• No experience required — we'll train you on real fabrication and repair skills you'll carry for the rest of your career
• Hands-on, always-moving work — no desk, no cubicle, just a busy shop and a crew that gets it done

• Physically ready for the work — able to regularly lift, carry, push, and pull up to 50 pounds; stand, walk, bend, kneel, and reach throughout your shift; handle large, bulky vinyl materials; and work indoors (sometimes in wet or humid areas) and occasionally outdoors in varying temperatures
• Comfortable wearing required PPE, including gloves and eye protection, for a full active shift
