Summary
Advanced Technology Systems Company (ATSC) is seeking an experienced, hands-on experienced framer who can be handed a set of drawings and a deadline and deliver clean, code-correct structural work with minimal oversight. Metal stud framing experience is strongly preferred, though seasoned wood framers with strong finish carpentry and drywall skills will also be considered.

fabrication, and facility improvements while ensuring compliance with applicable building codes, safety regulations, quality standards, and security requirements.
The ideal candidate is detail-oriented, safety-focused, and experienced working in industrial or manufacturing facilities where precision, craftsmanship, and schedule adherence are critical.
This position reports into Production/Construction Operations and works closely with carpentry, Drywall, and finishing crews to keep structural builds on schedule. Framing quality
and pace set the tempo for everything that follows, so this role carries real visibility with production leadership.
