Current Openings

JETSTREAM, established in 1986, is an irrigation company that installs new sprinkler, lighting and drainage systems (residential and commercial). With over 2,000 established customers, our primary function is servicing existing sprinkler and lighting systems.

Currently we are seeking hard working, physically fit, career minded individuals to join our team.

• Overtime – We offer overtime, something that many companies in our industry and in general do not.
