  • Ability to read shop drawings
  • Safe, efficient use of shop tools

Why youll like working here

If you take pride in clean builds and like solving real problems under real deadlines, this is a place where your work shows.



Compensation & Benefits

  • $30$40/hr, based on experience
  • Overtime paid when applicable
