About Us:
American Millworks is a high-end commercial millwork shop focused on precision-built architectural woodwork. We execute detailed, design-driven projects using premium materials and expect a level of craftsmanship that reflects that standard. Our shop culture values ownership, efficiency, and pride in the finished product.


Position Overview:
We are seeking an experienced craftsman who operates at a high level in a production shop environment. This role is for someone who understands the difference between “getting it done” and executing work to a professional millwork standard—clean, consistent, and correct the first time.


Core Responsibilities:


  • Fabricate and assemble high-end architectural millwork, casework, and custom components
  • Execute work across veneer, plastic laminate, and solid wood with precision
  • Interpret shop drawings and build exactly to spec with minimal oversight
  • Maintain tight tolerances, clean joinery, and consistent finishes
  • Operate shop equipment efficiently (table saw, edgebander, CNC, routers, etc.)
  • Identify issues before they become problems and take ownership of solutions
  • Work collaboratively while maintaining personal accountability for output and quality
Qualifications:


  • 5+ years experience in a commercial/custom millwork shop
  • Strong working knowledge of veneer layup, laminate application, and solid wood construction
  • Ability to read and execute detailed shop drawings without supervision
  • Proven track record of high-quality craftsmanship and production efficiency
  • Strong understanding of materials, sequencing, and build methods
  • Reliable, disciplined, and detail-oriented
Preferred:


  • CNC operation and programming experience
  • Finishing experience (stains, conversion varnish, lacquers)
  • Field installation experience
What Sets This Role Apart:


  • We are not a production-only shop—we build detailed, high-end work
  • You will be surrounded by experienced craftsmen who take pride in their work
  • Expectations are high, but so is the standard of work and environment
  • Opportunity to grow into leadership roles as the company scales
Compensation:


  • Competitive pay based on experience and output
  • Performance-based growth opportunities
