Position Summary
San Bar Construction Corp. is a fast-paced roadway construction company specializing in roadway striping, traffic sign fabrication and installation, and guardrail installation. We are seeking a Sign Designer / Print Technician to join our in-house sign shop. This is a hands-on production role, ideal for someone with experience in sign design, fabrication setup, and large-format printing, rather than traditional or marketing-focused graphic design.

- Ensure that all materials and supplies are stocked for uninterrupted production
- Occasionally interact with customers to clarify specifications or provide sign proofs
Qualifications
- Experience in sign design or production, ideally within a fabrication, construction, or municipal signage environment
- Proficiency in Adobe Illustrator (required); experience with FlexiPrint or similar sign-making software is a plus
- Strong computer skills, including the ability to import/export files and manage digital assets
- Understanding of sign construction processes—including materials, substrates, vinyl application, and lamination (training provided)
- Excellent attention to detail, with the ability to manage print queues and prioritize tasks independently
- Strong problem-solving abilities, along with clear verbal and written communication skills
- Reliable, with consistent attendance, a positive attitude, and a solid work ethic
- Comfortable working in a fast-paced, production-driven environment
