What Your Day Looks Like Step into a ground-up design-and-build environment supporting large OEM programs. As one of six new hires, you'll move from concept to finished tooling—owning the craft that turns prints into flawlessly running dies. Your Impact Create production-ready dies for multiple manufacturing applications, from first sketch to final tryout. Set up and run lathes, mills, and surface grinders to machine precision components. Form, cut, fit, assemble, spot, and draw dies to exacting standards. Shim, hand-fit, file, weld, and polish while holding tight tolerances throughout. Verify performance—inspect, measure, and test against specifications and quality targets. Partner with engineers and production teams to refine concepts and improve designs. Service, troubleshoot, and rebuild existing tools to extend life and performance. Document setups, changes, and repairs with clear, accurate records. Maintain safety-first habits and keep the work area clean, organized, and audit-ready. What You Bring High school diploma or equivalent; technical training in machining is a plus. Hands-on experience as a die maker or closely related tooling role in manufacturing. Deep familiarity with machining processes, tooling, and shop practices. Ability to read and interpret blueprints and technical drawings accurately. Strong analytical mindset, fine attention to detail, and creative problem solving. Clear communication and collaborative approach within cross-functional teams. Curiosity and adaptability to embrace new technologies and processes. Core Proficiencies Progressive metal stamping and forming CNC machine setups and changeovers Tool, die, and mold repair Blueprint literacy and GD&T awareness Join a shop where craftsmanship, precision, and collaboration build the dies that keep major OEM production moving.
