Job Description

Bird Dog Construction | Custom Home Builder/Remodeler | NW Denver Metro | Full-time, Monday to Friday | Contract-to-hire | $27 to $31/hr (about $56k to $64k/yr)

How we hire: this role starts with a 60-day contract period so we can make sure we're the right fit for each other. If it's a match, you're hired on full-time with the benefits below.

You've framed, you've worked on real jobsites, and you've started leading people. Now you want to learn how to run the whole job. We'll train you to get there, our way.

We're a small custom home builder and remodeler in the northwest Denver metro. We don't chase volume.

We take the time on every job and do it right, with subcontractor teams we trust and systems that work.

We need someone in the field who sweats the details, keeps the owner in the loop, and represents us well in front of clients and architects.

What you'll do

• Be on site by 8 AM and be the owner's eyes and ears in the field: what's actually happening, not what's supposed to be happening
• Read the plans and make sure subs build to them. If something doesn't match, stop, check the plans, and call the owner before it gets built
• Put every site change in writing. No handshake changes, no "he said, she said"
• Write a specific, detailed daily log with photos in Buildertrend before you leave the site, every day
• Be on site for every milestone (pours, framing, rough-ins, drywall, final) and capture photos and video
• Keep sites clean, especially in clients' homes. End every day picked up
• On smaller jobs, do the work yourself: light framing, doors, trim, protection, cleanup, and dump runs

Who you are

• Hands-on residential construction experience, ideally framing or carpentry, plus some time leading a crew
• Detail-oriented: you catch problems early and still keep the job moving
• You overcommunicate, in writing and in person, and report back without being chased
• You represent the company well: professional, courteous, and comfortable working in clients' homes
• Coachable: you take constructive criticism and follow a proven system
• Your own pickup truck, a valid driver's license, and a smartphone

This is not the job for you if you've been a superintendent for 15 years and have your own way of doing things. We want someone who brings their skills and learns ours.

What you get

• $27 to $31/hr depending on experience, from day one
• Once you're hired full-time after the contract period: Colorado paid sick leave, 5 days PTO your first year (10 days starting year two), paid holidays, a $400/month vehicle allowance, and raises based on performance
• Training from the owner and a clear path to superintendent

How to apply

Apply by 11/24/2026 through this posting with your resume and a few photos of work you're proud of. Tell us about a time you caught a problem on site before it got expensive.
