What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Tooling Engineer, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Tooling Engineer, you need a solid background in mechanical engineering, CAD design, and manufacturing processes, often supported by a bachelor's degree in engineering or a related field. Familiarity with software like SolidWorks, AutoCAD, and relevant manufacturing systems, as well as certifications in areas like GD&T or Six Sigma, is typically required. Strong problem-solving abilities, attention to detail, and effective communication skills help you excel in cross-functional teams and resolve production challenges. These skills are crucial for designing efficient, cost-effective tooling solutions that ensure product quality and seamless manufacturing operations.

What are some common challenges faced by Tooling Engineers when introducing new tooling into manufacturing processes?

Tooling Engineers often encounter challenges such as ensuring that new tooling designs meet both production efficiency and product quality standards, coordinating with cross-functional teams to integrate tooling with existing equipment, and managing tight project timelines. Additionally, troubleshooting unexpected issues during initial production runs and balancing cost constraints with technical requirements are frequent hurdles. Successful Tooling Engineers proactively communicate with production, quality, and maintenance teams to address these challenges and ensure a smooth transition from design to full-scale production.

What is tooling engineering?

Tooling engineering is a specialized field focused on designing, developing, and maintaining tools, dies, molds, and fixtures used in manufacturing processes. Tooling engineers ensure that production tools are efficient, precise, and durable to support high-quality and cost-effective manufacturing. They work closely with design, production, and quality teams to optimize tool performance and troubleshoot any issues that arise during the production process.

What is the difference between Tooling Engineering vs Manufacturing Engineering?

AspectTooling EngineeringManufacturing Engineering
Primary FocusDesign, development, and maintenance of tooling and fixtures used in manufacturing processesPlanning, designing, and optimizing overall manufacturing processes and production workflows
Skills & CertificationsCAD/CAM, tooling design, machining, certifications like CATIA or SolidWorksProcess improvement, Lean, Six Sigma, manufacturing systems
Work EnvironmentMachine shops, manufacturing plants, tooling design labsProduction floors, plant operations, process development centers
Industry UsageAutomotive, aerospace, consumer electronicsAutomotive, industrial equipment, consumer goods

Tooling Engineering primarily focuses on creating and maintaining the tools and fixtures needed for manufacturing, while Manufacturing Engineering oversees the entire production process. Both roles are essential in manufacturing industries and often collaborate to ensure efficient production and high-quality output.

Across North America, ASR Group companies operate five sugar refineries, located in California, Maryland, Louisiana, Canada and Mexico. In Europe, ASR Group companies operate sugar refineries in the United Kingdom, Portugal, and, with a joint venture partner, Italy. The companies also farm sugarcane and own sugar mills in Mexico and Belize. The ASR Group portfolio includes the leading brands Domino, C&H, Florida Crystals, Redpath, Tate & Lyle, Lyle's, Sidul and Whitworths.  ASR Group companies also produce and market Tellus, a single-use, compostable tableware and foodservice product made from plant fibers, including sugarcane.

OVERVIEW

ASR Group -Tellus is seeking a Tooling Engineering Intern to support the design, prototyping, and testing of molded fiber products. This internship provides hands-on exposure to engineering, manufacturing, and product development in a fast-paced R&D environment.

Under the guidance of the Technical Director and Tooling Engineer, the intern will assist with day-to-day lab and tool shop activities, including CAD support, basic fabrication and inspection tasks, and product testing/documentation.

RESPONSIBILITIES & DUTIES

  • Support Engineering and R&D teams with tooling and molded-fiber product development activities
  • Create, revise, and interpret CAD models/drawings (2D and 3D) with guidance from team members
  • Prepare materials and components for fabrication and prototyping; support shop equipment operation (CNC, 3D printing, and hand tools) under supervision and in accordance with safety requirements
  • Maintain tool shop organization, including materials, tooling components, and consumables
  • Measure and inspect tooling parts for wear, fit, and basic quality requirements; document findings as needed
  • Participate in product testing (fit, strength, performance); record observations and assist with documenting methods and results
  • Support manufacturing trials and production runs by observing processes, identifying visible issues (e.g., defects, misalignment, tooling wear), collecting data, and assisting with basic troubleshooting
  • Collaborate with engineers to incorporate testing and trial feedback into design iterations and continuous improvements
  • Support project, trial, and tooling-change documentation by organizing files/drawings and maintaining accurate revision records (as directed)

QUALIFICATIONS & SKILLS

  • Currently pursuing or recently completed a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related field
  • 0-2 years of relevant experience (coursework, academic projects, co-ops, or internships considered)
  • Working knowledge of CAD software (SolidWorks, Fusion 360, or similar)
  • Demonstrated interest in manufacturing, product development, and hands-on engineering work
  • Ability to read basic engineering drawings and interpret dimensions/tolerances (or willingness to learn)
  • Comfortable working in both office and shop environments while adhering to safety procedures
  • Ability to learn quickly, follow direction, and seek clarification when needed
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to follow written and verbal instructions
  • Effective communication skills and ability to work collaboratively in a team environment
  • Ability to lift up to 25-50 pounds occasionally and perform work in a shop or plant environment

WHAT THE INTERN WILL GAIN

  • Exposure to real-world product development and manufacturing processes
  • Hands-on experience with tooling, prototyping methods, and production equipment
  • Opportunity to collaborate across Engineering, Operations, and R&D teams
  • Practical understanding of how product design translates into manufacturable solutions
