Upholsterer/Framer (Langkaan)

An Upholstery Framer’s primary role is to build, assemble, and reinforce the structural wooden or metal frameworks that form the core of high-quality furniture and appliances. Main duties include reading production sketches, cutting structural lumber, securing joints using heavy-duty fasteners, and applying padding or webbing to prepare the piece for final fabric covering.

This role is responsible for the foundational strength, stability, and geometric accuracy of every piece produced. Additionally, the Upholstery Framer must maintain a highly organized assembly area, handle heavy materials safely, and collaborate closely with sewers and upholsterers to ensure frameworks match textile patterns perfectly with zero defects.

🚀 Career Growth Opportunity: We are looking for highly robust and meticulous builders! Upholstery Framers who consistently achieve flawless structural precision, maintain zero framework alignment defects, and optimize assembly speed will be prioritized for career advancement opportunities, such as Master Framer, Assembly Line Supervisor, or Production Shop Foreman. 🎯

🎯 Our Mission: To transform raw materials into high-quality appliances and furniture through precise craftsmanship and optimized production workflows. This team serves as the "Engine Room" of the company, ensuring that every product built is durable, aesthetically superior, and manufactured with minimal waste to provide maximum value to our customers. 📈

🛑 Primary Objective: To maintain a "Zero-Defect" quality standard and achieve a high Production Efficiency rate, ensuring that all work orders are completed according to the master schedule without compromising safety or structural integrity. ⚖️

🤝 Our Internal Customers: You will collaborate across the corporate ecosystem by aligning with:

• Sales & Corporate Fulfillment (to provide products for won bids)

• Warehouse/Logistics (to turn over finished goods for delivery)

• Purchasing (to provide feedback on material quality) 💼

⚡ The Team Vibe: Disciplined, meticulous, and solution-oriented. The culture is built on "Pride in Craftsmanship"—where "Good Enough" is never the standard, and where safety and precision are non-negotiable. It is a world of steady hands, technical expertise, and a relentless drive for process improvement. 🧠

🪚 Framework Fabrication: Cut, shape, and assemble solid wood, engineered wood, or metal components to construct heavy-duty frames for sofas, chairs, and custom furniture.

🔩 Structural Reinforcement: Secure joints and stress points using glue, screws, dowels, staples, and corner blocks to guarantee maximum structural integrity.

📐 Blueprint Interpretation: Analyze technical drawings, spec sheets, and templates to build foundations that perfectly match design dimensions.

🛋️ Webbing & Spring Installation: Install serpentine springs, webbing, and basic foam padding to prepare completed frames for the final upholstery and sewing teams.

🛠️ Tool & Safety Maintenance: Safely operate pneumatic staple guns, drills, industrial nailers, and power saws, keeping all machinery and workstations hazard-free.

🎓 Education: High School Diploma, Technical/Vocational graduate, or equivalent practical apprenticeship in Furniture Making, Carpentry, or Framing is preferred.

⏳ Experience: Proven experience in framing, furniture manufacturing, woodworking, or rough carpentry on an industrial assembly floor.

🛠️ Technical Skills:

• Proficiency with pneumatic fastening tools, industrial nail guns, drills, and cutting equipment.

• Solid knowledge of furniture joinery methods, structural stress points, and wood species.

• Strong mathematical and spatial skills to ensure square, level, and accurate frame dimensions.

✨ Soft Skills:

• Meticulous attention to alignment, angles, and structural squareness 🔍

• High physical stamina and strength required for heavy lifting and repetitive assembly ⚡

• A disciplined approach to keeping pace with a fast-moving master production schedule 📅

• Strict adherence to shop floor safety regulations and process improvement targets 📈📈

🧠 Practical training and mentorship in advanced framing engineering, specialized industrial tooling, and manufacturing ergonomics.

✅ Direct exposure to structural quality analytics, material yield optimization, and high-volume commercial furniture fulfillment.

📈 Clear pathways to leadership roles and technical specialization within a highly organized, craftsmanship-driven industrial environment.

📍 A safe, stable, and highly collaborative master production workshop. 🏫
