  • Diagnose complex tooling and process issues, implement root-cause corrective actions, and establish preventive maintenance and reliability programs to minimize downtime
  • Interpret and apply engineering drawings, CAD models, GD&T, and technical specifications to define tooling requirements, manufacturing methods, and process parameters
  • Prioritize and coordinate toolroom activities; mentor and support toolmakers, apprentices, and technicians while ensuring adherence to engineering standards
  • Partner with Engineering, Quality, Production, and Launch teams on new product introductions, process capability improvements, tooling standardization, and quality system compliance
  • Perform and oversee precision machining (manual and CNC), EDM, and related processes while enforcing rigorous safety and 5S/toolroom best practices
  • Drive continuous improvement projects focused on tooling performance, cost reduction, lead-time reduction, and lean manufacturing principles
  • Maintain accurate tooling documentation, BOMs, and change control records

Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Tool Design, or equivalent technical degree; or Journeyman Tool & Die Maker certification combined with significant engineering experience
  • 4+ years of progressive experience in tool & die, tooling design/engineering, or precision manufacturing environments, including demonstrated technical leadership
  • Expert-level ability to read and interpret complex blueprints, apply GD&T, work with 3D CAD models, and utilize precision metrology equipment
  • Hands-on experience with metal stamping, precision machining, mold-making, or related processes, plus strong analytical troubleshooting and cross-functional communication skills

Preferred Qualifications

  • Proficiency with CAD/CAM software (e.g., SolidWorks, NX, Mastercam, or equivalent)
  • Experience with CNC programming, EDM processes, and modern tooling technologies
  • Demonstrated success supporting lean manufacturing, Six Sigma, or formal continuous improvement initiatives
  • Familiarity with tooling simulation, finite element analysis (FEA), or process capability tools (SPC, Cpk, etc.)

Physical Requirements

  • Ability to stand for extended periods and work in a toolroom/manufacturing environment
  • Ability to lift up to 50 lbs occasionally
  • Comfortable operating precision equipment and tools
