Landscape Construction Crew Lead

Landscape Construction Crew Lead — San Jose, CA $25/hr Training Rate | $28–30/hr Upon Promotion | Full-Time

Bayview Landscape & Maintenance is hiring a hands-on construction crew lead to join a team with 37 years of history in the Bay Area. We build high-end residential projects — hardscape, irrigation, drainage, grading, and poolside landscape installations — and we do it right.

This role starts with a 90-day training period. You'll work alongside our current crew learning our systems, standards, and client expectations. If you're the right person, you'll step into the crew lead role with a pay increase based on your experience.

What you'll be doing:

• Leading a field crew on residential landscape construction projects
• Installing hardscape, irrigation systems, drainage, grading, and planting
• Coordinating daily jobsite operations and keeping work on schedule
• Working in and around pool environments — prior experience or willingness to learn installation standards in these areas is required
• Communicating directly with our project manager and keeping the team aligned

What we're looking for:

• Proven field experience in landscape construction — you've built things, not just maintained them
• Valid California driver's license required
• Bilingual English/Spanish required
• Ability to read a plan, manage a crew, and solve problems without hand-holding
• Someone who takes ownership of the jobsite

Why Bayview:

• 37-year-old company with long-tenured crew — our longest crew member has been with us 36 years
• Stable, year-round work on high-end residential properties
• Direct path to crew lead with pay increase at 90 days
• Leadership that respects the field

Pay: $28.00 - $30.00 per hour

Benefits:

• Opportunities for advancement
• Paid time off
• Safety equipment provided

Work Location: In person
