Window Treatment Installer – All Levels (Technician I–III / Installation Lead) – Lutek Shading Systems

Lutek Shading Systems is a premier manufacturer and installer of custom architectural shading solutions. We specialize in delivering high-quality, innovative products for commercial and residential projects. As our field operations team continues to grow, we are hiring installers at every level — from entry-level technicians to experienced crew leads. We hire the right person wherever they fall on that range, and we promote from within.

Position Summary

Install manual and motorized window coverings — shades, blinds, draperies, and motorized systems — on commercial job sites throughout the Denver metro area and beyond. Where you start and what you earn depends on your experience. Entry-level Technicians support the crew and learn the trade; experienced Technicians work independently on complex installs; Installation Leads run field measures, manage schedules, and serve as the on-site point of contact for General Contractors and Project Managers. Strong installers move up the ladder, take on harder work, and lead crews.

Career Path

• Installation Technician I — Entry level. Installs basic products and supports the crew. No prior shade experience required.
• Installation Technician II — 1+ year experience. Works with minimal supervision; handles intermediate manual and motorized systems.

• Installation Lead — Leads crews, performs and documents field measures, manages daily schedules, and is the primary field point of contact for GCs and Project Managers.
