Job DescriptionJob Description
Overview:
We design and build immersive, interactive sets and environments that transport guests to entirely new worlds, combining craftsmanship, storytelling, and technical precision to create unforgettable experiences in the entertainment and attractions industry.
As a Set & Prop Assembler, you’ll bring that vision to life by assembling hundreds of different bespoke components and scenic subassemblies. From moving props and hinged mechanisms to specialty furniture, switch panels, and custom scenic pieces, every day brings a new challenge. This isn’t a line job—it’s creative, hands-on, and deeply collaborative work where problem-solving and craftsmanship are at the heart of what you do.
You’ll use blueprints and technical drawings to build detailed products using adhesives, saws, fasteners, wiring, electronics, and specialty hardware. Many parts come from CNC, paint, or fabrication, but you’ll be the one to fit them together, troubleshoot gaps, and deliver fully realized assemblies ready for installation in a guest-facing environment.
Successful backgrounds (but not a requirement):
HVAC
automotive repair
small engine mechanics
theatrical props, cabinetry
general mechanical assembly
If you love intricate builds, enjoy working with your hands, and thrive in fast-paced environments where no two days are the same, you’ll fit right in. The people who succeed in this role are part artist, part builder, and part puzzle-solver, with a deep appreciation for detail, variety, and the guest experience.
