Job Description

Shape precision. Build reliability.

Join our toolroom as a Precision Tooling and Die Fabrication Specialist and spend your days transforming prints, sketches, and ideas into production-ready tooling. You will craft, maintain, and improve molds, dies, jigs, fixtures, gauges, prototype and machine parts, material-handling tools, and simple machines that keep our operations running flawlessly.

A day in the life

  • Translate engineering and tool design specifications into finished tooling: fabricate, assemble, inspect, and troubleshoot molds, dies, gauges, jigs, fixtures, prototype components, machine parts, material-handling equipment, and simple machines.
  • Own gauge and fixture compliance: measure critical features against the master print, record findings on fixture qualification reports, and enter details into the quality compliance database.
  • Keep tools production-ready: perform preventive and corrective maintenance on dies, molds, fixtures, gauges, material-handling equipment, and simple machines, recommending improvements to enhance reliability and performance.
  • Work from tool requests, prints, sketches, sample parts, or verbal directions; consult technical manuals, the Machinery’s Handbook, and reference literature to determine speeds and feeds, clearances, and heat-treat requirements.
  • Validate your craftsmanship using precision metrology: micrometers, vernier calipers, height gauges, sine bars, Jo-blocks, surface plates, dial indicators, visual comparators, and CMM equipment.
  • Safely operate overhead cranes to move tools, dies, molds, and materials.
  • Occasionally estimate jobs, prepare material lists, and recommend new tool designs or modifications to existing tooling for better performance.
  • Partner with maintenance personnel to diagnose and repair equipment when needed.
  • Promote a safe, tidy workspace—follow all environmental, health & safety guidelines and collaborate with teammates to identify and eliminate hazards.
