Welder Fabricator, Day - 1st Shift

Welder Fabricator – Day, 1st Shift

Conveyor Concepts (CCMich) | Coopersville, MI

Conveyor Concepts of Michigan (CCMich) is an engineer-driven manufacturing company that designs and builds custom material-handling systems and structural steel components. Our fabrication team works directly from drawings to produce one-of-a-kind and small-run weldments—not repetitive production parts.

This role is ideal for an experienced welder/fabricator who takes pride in fit, finish, and accuracy, and who enjoys working in a hands-on shop environment where quality and teamwork matter.

Important to Know Before Applying

This is not a production-line welding role.

We are looking for fabricators who can read drawings, fit parts accurately, and think through the build, not just weld pre-set parts all day.

You’ll be expected to:

• Work from prints and layout drawings
• Fit, tack, weld, and finish parts with minimal rework
• Use cranes, jigs, and fixtures to safely position large weldments
  
  
  

Why You’ll Like Working Here

• Four 10-hour shifts (Monday–Thursday)
• Limited overtime: Half-day Fridays when needed
• No mandatory weekends: Saturdays are voluntary; Sundays are never scheduled
• Safety-first culture: PPE, safety boots, and prescription safety glasses provided
• Stable employment: We work hard to keep our team working steady hours year-round
• Hands-on leadership: Supervisors are on the floor and available
• Small-business environment: You’re known by name and your work is noticed
• Monthly catered lunches and free snacks daily

• Measure and verify parts using tape measures, squares, and layout tools
• Set up and operate fabrication equipment including flame cutters, grinders, and drill presses

What We’re Looking For

• 2 years of welding and fabrication experience
• Strong ability to read and interpret blueprints
