Bilingual English/Spanish is a plus What We're Looking ForWe want someone who takes ownership and thinks ahead. If a subcontractor is coming tomorrow, you make sure the site is ready. If materials are needed next week, you identify them before they delay production. If something isn't built correctly, you address it. If a door needs to be installed, drywall patched, trim finished, or a punch list completed, you're willing and able to get it done.
The goal is to keep the entire project moving toward successful completion.

Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
