Full Job Description

About the Role

This is an entry-level position for someone who wants to learn custom woodworking from the ground up. You'll start with shop support, material prep, and production assistance. As you develop skills and prove yourself, you'll take on more technical work and learn the craft of building custom doors and millwork.

Scobis Millwork + Design builds custom wood doors and architectural millwork for residential and commercial clients. We work with Sapele, White Oak, Accoya, Mahogany, Walnut, and exotics. Every project is different. Every piece is handcrafted.

If you want to build a career in woodworking and you're willing to start at the bottom and work your way up, this role is for you.

What You'll Do

Shop support and production (80% of your time):

Keep the shop clean and organized throughout the day
Empty dust collection bags and maintain the dust collection system
Move raw materials from storage to workstations using forklift and hand tools
Prep materials for craftsmen (rough cutting, dimensioning, organizing stock)
Perform glue-ups independently following craftsman specifications
Handle shipping and receiving (unload trucks, check orders, coordinate deliveries)
Organize hardware, supplies, and finished components
Assist craftsmen with material handling during fabrication

Laser engraving (approximately one day per week):

Operate laser engraver for door components, hardware, signage, and promotional items
Run pre-programmed files and learn software as you develop
Prep materials for engraving and quality-check finished work

Learning and skill development:

Shadow craftsmen and ask questions
Learn tool and machinery operation through hands-on training
Take on increasing responsibility as you demonstrate capability
Progress from material prep to processing materials to basic fabrication (typically 3 to 6 months)

You report to the shop manager. This is a support role that transitions into technical work as you prove yourself.

What You Need

No woodworking experience required. We'll train you.

What matters:

Strong work ethic and willingness to start with grunt work
Takes initiative and looks for opportunities to learn
Asks questions and pays attention when craftsmen explain techniques
Punctual, reliable, and consistent
Comfortable with physical work in a production environment
Earns additional responsibility through performance, not time served

Physical requirements:

Lift up to 50 lbs regularly
Stand, bend, and move throughout the day
Work in a shop environment with dust, noise, and machinery

Helpful but not required:

High school diploma or GED
Driver's license
Any hands-on work experience (construction, landscaping, manufacturing)
Basic tool knowledge

We'll train you on:

Forklift operation and materials handling
Shop safety protocols and equipment
Laser engraver operation
Material prep and processing techniques
Woodworking fundamentals

What We Offer

Compensation:

$17 to $20/hour based on experience
Typical work week is 40 to 45 hours with occasional overtime

Benefits:

401(k) with company match
Paid holidays and PTO
Tools and safety equipment provided
On-the-job training in custom woodworking

Shop environment:

Climate-controlled (heated) 30,000 sq ft facility
Modern equipment including HOMAG CNC router, wide belt sander, laser engraver
Work alongside experienced craftsmen who build high-end custom work

Career path:

Start with shop support and material prep
Progress to glue-ups, material processing, and basic fabrication
Learnjoinery, machine operation, and finishing techniques
Potential to advance to mid-level craftsman role

Why This Role Works for the Right Person

You'll learn a skilled trade from people who know what they're doing. We build 100% custom projects with premium materials. You won't see this level of craftsmanship at a production cabinet shop or construction site.

This role starts with sweeping, cleaning, and moving materials. That's not glamorous, but it's how you learn the shop, the materials, and the standards. Craftsmen who do excellent work don't want their time wasted prepping materials or emptying dust collectors. That's where you come in.

If you take initiative, ask questions, and show you're serious about learning, you'll get opportunities to do more technical work. If you just show up and expect promotions for attendance, this won't work.

You'll be part of the team. You'll eat lunch with craftsmen, hear how they solve problems, and see projects go from raw lumber to finished installations in high-end homes and commercial spaces.

We use technology (CNC, laser engraver, modern machinery) to support craftsmanship. If you're interested in how traditional skills and modern tools work together, you'll like it here.

What This Role Is and Isn't

This role IS:

Entry point to a woodworking career
Physical work with increasing technical responsibility
Learning through observation and hands-on training
Proving yourself through work ethic and initiative

This role IS NOT:

Immediate craftsman work (you'll earn that)
A job where showing up equals advancement
Light duty or easy work
A role for someone who just needs a paycheck

If you want to build skills, work with your hands, and learn from experienced craftsmen, apply.

Pay: $15.00 - $20.00 per hour

Benefits:

401(k)
401(k) matching
On-the-job training
Paid time off
Professional development assistance
