About the role
The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA) is seeking a skilled Gallery Fabrication Shop Preparator I to produce and finish casework for exhibitions and the collection. You will work onsite, collaborating across departments to ensure high-quality fabrication that meets safety and institutional standards.
The role requires reading fabrication drawings, maintaining the shop, and contributing to a team that upholds sustainability and craft.
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.
