, we do things differently. As a full-stack experiential fabricator, we're not just making signs--we're building the systems that help people navigate the world around them. Whether it's architectural signage in Banff, wayfinding systems for hospitals, or traffic control signage through our
310-SIGN
division, we deliver smart, high-quality solutions that make a lasting impact.
We're looking for a
driven and detail-oriented Sign Fabricator
to join our team and help power the engine behind our 55,000-square-foot facility on the south side of Edmonton.
What Makes This Role Unique
Hi Signs operates several distinct brands--like
Banff Sign Co.
and
310-SIGN
--that all share one powerful engine: our
production team

custom fabrication projects
and
high-volume signage manufacturing
.
You'll have variety in your day--from welding architectural components to assembling sign structures. No two days are the same--and that's just how we like it.
