Concrete Finisher / Foundation Lead

Edge Development • Full-time • Clarence, New York State, United States • $25 - $40 / hour • 1m ago

EDGE DEVELOPMENT

Edge Development is a start-up Buffalo-based development and construction firm focused on innovative mixed-use developments, commercial buildings, multifamily communities, and custom residential projects across Western New York. Edge designs, develops, builds, and manages its own projects and serves as a commercial general contractor and residential construction expert for Buffalo-area homeowners, investors, and developers.

Edge is an early-stage start-up organization with a small growing team, the experience to execute at a high level, and the runway to scale operations at a rapid pace. Construction is tough... but Edge makes it fun. By adopting modern methods and tools, including AI, and expanding what we accomplish with our own team, Edge is building a durable advantage over traditional general contracting operations.

The work is demanding and the standards are high. No role here is limited to a job description. In return, the people who join Edge now will grow with the company and lead it as it scales.

THE ROLE

Edge is building concrete capability inside a development company with a multi-year pipeline of multifamily and residential construction. We need someone with real proficiency in concrete flatwork, foundation construction, or both. This is contracted new-construction work on projects we control: footings, walls, slabs, garage floors, patios, walks, and site concrete, with steady volume and a predictable pour schedule.

We are hiring for the person who can take ownership of concrete work from layout through finish. If you have run pours, managed a small crew, and stand behind the quality of what you put in the ground, this role is designed for you. If you are a strong finisher who wants to build toward that, we will train the rest.

Lead concrete work on active projects; layout, forming, reinforcing, placing, and finishing
Foundation construction: footings, frost walls, and foundation walls, including ICF systems (experience valued; training provided)
Flatwork: slabs on grade, garage floors, patios, walks, and site concrete

Work with the construction manager on scheduling and sequencing across concurrent projects
Work with the construction manager on scheduling and sequencing across concurrent projects

QUALIFICATIONS

Proven experience in concrete flatwork, foundation construction, or both
Able to read plans, layout from drawings, and verify grades and elevations
Understands mix design, admixtures, curing, and cold-weather concrete practice for the WNY climate
Experience running a crew or leading pours preferred; strong finishers ready to step up will be considered

Comfortable operating equipment; equipment operating experience a plus

COMPENSATION & BENEFITS

$25 - 40 / hour based on demonstrated skill with opportunity tied to capability rather than tenure and experience

Tool allowance
Vehicle usage reimbursement
Health benefits available
Defined path to crew leadership and construction management
