Axiom Custom Products

Job description

Axiom

Axiom Custom Products is a fabrication shop that services the creative, events, retail, and construction industries. Axiom leverages its digital manufacturing technologies, fabrication expertise, and decades of trial and error to deliver the highest quality products - an outcome unmatched by any in the industry. We offer our clients extensive in-house capabilities that allow us to take on projects at any stage of development from concept to installation.

Role

We are currently seeking an experienced Installer + Wood Fabricator. You’ll install cabinets, millwork/casework, retail displays, and fixtures, to name a few. To get a feel for Axiom Custom Products' capabilities check us out at www.axiomcustom.com.

Sometimes installs are local, sometimes folks travel anywhere in the country. We are regularly in Seattle, LA, Denver, and NYC. Length of install varies, we try to make travel reasonable. We'll discuss more in-depth at the interview. Travelling to a non-local site requires a passport or Real ID.
When there is downtime from installs, the Installer must be capable and interested in working on production related work such as fabrication in the shop, dry fitting work to ensure it can be installed properly on-site, and preparing for upcoming installs.
The nature of our deadline-driven work means the need to be flexible with your schedule. Installs can mean long days, or even weekend or overnight work. When in the shop, from time to time, there is the option to pick up work on Saturday (and Sunday, less common). Infrequently, we have all-hands weekend work, but if you’ve been travelling, we’ll opt you out unless you want to participate.

You

We are looking for someone good with tools and who has built things -- a lot of things! You must have knowledge of and experience in the installation of high-end products. Every project is different. You’re best suited if you have years of shop + finish carpentry experience with a focus on cabinets and fixtures. Someone who is ambitious, hard working, quality conscience, and focused tends to excel. We're looking for someone reliable that takes pride in their work. Someone who is looking to take on new challenges and work with a variety of products, wood, solid surface, plastic, laminates, and metal to name the typical. If this sounds like you, this may be the place for you!

It is a collaborative environment and we ebb and flow between working with others and working solo. The nature of our projects leaves room for unanswered questions and problem-solving. So, there are a few other things we hope you can do; communicate well, don't be reluctant to become involved or ask questions and possess a willingness to learn regardless of your level of experience.

Reward

We invest in our people, mentor them, empower them to achieve, and offer growth opportunities. Many of our key positions are the result of promoting from within. We offer a fantastic career opportunity with excellent pay, 401k and Roth investment options, and robust medical, dental, vision benefits (with additional cost dependent coverage options). Best yet, in year two and beyond, you accrue 20 days of PTO! Combined with paid holidays, our benefits are some of the best in our industry. Our Installers also receive a per diem for out-of-town travel and we cover all lodging, airfare and transportation.

Culture

It's not stuffy and corporate, it's privately owned by one owner who is involved day-to-day, and has been since 1996; no board of directors, low-key and casual, but professional. We're a full-function team where everyone helps everyone.

Reputation

We have built our reputation on creating awesome experiences for our clients and our team. Friendly, proud hard workers, and oddball thinkers, we project our values every day and work hard to deliver the goods. Acting as one, we’re in it together. We live above the line as optimists with a liberated mindset. We don’t accept “that’s how it’s always been done;” we constantly innovate and use our ingenuity to push limits. It’s what sets Axiom apart.

Wage
The wage range for this role is $28 to $32/hour depending on experience.
