About the Role

• Run hand, power, and pneumatic tools and heavy machinery


• Read printed and digital plans, estimate materials and equipment, and run quality checks


• Keep accurate daily time and materials logs


• Follow OSHA standards, wear your PPE, and keep the job site organized using 5S


• Report to your assigned job site each morning and get started on your own


• Pitch in on general labor like cleanup, inventory, and errands

What You Bring

You might be a great fit if you have:

• 5+ years of professional carpentry experience


• 3+ years of on-the-job construction training, an apprenticeship, or an associate degree in construction


• Confidence reading plans, using measuring tools, and handling materials and equipment


• The strength to lift 75+ lbs regularly, stay on your feet all day, and work at heights in any weather


• The ability to manage your time and work without someone looking over your shoulder


• A professional, friendly presence with clients, and clear communication with your crew, foreman, and vendors
