Our Team

- Diagnose and resolve molding defects (e.g., short shots, flash, sink marks, burn marks, warpage) through root-cause analysis and effective corrective actions that prevent recurrence.
- Drive continuous improvement initiatives that reduce cycle time, improve part quality, and increase tooling and process productivity.
- Ensure supplier processes and delivered parts adhere to applicable quality, regulatory, and compliance requirements.
- Collaborate cross-functionally (design engineering, quality, procurement, suppliers) to transfer designs into reliable production and to support cost and lead-time optimization.
- Mentor/coach supplier tooling teams and junior engineers on best practices in tool making, mold trial execution, and troubleshooting
Who You Are (Basic Qualifications)
- Diploma in Tool Die Making (NTTF preferred) OR a relevant engineering degree.
- 5 10 years of hands-on experience in tool and component development and supplier-based mold trials/validation.
- Strong practical knowledge of tool design, manufacturing, and tooling processes for plastic, rubber, and metal parts.
- Proven experience troubleshooting molding defects and implementing corrective/preventive actions.
- Strong verbal and written communication skills and willingness to travel to supplier locations as required.
What Will Put You Ahead
- NTTF certification in Tool Die Making.
- Experience with CAD/CAM tool design, injection molding simulation (Moldflow or equivalent), or die design software.
- Familiarity with quality standards and systems (e.g., ISO, PPAP, APQP) and experience executing process qualification protocols.
- Training or experience in Lean manufacturing, Six Sigma, or structured problem-solving methodologies.
- Prior experience managing complex supplier relationships and multi-site validation activities.
