Your journey

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.

Grow

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.

Train

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 courses
Work safe

Safety 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 program
Build

Work that lasts

Substations, fiber backbones, river crossings and the installations that depend on them. The infrastructure you build will be in service for decades.

How hiring works

From application to first day

  1. Apply online. Each posting links to a short application on our secure application site. Attach a resume if you have one; experience in the field counts as much as paper.
  2. Hear from recruiting. Our People and Culture team reviews every application and reaches out to schedule a conversation.
  3. Meet the team. Interviews are with the people you would work for, in person or by video, and include a walk through the role and the sites you would work on.
  4. Start right. New hires get their apps, portals and safety orientation set up on day one, with a clear path for the first ninety days.
