About Us

Creative Stonecraft Inc. is a Saskatchewan-based manufacturer of architectural stone and brick veneer products, supplying builders, contractors, and distributors across Western Canada.

As we continue to grow, we are investing in new product development, mold-making capabilities, manufacturing technology, and process improvements.

We are looking for a motivated, creative, and hands-on individual to join our team as a Junior Process Improvement & Mold Development Technician.

About the Position

This is a hands-on technical position combining mold making, product development, manufacturing process improvement, and quality-control support.

This is not a desk-based position. We are looking for someone who enjoys building things, working with their hands, experimenting with materials, and solving practical problems.
