ABOUT THE ROLE
BESTAFF is seeking an experienced Injection Mold Technician — not an operator — for a direct placement opportunity with a precision manufacturing company. This hands-on role goes beyond running machines. You'll own mold changeovers, machine setup, processing, and troubleshooting across a variety of resins including Pebax and Polycarbonate. If you know injection molding from the ground up and can work confidently with 3 and 6-axis robotics, this role was built for you.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Perform mold changeovers and color changeovers on schedule — this is a core function of the role.
- Set up, start, and operate 3-axis and 6-axis robots efficiently and safely.
- Process and troubleshoot injection molding machines, molds, and robots as issues arise.
- Ensure scheduled machines produce quality parts at standard BOM cycles with minimal scrap and waste.
- Promote safety awareness, housekeeping, and a well-organized work area at all times.
- Communicate proactively with maintenance, leads, and the department manager on breakdowns and repairs.
- Maintain reliable attendance — the weekend crew depends on you.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- Minimum 2 years of hands-on experience in injection mold setup, processing, and troubleshooting — operator-only experience does not meet this requirement.
- Demonstrated ability to perform mold changeovers independently.
- Working knowledge of Pebax, Polycarbonate, and other resins.
- Experience with or strong aptitude for 3 and 6-axis robotics.
- Mechanical troubleshooting skills — you can diagnose and communicate what a machine is doing and why.
- Ability to read, write, and communicate in English.
- High school diploma or equivalent required.
- Team-oriented and dependable — you show up and do the work.
BESTAFF is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
