  • Interpret customer-provided part geometry, layouts, and design requirements to develop functional, manufacturable tooling.

  • Design new molds and modify existing tooling to meet part specifications, production needs, and quality requirements.

  • Review part geometry, mold construction, and component tolerances to ensure proper fit, function, and assembly.

  • Prepare detailed drawings and technical documentation for machining, mold construction, assembly, and tryout.

  • Troubleshoot mold and tooling issues, identify root causes, and develop repair or modification solutions.

  • Provide design clarification and technical support to CNC machining, EDM, mold build, fitting, and assembly teams.

  • Collaborate with engineers, machinists, mold makers, and project managers to communicate design requirements and resolve challenges.

  • Improve existing tooling to increase performance, reliability, quality, and ease of maintenance.

  • Strong understanding of mold function, component tolerances, and manufacturability.

  • Working knowledge of CNC machining, EDM processes, mold assembly, and tooling troubleshooting.

  • Ability to interpret part data, technical drawings, and design specifications.
