• Safely operate hand tools, power tools, and construction equipment
• Identify potential issues and communicate them to the Foreperson or project leadership
• Maintain K&D's standards for quality and workmanship
• Keep job sites clean, organized, and safe
• Follow company safety procedures and job-site requirements
• Work effectively with other carpenters, subcontractors, and trades
• Represent Kreider & Diller professionally while working at customer and project locations

• Ability to work independently and as part of a crew
• Knowledge of basic job-site safety practices
• Valid driver's license
• Physical ability to lift and move construction materials, work on ladders and at heights, and perform construction work in varying weather conditions

No specific degree or certification is required.

Compensation & Schedule

• Performance-based bonus opportunity
• Monday through Friday
• 7:00 AM–3:30 PM
