About The Position

We are seeking skilled Mold Builders, Mold Makers, Tool & Die Makers, and Precision Machinists to join a growing Tool Room team supporting the production of highly engineered micro-sized components used in life-saving medical devices, aerospace applications, and advanced technologies. This is not a production machining role. You will build brand-new precision steel molds from start to finish while working with some of the most advanced tooling and machining equipment in the industry. Projects involve extremely tight tolerances — often measured in microns — requiring exceptional craftsmanship, attention to detail and problem-solving.

Requirements

2–5 years of mold making, tool & die, or precision machining experience OR completion of a Tool & Die program.
Experience building molds and tooling components.
CNC mill and EDM experience.
Ability to read engineering drawings and CAD files.
Experience working to tight tolerances.
Strong mechanical aptitude and problem-solving skills.
Stable work history and long-term mindset.
