Entry Level Woodworker

Entry Level Woodworker position in Gig Harbor, WA. Full-time role with a pay range of $20-$23/hour.

About the role

At RealCraft, we build solid wood doors by hand, and every door starts at the front of the shop. This role is where raw lumber becomes the legs, rails, panels, and jambs that our craftsmen turn into finished doors. You'll rough cut, mill down to size, and feed material toward the gluing station, learning the shop's rhythm from the ground up. If you're physically capable, willing to learn, and want real woodworking skills instead of just a paycheck, this is where you start.
