Veterans & SkillBridge
Transitioning? We already speak your language.
Epic Edge is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business. The people running this company made the same transition you are making, and we built the bench around what actually helps: real scope, real credentials, and someone who answers the phone.
You do not need a construction résumé to start. You need a discipline you are serious about and the discipline to run it.
Four pathways onto the bench
Your last 180 days, spent on real scope
Active-duty service members can spend their final 180 days with Epic Edge under DoD SkillBridge — on federal projects, running our equipment, with a named mentor and a documented training plan.
- Placement in a capability lane that matches your MOS or rating
- Command-approved training plan submitted on your timeline
- No cost to your command; you stay on active-duty pay and benefits
Priority review within 24 hours
Applications with a DD-214 on hand move to the front of the bench queue. You get a human review within one business day instead of sitting in a stack.
- Reviewed within 24 hours of submission
- Credential translation from military schools to civilian certifications
- Direct line to the hiring lead, not an inbox
Earn while the benefit pays
Qualifying trades support GI Bill apprenticeship and on-the-job training pathways, so you draw a wage and a housing allowance while you build hours toward licensure.
- Structured hour tracking toward state licensure
- Electrical, fire protection, mechanical, and low-voltage pathways
- Certification costs covered for approved credentials
Ninety days with someone who has done it
Every veteran joining the bench is paired with a senior specialist for the first 90 days — someone who made the same transition and knows where the civilian side gets weird.
- Named mentor from day one, not a rotating pool
- Weekly check-ins through the first three months
- Career mapping toward foreman, PM, or specialist tracks
Specialists build the bench. Awards follow.
Seven steps, about four minutes. Tier A applications are reviewed within 48 hours.
