Pittsburgh, PA, July 31, 2026 —

The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) is actively recruiting for full-time and seasonal equipment operator positions. To facilitate this recruitment effort, PennDOT will host an open house event in Butler County on August 14th.

The open house is scheduled to provide prospective candidates with multiple opportunities to engage with the department and learn about available roles. Attendees will be able to submit applications on-site, participate in initial interviews, and undergo road tests during the event. These elements are designed to streamline the hiring process for interested individuals.

In addition to the dedicated open house, PennDOT representatives will also be present at the Butler Farm Show. This presence will span the duration of the farm show, from August 10th through August 15th. This offers an extended period for the public to connect with PennDOT staff, inquire about job openings, and express interest in equipment operator positions.

The recruitment drive aims to fill both permanent, full-time equipment operator roles and temporary, seasonal positions. Equipment operators are crucial for maintaining and improving the state’s transportation infrastructure, undertaking tasks such as snow plowing, road repair, and other essential maintenance operations.

Further details regarding the specific location and time for the August 14th open house are expected to be announced. Interested parties are encouraged to attend these events to explore career opportunities within PennDOT.
