Strong understanding of scenic construction techniques and fabrication best practices.
Self-starter with the ability to learn quickly, adapt to changing production requirements, and work efficiently with minimal supervision.
Excellent attention to detail and commitment to quality craftsmanship.
Strong communication and teamwork skills.
Ability to manage multiple priorities and meet tight production deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
Experience in live event, theatrical, television, film, experiential marketing, trade show, or entertainment fabrication environments is highly preferred.
