Job Description

Description:

Position Overview

At Yoder's Components, a Truss Builder is more than a production position - it is an opportunity to learn a skilled trade, become part of a team, and build a long-term career. You will help manufacture quality structural trusses that become part of homes and buildings throughout the communities we serve.

No truss-building experience is required. We are looking for dependable people who are willing to learn, work safely, take pride in what they build, and grow with the company.

What You Will Do

• Move pre-cut lumber and components to the work area and position parts accurately in the truss jig.

• Pull connector plates and follow layouts and cutting bills.

• Work closely with the Truss Setup / Team Leader and production team.

• Install and press connector plates at web and chord joints.

• Coordinate material substitutions with the Production Manager when needed.

• Inspect finished trusses to help ensure they meet Yoder's Components quality standards.

• Move completed trusses through the finish press and prepare them for the next stage of production.

• Keep your work area organized and contribute to an efficient, team-focused production environment.

Safety Comes First

• Follow all company safety policies and procedures.

• Maintain a clean and safe work area.

• Verify safety equipment is functioning properly before operating production equipment.

• Immediately report unsafe conditions, actions, or equipment to your supervisor.

A Career You Can Build On

We want people who are looking for more than their next job. Yoder's Components is a place where someone can start on the production floor, learn the business, develop leadership skills, and create a lifelong career. Team members who demonstrate strong attendance, safety, quality, productivity, teamwork, and leadership can position themselves for additional responsibility and advancement as opportunities become available.

• Hands-on training and the opportunity to learn a valuable manufacturing and construction skill set.

• Opportunities to develop into setup, saw, forklift, team-lead, supervisory, and other operations roles based on performance, ability, and business needs.

• A team environment where dependable people and strong performance are recognized.

• The opportunity to build a career with a growing company while helping build the communities we serve.

Benefits of Joining Yoder's Components

Yoder's Components is committed to creating an employment opportunity people can build their future around. Eligible team members may have access to company benefits and programs based on current plan terms, position, and eligibility requirements. During the hiring process, we will review the current benefits package, compensation, schedules, and available employee programs with you.

What We Are Looking For

• No previous truss experience required; woodworking, construction, or manufacturing experience is helpful.

• High school diploma or GED preferred but not required.

• Ability to read, write, follow instructions, and accurately read a tape measure/ruler.

• Dependable attendance, a positive attitude, willingness to learn, and ability to work as part of a team.

• Commitment to safety, quality, productivity, and taking pride in your work.

Physical & Work Environment

• Regular lifting of up to 50 pounds.

• Standing for eight hours or longer with frequent bending, lifting, and movement.

• Work is primarily performed in a production plant where temperatures can vary significantly by season.

Our Goal

We are not simply hiring someone to fill a spot on a truss table. We want to develop people who can grow with Yoder's Components for years to come. If you are willing to show up, learn, work safely, perform as part of a team, and take ownership of your work, there is an opportunity to build something bigger here - including your own career.
