- Develop 3D models, assemblies, and detailed tooling drawings in Solid Works
- Work directly with the internal toolroom throughout mold design, machining, assembly, and validation
- Design around hot runner systems and high-volume molding requirements
- Apply DFM, tolerance analysis, and root cause problem solving to improve tooling performance
- Support tooling standardization and reuse to reduce lead times and capital investment
- 5+ years of injection mold design, mold making, or advanced tooling experience
- Strong understanding of injection mold construction, mold bases, cores, cavities, shutoffs, cooling, venting, and ejection
- Advanced Solid Works experience required
- Ability to design tooling with manufacturability, mold performance, and long-term serviceability in mind
- Strong understanding of injection molding processes and high-volume production
- Experience with hot runner systems preferred
- Experience with modular, standardized, or reusable tooling concepts is a plus, but not required
