Lead Carpenter / Construction Supervisor (Residential)

Be Part of Los Angeles's Rebuild

Heyday Build is focused on rebuilding custom homes in the Altadena area following recent wildfires, contributing to the restoration of local neighborhoods through high-quality, sustainable construction. If you're a boots-on-the-ground leader who thrives in fast-paced environments and cares about building beautiful, lasting structures, this is your opportunity to join a high-impact team from the start.

With 25 years of experience, Heyday Build is driven by a commitment to excellence, sustainability, and community impact, with a focus on rebuilding homes in the Altadena area.

We're seeking a Construction Supervisor to lead daily field operations and ensure our custom home projects are delivered efficiently, safely, and to the highest standards. You will be the go-to person on site, managing subcontractors, coordinating schedules, solving problems, and keeping quality and timelines on track. You will also serve as a key liaison between the project manager, trades, and clients, so strong communication and organizational skills are essential. This is a full time, salaried supervisory role focused on site leadership rather than hands on construction labor.

Key Responsibilities

  • Supervise daily site operations for multiple custom home projects
  • Coordinate and schedule subcontractors, inspections, and deliveries
  • Ensure high standards of workmanship, safety, and compliance
  • Monitor project timelines, budgets, and quality assurance
  • Maintain accurate site documentation and daily logs
  • Communicate clearly with project managers, clients, and tradespeople
  • Solve issues proactively and maintain a clean, safe job site
  • Contribute to creating a collaborative, high-functioning construction team

Qualifications

  • 5 or more years of experience as a Superintendent in residential construction
  • Experience managing custom or high-end homes preferred
  • Fluency in both English and Spanish required
  • Strong understanding of construction scheduling, code compliance, and quality control
  • Ability to read and interpret construction drawings and documents
  • Comfortable with technology, including tablets, apps, and construction management software
  • Valid driver's license and ability to travel between job sites
  • OSHA 30 certification preferred

Compensation & Benefits

  • Full time position
  • Competitive salary range at $80,000 to $100,000 per year, based on experience
  • Health benefits are planned as the company grows
  • Paid time off and holidays
  • Room for growth within a scaling company
  • Purpose-driven work supporting community rebuilding efforts
