We are looking for hands-on workers who take pride in precision and want to build products that define city skylines.

Responsibilities

• Interpret Job Prints & Sketches – Review job prints for special instructions, update clock-in numbers, and ensure you have the correct "recipe" for every panel before you begin.
• Perform Critical Quality Inspections – Measure panels to ensure strict dimensional tolerances and visually inspect materials for dents, scratches, or defects. You are responsible for verifying the correct grain direction on every piece.
• Assemble Architectural Panels – Install corner clips, apply caulking, and attach stiffeners and extrusions using hand tools. You must ensure the correct type and color of screws are used to match the specific job sketch.
• Manage Tool & Material Readiness – Retrieve necessary extrusions for the fabrication process and inspect your tools for accuracy/functionality (testing on scrap material if necessary) to prevent errors.
• Execute Final Verification – Conduct a final review to ensure all components match the job sketch perfectly before setting completed panels aside for Quality Control (QC) inspection and labeling.
• Maintain Workflow Efficiency – Work efficiently in a fast-paced environment while keeping your station organized and safe.

The Ideal Candidate

• Blueprint Reader – You can look at a technical sketch and understand exactly where the extrusions and clips need to go.
• Quality Controller – You don't wait for the QC department to find a scratch; you catch it first.
