Job Description
Precision Tool & Die Technician

Schedule: Monday-Thursday, 6:30 AM - 4:30 PM

Step into a role where craftsmanship keeps production humming. As a Precision Tool & Die Technician, you’ll support high-volume manufacturing by building, repairing, and improving the tooling and fixtures that make reliable output possible. You’ll join a team that prizes safety, exacting standards, and continuous improvement—while enjoying a steady four-day workweek.

A day in the life

You arrive to a clean, well-organized shop, review the production priorities, and jump into hands-on machining. One hour you’re rebuilding a worn fixture; the next, you’re diagnosing a die issue that’s creating downtime. You’ll coordinate with production to minimize interruptions, document your work, and look for ways to make each tool run better than before.

What you’ll do
  • Build, refurbish, and maintain production tooling, dies, and fixtures.
  • Operate manual mills, lathes, grinders, and drill presses to fabricate and repair precision parts.
  • Diagnose mechanical problems that lead to failures or unplanned downtime and implement effective fixes.
  • Adapt and refine tooling to boost efficiency, reliability, and repeatability.
  • Read and interpret blueprints, schematics, and technical drawings to tight tolerances.
  • Perform preventive maintenance and routine equipment inspections.
  • Accurately document repairs, maintenance tasks, and any tooling changes.
  • Keep the workspace safe and orderly while following all safety protocols.
What you bring
  • 3+ years as a machinist in manufacturing, tool & die, or maintenance.
  • Hands-on proficiency with manual mills, lathes, grinders, and drill presses.
  • Ability to interpret prints and hold machining tolerances.
  • Experience troubleshooting and repairing mechanical equipment.
  • High school diploma or GED.
Preferred extras
  • Technical school training or completion of a machining apprenticeship.
  • Background in tooling design modifications and process improvement.
  • Knowledge of heat treatment methods and material properties.
Benefits
  • Four-day workweek with overtime opportunities.
  • Stable first-shift schedule.
  • Collaborative, team-driven manufacturing environment.
  • Long-term career growth potential.
