The Role

As a Construction Team Member, You Will:

  • Learn. Start as an Installer, no experience required. We train you on every tool, every process, every safety standard from day one.
  • Master. Move from Installer to Lead Installer to Team Lead on skill, not tenure. The better you get, the faster you move.
  • Earn. Once you're a Lead Installer or Team Lead, your crew's efficiency drives an uncapped bonus. Skill shows up in your paycheck, not just your title.

  • Overtime pays out: Extra hours mean extra pay. Every time.
  • Weekends are yours: Early start, early end, Monday through Friday. No weekend work.
  • Year-round stability: 50+ years, zero seasonal layoffs. We've only grown.
  • Uncapped earning potential: Once you're a Lead Installer or Team Lead, your crew's efficiency drives your bonus. Top performers earn up to $150,000 annually. No cap.
  • Full benefits: Medical, dental, vision, life insurance, 401(k) with 5% match, 2 weeks PTO, holiday pay, per diem for overnight travel.

Who You Are

  • No construction experience? No problem. We train the trade from the ground up. What you bring is the willingness to learn it right.
  • You show up. Every day, on time, ready to work. Reliability isn't optional to you, it's who you are.
  • You want to build a skill, not just clock hours. The trade is something you master, not just something you do.
  • You take pride in your work. When a homeowner sleeps easier because of what you built, that means something to you.
  • At your best when the bar is high, the pace is fast, and the rewards match the effort.
  • You'd rather do a job well than do it fast. Corners don't get cut on your watch.

  • Starting Pay: $17–$21/hour, depending on experience, plus bonus potential.
