Millwork Engineer

📍 Hudson, MA | 🕒 Full-Time | On-site or Hybrid (based on experience)

We’re looking for a unique individual interested in carpentry and construction — someone who can bridge the gap between engineering, drafting, estimating and procurement in a custom commercial millwork environment.

We are a growing architectural millwork company delivering high-quality interiors for commercial projects including corporate, healthcare, education, hospitality, and retail. This role is ideal for someone who understands how millwork is designed, priced, engineered, and built — and enjoys being involved early and deeply in the process.

Engineering / Shop Drawings

• Create detailed, production-ready shop drawings in Cabinet Vision
• Engineer custom millwork assemblies from architectural drawings and specifications
• Generate cut-lists, material takeoffs, and CNC output
• Coordinate with project managers and shop staff to resolve constructability issues
• Maintain drawing standards, revisions, and documentation
• Review drawings, specs, and bid documents for commercial millwork projects
• Perform detailed material, hardware, and labor takeoffs
• Build and analyze estimates using Microsoft Excel
• Work with vendors to obtain pricing for specialty materials and hardware
• Assist with value engineering and budget alignment

Purchasing

• Source, negotiate, and purchase materials and hardware for awarded projects
• Shop vendors to secure best pricing, lead times, and availability
• Track and manage material lead times to support project schedules
• Ensure on-time delivery of materials to meet production needs
• Maintain accurate records of purchasing costs and pricing assumptions
• Coordinate closely with project management and the shop to avoid delays or shortages

• Strong proficiency in Cabinet Vision (required)
• Strong proficiency in Microsoft Excel (required)
• 5+ years of experience in custom commercial millwork
• Solid understanding of millwork construction methods, materials, and hardware
• Ability to read and interpret architectural drawings and specifications

• A strong communicator — clear, professional, and collaborative
• Personable and easy to work with across departments
• Humble enough to ask questions, ask for help, and know what you don’t know
• A self-starter who takes ownership and follows things through
• Detail-oriented, organized, and accountable

• You’ll have real ownership across the preconstruction life-cycle - estimating, engineering material procurement
• Your work will directly impact profitability, production efficiency, and quality
• You’ll collaborate closely with project managers, the shop, and leadership
• Stable company with a strong reputation and steady pipeline of work
• Competitive compensation based on experience

If you’re someone who enjoys thinking through how things get built and what they cost, and you want to work with a team that values craftsmanship, accountability, and good people — we’d love to connect.
