THE POSITION

Ideum is seeking a skilled and dedicated Fabrication Floor Manager to lead daily operations in our fabrication shop. This full-time, on-site role is essential to maintaining an efficient, clean, and safe facility while ensuring project schedules are met and quality standards upheld. The Floor Manager works under the direction of the Chief Experience Officer (CXO) and collaborates closely with exhibit designers, producers, technicians, industrial designers, and fabricators to manage workflows, review production readiness, and support the successful execution of one-of-a-kind exhibit components. In addition, the Fabrication Floor Manager would help streamline the production of two touch table products that are produced in small batches. Our exhibit and touch table clients are world-famous museums, zoos, aquariums, and Fortune 500 companies located around the world.
This position does not regularly create fabrication drawings. Instead, it focuses on reviewing them, interpreting them, and marking them up, coordinating shop activities, and ensuring that both traditional and digital fabrication tools are operational and ready for use. The ideal candidate is an experienced fabricator with a deep understanding of both analog and digital fabrication methods, and who thrives in a leadership role on the shop floor. This in-person position is at Ideum’s studios in scenic Corrales, New Mexico (near Albuquerque and an hour from Santa Fe).
