About the role

Carter Lumber in Lansing, MI is seeking a hands-on team member to join our truss fabrication line. You will follow a startup checklist, assemble frameworks, position lumber, fasten plates, roll out final products, and perform quality checks throughout the process. We value manufacturing experience, teamwork, carpentry skills, and the ability to lift up to 100 pounds, with room to grow within a family-owned company that has served builders for decades.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
