For someone who enjoys the intersection of detail, production, and problem solving, this role offers the chance to be deeply impactful. You will work alongside experienced production and shop teams, contribute to practical solutions, and help create the structure behind complex, high visibility exhibit work. This is the kind of opportunity where precision matters, follow through matters, and strong technical thinking is highly valued.
