Framer - Framing Carpenter

Framing Carpenter Job Description

We're looking for an experienced Framing Carpenter to join our passionate and creative team in Farmington, New York. We specialize in building and installing panelized enclosure systems using industry-leading, high-performance materials. If you're a self-starter with a strong team-oriented attitude, you'll be a great fit for helping us pre-fabricate and install high-performance wall, roof, and floor panels.

The Role

You'll primarily focus on framing work, spending most of your time in our shop constructing panels using both hand tools and semi-automated equipment. You will also travel to job sites to help with installation. Our standard work schedule is 10-hour days, Monday through Thursday, with optional Fridays for overtime. Projects are typically within a 4–6-hour driving radius, so travel is required, but we offer a generous compensation increase for out-of-town installation work.

Required Experience

• 2+ years of framing or carpentry experience.

• Ability to read and interpret architectural and shop drawings.

• Excellent math and problem-solving skills.

• Strong work ethic and attention to detail.

• Valid NYS Driver’s License with a clean driving record.

Preferred Experience

• Experience in high-performance home building, Passive House construction, or high-efficiency enclosure systems.

• A general understanding of high-performance building envelopes and construction methods.
