PRODUCTION SUPERINTENDENT
- Are you inspired?_

**Our company**:
For over 80 years and four generations, our family has been inspired by forests and the endless possibilities for designing and building with wood. We began as a horse-logging operation in 1939 and have grown to become an industry-leading mass timber provider with a high-tech sawmill. From seedlings to solutions, we see our products through the entire process -- from forest management to manufacturing, design, prefabrication, and delivery.
