  • Advanced G.P.R. Corporation is seeking motivated individuals for field positions involving ground penetrating radar and non-destructive testing methods.
  • Candidates should possess strong critical thinking skills and ideally have 1-2 years of relevant experience or education in fields such as construction management or engineering.
  • The role involves working outdoors on active job sites, solving real-time problems, and communicating directly with clients and contractors.

Advanced G.P.R. Corporation is looking for motivated individuals who want more than a traditional desk job. If you enjoy working in the field, solving problems, learning advanced technology, and being part of major construction and infrastructure projects, this may be the right opportunity for you.

GPR stands for Ground Penetrating Radar, which is one of several high-tech, non-destructive testing methods we use to inspect, locate, and help solve problems on construction sites, infrastructure projects, military/government projects, and other specialty job sites. Our work helps clients identify what is below the surface before they cut, core, drill, trench, excavate, or build.

Advanced G.P.R. Corporation is located in South Scottsdale, Arizona, and was founded in 2008. We specialize in ground penetrating radar, concrete scanning, utility locating, subsurface investigation, structural analysis support, and other specialty field services. Our clients rely on us to provide accurate information that helps keep projects safe, efficient, and on schedule.

We are growing and looking for self-motivated, reliable, and career-minded individuals with strong critical thinking skills who want to learn, grow, and build a long-term career in a specialized industry.
