Do you love Seattle? Do you want to be part of a company committed to making it safer? Come join Sound Seismic, the city’s foremost earthquake retrofitting company!

We are looking for carpentry-minded individuals who are ready to get their hands dirty and learn our craft. If you share our passion for keeping Seattleites safe, then we’d love to meet you!

You may have seen our yellow trucks around town.

Seismic Retrofitting is the process of making homes SAFER in the event of an earthquake. We install plywood shear panels, bolt houses to their foundations, and use other methods to make homes more STRUCTURALLY SOUND. Get to know us better at http://www.soundseimsic.com
