We are looking for someone with a strong background in hands-on construction, remodeling, finish work, mechanical systems, project coordination, and problem solving.

This role may involve detailed installation projects that include framing, trim, tile, masonry, drywall, venting, gas piping, electrical coordination, and finished interior construction.
