Build, restore, and elevate the tools that build our products

Your craft keeps production moving. As a Precision Injection Molding Toolroom Technician, you’ll blend diagnostic savvy with meticulous toolroom skills to ensure our molds run safely, efficiently, and consistently deliver quality parts. You’ll spend most of your time on the floor—shoulder-to-shoulder with Process Technicians and Operators—owning problems and delivering solutions.

We will consider candidates at the Technician I, II, or Senior level. Pay is flexible within the posted range, based on depth of experience in injection molding tooling, mold repair, and process support.

Impact you’ll make

• Restore part quality fast by troubleshooting flash, shorts, sticking, and cosmetic issues directly in the press.
• Execute planned and corrective work: tear-downs, repairs, and preventive maintenance.
• Service critical components—clean, polish, lubricate, and replace pins, bushings, lifters, slides, and ejectors.
• Diagnose and repair hot runners (heaters, thermocouples, wiring, and leaks) across platforms like DME, Husky, Mold-Masters, Synventive, and others.
• Verify and optimize cooling circuits, vents, and parting lines to enhance cycle time and part quality.
• Respond to breakdowns with safe, effective emergency repairs.
• Support trials, startups, and process changes; communicate findings and recommendations.
• Spot patterns in recurring issues and drive practical improvements.
• Capture all PM and repair activities with clear, accurate documentation.
• Apply welding, machining, grinding, polishing, and precise handwork when needed.
• Reverse engineer damaged or worn components using CAD and/or manual measurement.
