of Safety, Quality, Integrity and Teamwork. Most of the people leading our crews and programs started in the field.
Learn the trade from people who do it
Lineworkers, splicers, drillers, operators, engineers and project managers work side by side. Skills transfer across disciplines, and so do careers.
In-house training facilities
OSHA, EM 385, high voltage awareness, flagger, CPR, equipment and BICSI courses run from our own training centers in Milton and at JBLM.
Training coursesSafety is the first hallmark
Site-specific plans, daily briefings and an experience factor of 0.6947. Every crew member has the authority to stop work.
Safety programWork that lasts
Substations, fiber backbones, river crossings and the installations that depend on them. The infrastructure you build will be in service for decades.
Recent projectsMore like family than a workplace
Every quarter the employee newsletter fills up with the same kind of news: anniversaries counted in decades, crew members promoted from the ground up, families at the ballpark and a food drive that has run for ten years. Cannon also pays for referrals: bring in someone good and the bonus is $1,000.
Careers measured in decades
Our founder started Cannon forty years ago and is still here today, and he's far from the only one who's stayed. Every quarter, our anniversary list is full of foremen, project managers and office staff marking 20 and 30 years with us, and many of them started out on a shovel.
From the ground up
Groundmen become aerial foremen, laborers become project managers and coordinators become project manager apprentices. Cannon Academy, run with industry training experts, and in-house CDL, BICSI and safety training pay for the next step.
Training coursesFamily on the calendar
The Kick Off, Swing into Spring at Emerald Downs, the summer picnic and its Cannon Olympics, a family night at the Tacoma Rainiers are just some of the ways we have brought crews, office staff and their families together.
Part of the community
Giving back is part of how we work. Every fall, we hold a food drive for the Edgewood Food Bank. At the holidays, our teams adopt families through Helping Hand House and St. Francis House. And we support the construction students at Tacoma YouthBuild, helping train the next generation of builders.
"Over the years, Cannon has felt more like family than just a workplace."
Jason Olson, OSP Foreman, 30 years with Cannon
"We help construct and splice fiber for many cell towers in Washington and without fiber to those towers people would not be able to call 911. We also help build fiber to hospitals, banks, and businesses of all kinds. So in essence, we really help the world run."
Dan Murray, Project Manager
