Carpenter – Custom Fabrication & Scenic Builds

At ID3, no two days in the shop are the same. Our carpenters are builders, problem‑solvers, and craftsmen who take creative ideas and turn them into real structures. From custom scenic builds and exhibits to experiential environments and specialty installations, our carpenters work on projects that challenge their skills and creativity. If you enjoy hands‑on work, building unique projects, and collaborating with a talented fabrication team, you’ll fit right in.

The day typically starts in the shop reviewing project drawings, build plans, and production priorities. Carpenters meet with team leads or project managers to understand what needs to be built, materials required, timeline for fabrication, and any special details that require precision. From there, the team prepares materials and sets up workstations.

• Measuring and cutting materials
• Assembling scenic elements and custom structures
• Building exhibit components and environments
• Working with routers, table saws, drills, and other fabrication equipment
• Collaborating with CAD detailers to ensure accuracy to drawings

Carpenters work with metal fabricators, scenic artists, painters, and graphics teams to bring projects together. They address design changes, adjust builds to fit installation requirements, and ensure structural integrity and finish quality. As projects move toward completion, carpenters help prepare builds for shipping, installation, and on‑site assembly, ensuring everything is accurate, safe, and ready for the next stage of the project.

Successful carpenters often have backgrounds in scenic carpentry, exhibit fabrication, custom fabrication, millwork or specialty builds, or theatrical or production environments. They also bring strong attention to detail, ability to read shop drawings, pride in craftsmanship, and comfort working in a fast‑paced production environment.

At ID3, our carpenters don’t just build structures — they help create experiences, environments, and one‑of‑a‑kind projects.

If you're ready to bring your skills to a shop where creativity and craftsmanship come together, we encourage you to apply.
