AddressPosition Purpose:

Set builds can be as simple as a small bedroom or as complex as a large kitchen or deck.

This role requires physical strength, the ability to work solo or within a team, high-level problem-solving skills, the ability to read and interpret technical drawings and work comfortably in a deadline-driven environment.
