About Vought Construction Vought Construction is a premier builder specializing in high-end, luxury homes and complex remodels in the Bay Area. We work from Berkeley to Hillsborough, Marin to Lafayette. Devon Vought founded the company in 2010, starting as a handyman doing small projects — and now building award-winning luxury homes. We've built a real career pipeline: Assistant Project Manager → Project Manager → Production Manager. Promotions are based on demonstrated competency, not tenure. We invest heavily in our people because the goal is for you to grow with us. How We Work — Schedule Autonomy (Both Roles) This is not a typical 9-to-5. A lot of this job happens on Zoom, on site, and in the office — and it shifts day to day. You'll be in required weekly meetings (Monday team call, weekly scheduling meeting, weekly client site meetings). Some days you'll be on jobsites. Some days the office makes more sense. Some days working from home means less driving and more output. You are responsible for your own schedule and tracking your own time. If you need to take two hours in the middle of the day for a doctor's appointment and work later that afternoon, that's totally fine. We trust you to manage yourself like a professional — and we expect you to deliver like one. Role 1: ASSISTANT PROJECT MANAGER — $30–$40/hr DOE This is a growth role. We'll train the right person.
