Overview:

We design and build immersive, interactive sets and environments that transport guests to entirely new worlds-combining craftsmanship, storytelling, and technical precision to create unforgettable experiences in the entertainment and attractions industry.

As a Scenic Carpenter, you'll be part of a tight-knit fabrication team that turns design concepts into reality. From architectural set pieces and large-scale cabinets to finely crafted wooden props and specialty scenic elements, you'll build a wide variety of components that are both beautiful and functional. Every piece you create will be installed in a real-world interactive experience that thousands of guests will engage with firsthand.

This is a fast-paced, deadline-driven production environment that rewards focus, pride in workmanship, and a shared commitment to delighting our guests. You'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with specialists in CNC machining, finishing, scenic painting, and technical effects-each playing a role in bringing complex, multi-layered environments to life. The people who thrive here are problem-solvers, collaborators, and mission-driven builders who find real meaning in delivering joy and awe through hands-on craftsmanship.

We're not just a woodshop-we're a hospitality-first company. If you believe that carpentry can be a vehicle for creativity, storytelling, and purpose, this could be the place you stay and grow
