BLOX is the prime manufacturer in the Design Manufacture Construct (DMC) system. We manufacture huge building chunks that can transported and assembled on site into complex buildings quickly.

DMC is a building delivery system that uses powerful design to leverage manufacturing productivity so that construction is simple. Our vision is to make a better world by making better buildings. Our mission is to make things that strengthen our clients, enhance our communities and advance our professions, and our goal is to (build the machine to) make buildings twice as good, twice as fast, and with twice the value of those made by anyone anywhere – 2x2x2.

  • Conduct pre-operational checks on equipment to identify and address any potential issues or malfunctions.
  • Operate equipment in a controlled and responsible manner to avoid damage to equipment, property, and the environment.
  • Troubleshoot and address equipment malfunctions or operational difficulties, seeking assistance as needed.

  • Proven experience as a heavy equipment operator, with a strong understanding of various types of heavy machinery.
  • Proficiency in operating and controlling heavy equipment in a safe and efficient manner.
  • Strong knowledge of equipment maintenance and troubleshooting techniques.
  • Solid understanding of construction and excavation processes, along with the ability to read blueprints and project plans.
  • Exceptional hand-eye coordination and spatial awareness.
  • Ability to work well within a team and communicate effectively with coworkers and supervisors.
  • Strong commitment to safety and adherence to established safety protocols.
  • Physical stamina and ability to work in various weather conditions and challenging environments.
  • Good problem-solving skills and the ability to make decisions quickly and effectively.
  • Willingness to learn and adapt to new equipment and technologies.
  • Valid driver's license and reliable transportation to reach job sites.
