Clean and maintain tooling components using approved processes and materials.
Assemble, reassemble, and organize tooling according to instructions or diagrams.
Ensure tools are free of debris, properly labeled, and prepared for machine builders or engineers.
Keep tooling storage areas neat, structured, and well inventoried.
Assist in identifying worn or damaged tooling and reporting it to supervisors.
Follow safety guidelines and maintain a clean, orderly work environment.
Support team members with additional tasks related to tool prep and organization.
Basic mechanical aptitude (comfortable handling hand tools).
Ability to follow written and verbal instructions accurately.
Strong attention to detail — ability to keep tools clean, organized, and properly prepared.
Reliable and consistent work habits in a production environment.
Ability to stand for extended periods and lift up to 40 lbs.
Experience in a shop, warehouse, or tooling environment.
Familiarity with basic tool components (arbors, fixtures, holders, etc.).
Experience using simple measuring tools (calipers, indicators) is a bonus but not required.
Low barrier to entry — ideal for individuals who enjoy hands-on work.
Become part of a world-class precision manufacturing team.
Opportunities for cross-training and advancement into tooling, assembly, or machine building.
This role is being filled confidentially by Connect Force Recruiting.
