Summary:
This SkillBridge opportunity is a 60-day training program that prepares transitioning service members for a full‑time career as a Project Safety Specialist supporting construction, power generation, and renewable energy projects, including solar, battery energy storage systems (BESS), substations, and transmission & distribution (T&D) work. Participants will gain hands‑on, field‑based experience in dynamic jobsite environments, supporting hazard identification, jobsite inspections, safety meetings, and day‑to‑day safety execution. Under the mentorship of experienced safety professionals, participants will help promote a strong safety culture through coaching, training, and engagement with project teams and subcontractors, while assisting with the development and maintenance of site‑specific safety documentation such as Site Safety Plans, Emergency Response Plans, Job Hazard Analyses (JHAs), and Site Orientation materials.

The role also provides exposure to incident management and injury support, including incident investigations, root cause analysis, corrective action tracking, emergency response readiness, severe weather response, permit‑to‑work processes, and maintenance of safety metrics and reports. Participants will gain practical experience with common construction and industrial hazards such as electrical safety, confined space, fall protection/work at height, material handling, mobile equipment, cranes, and trenching/excavation, while strengthening technical writing, communication, and regulatory awareness aligned with OSHA‑style requirements.

This opportunity is ideal for service members from safety, fire protection, construction, engineering, emergency response, industrial operations, or logistics backgrounds, including roles such as Air Force Safety (1S0X1), Fire Protection/Firefighter, Navy Seabees (BU/CE/EO/SW), Army Engineers (12‑series), Damage Controlman, or those who held additional duty safety responsibilities in operational units.

Anticipated October 2026 SkillBridge start. Service members interested in a full-time position at the end of the training program should note that the full-time position requires heavy travel (76-100%) on a rotation basis. The training location is anticipated to be in Golden Shores, AZ or Kempner, TX. Final location will be determined closer to the training program start.
