We are currently hiring a Shop Belt Fabricator / Utility Field Service Technician. This position is temp-to-perm with full-time employment opportunity for the right candidate.

Position Overview

We are looking for a motivated individual to fabricate conveyor belts by cutting and preparing materials from bulk roll stock to finished dimensions. This position involves manually cutting belts using knives and straight edges, with machine-assisted fabrication processes, and operating various equipment used to prepare and splice belt ends. Quality is our top priority. Orders must be carefully inspected throughout each stage of production, and all completed products undergo a final quality inspection by the supervisor before shipment.

In addition to shop fabrication, employees will provide service in the field when needed at customer's site.

Training

Comprehensive on-the-job training will be provided. New employees will work alongside experienced team members, learning shop and field procedures through hands-on training until they can confidently perform tasks independently.

Following successful completion of the probationary period, employees will begin traveling to customer sites to install and splice conveyor belts. This includes transporting equipment, setting up work areas, and performing installations while adhering to both company and customer-specific safety requirements.

Essential Functions and Qualifications

  • Work at heights and in physically demanding positions, including kneeling, crouching, bending, and working in confined or awkward spaces, particularly during installations.
  • Work a standard 40-hour work week, with overtime as required.
  • Maintain a valid driver's license.
  • Pass a pre-employment drug screening.
  • Lift and carry up to 75 pounds.
  • Accurately read and use a tape measure (metric measurements are used regularly).
  • Safely operate hand tools and perform hands-on fabrication work.
  • Travel for customer installations after completing training.
  • Wear required personal protective equipment, including steel-toe or composite-toe safety boots and safety glasses.

Additional Requirements

  • Availability to work overtime, evenings, weekends, and non-standard business hours when necessary.
  • Safety glasses are required at all times in designated areas.
  • Employees will receive a $100 safety boot reimbursement after successfully completing the probationary period.
