Full Job Description

Lead Deck Builder - Build More Than Decks. Build a Career.

At Upright Exterior Services, we're a locally owned, family-operated company known for quality craftsmanship, exceptional customer service, and doing things the right way. What started as an exterior cleaning company has grown into a premier custom deck construction and restoration company serving Southwest Washington and the Portland Metro area.

We're looking for an experienced Lead Deck Builder who takes pride in their work, enjoys mentoring others, and wants to help build a company—not just collect a paycheck.

If you're looking for a place where your experience is valued, your ideas are heard, and your work truly matters, we'd love to meet you.

The Position

As our Lead Deck Builder, you'll oversee custom residential deck projects from layout through final walkthrough. You'll lead a small crew, train newer employees, maintain high quality standards, and work directly with ownership to ensure every project exceeds customer expectations.

This is a leadership role requiring someone who can both build exceptional decks and build exceptional people.

What You'll Do

Lead residential deck construction projects from start to finish
Read and interpret plans and construction drawings
Layout footings, framing, stairs, railings, and decking
Construct wood, composite, PVC, and steel-framed decks
Train and mentor crew members in proper building techniques
Maintain a clean, organized, and safe jobsite
Ensure projects are completed on schedule while maintaining exceptional quality
Communicate professionally with homeowners throughout the project
Work alongside ownership to continually improve our construction processes
Maintain company vehicles, trailers, and equipment

We're Looking For Someone Who Has

Required Qualifications

3–5+ years of verifiable residential deck construction experience
Previous experience leading or training other carpenters
Strong framing and finish carpentry skills
Experience building stairs and railing systems
Ability to read plans and understand building codes
Strong problem-solving abilities
Excellent communication skills
Valid driver's license with a clean driving record
Ability to lift 75+ pounds regularly
Comfortable working outdoors year-round and at heights
Reliable transportation to and from our Vancouver office

Preferred Experience

Experience with:

Fortress steel framing
Trex, TimberTech, Fiberon, Eva-Last, or other composite decking systems
Permit inspections and code compliance
Structural hardware and Simpson Strong-Tie products
Equipment operation (augers, skid steers, mini excavators, etc.)

What Success Looks Like

You are someone who:

Shows up on time every day
Takes ownership of your projects
Leads by example
Treats customers with professionalism and respect
Enjoys teaching others
Pays attention to details that most people overlook
Solves problems instead of creating them
Wants to continually improve your craft

This Probably Isn't the Right Fit If You...

Cut corners to save time
Need constant supervision
Have difficulty accepting feedback
Struggle working as part of a team
Frequently miss work or arrive late
Don't enjoy working outdoors in all weather conditions
Prefer doing the minimum instead of taking pride in your work

Compensation

$28.00–$32.00 per hour to start
(Depending on experience, leadership ability, and proven skill level.)

Opportunities for performance-based wage increases are available as you demonstrate leadership, craftsmanship, reliability, and the ability to help grow our construction division.

Why Join Upright Exterior Services?

Family-owned company with supportive leadership
Local work—you'll be home every night
Overtime opportunities during busy seasons
High-quality tools and equipment provided
Opportunities for continuing education and manufacturer training
Help shape and grow a rapidly expanding deck construction division
Small team where your ideas and contributions make a real impact

We believe great employees deserve respect, honest communication, and the opportunity to grow alongside the company.

Ready to Build Something Great?

If you're an experienced deck builder who enjoys producing exceptional work and leading others, we'd like to hear from you.

Please submit your resume along with a brief summary of your deck construction experience, including the types of projects you've led and your experience training or supervising others.

Only applicants with verifiable deck construction experience will be considered.

Pay: $28.00 - $32.00 per hour

Benefits:

On-the-job training
Paid time off
Tools provided

Application Question(s):

Please describe your deck construction experience in detail.

Include the number of years you've been building decks, the types of decks you've built (wood, composite, PVC, steel framing), and the scope of projects you've personally completed.

Tell us about your experience leading or training others.

Describe the size of the crews you've supervised, how you trained new employees, and what responsibilities you had as the lead on a project.

What makes you qualified to be our Lead Deck Builder?

Please tell us about your strongest carpentry skills, any relevant certifications or specialized training, your experience reading plans and passing inspections, and why you believe you're the right fit for this position.
