Schedule:

Monday – Friday, 7:00 AM – 4:00 PM

Are you an experienced Tool Crib Attendant, an Industrial Distributor Specialist (Fastenal, MSC, Grainger), or a Machinist looking to step away from physical machine operation into a technical, client-facing career?

If so, this is the perfect opportunity to leverage your cutting tool knowledge in a new direction. In this role, you will travel regionally (approx. 40% via car/airplane) to install, optimize, and maintain automated tool vending and inventory systems directly at our customer manufacturing facilities.

• $28.00 - $34.00/hour (with annual performance & salary reviews)
• Day 1 Benefits:
  Excellent Medical, Dental, and Vision Insurance
• 401(k) with Company Match
• Generous Paid Time Off (Holidays, Personal, & Vacation)

• Client-Site Audits:
  Assess, identify, and collect tooling inventory data at customer locations.
• System Installation:
  Lead or support the physical installation of automated tool-vending hardware, organize/label customer tooling, and establish inventory tracking databases using Excel.
• Customer Training:
  Provide professional, friendly on-site software training to client teams post-installation.
• Tech Support:
  Perform ongoing remote and on-site software maintenance and hardware support for vending machinery.
• Warehouse Backup:
  Provide localized support to our internal Tool Crib, delivery routes, and warehouse when not traveling.

• 3+ years of Tool Crib management, industrial inventory (VMI), or related machining/manufacturing environment experience.
• Strong Cutting Tool Literacy:
  Must easily identify common cutting tool types (inserts, end mills, drills, taps) and communicate using standard terminology.
• Tech & Excel Savvy:
  Proficient computer skills, including the ability to utilize Excel for organizing inventory data and maintaining basic software systems.
• Field-Ready & Client-Facing:
  Professional customer service skills with a friendly, outgoing personality.
• VMI Familiarity (A Plus!):
  Prior exposure to industrial vending or tool management software (Fast Track, Cribware, Tool Boss, Matrix, Crib Master, Auto Crib, etc.) is highly helpful but not required.

• Ability to travel up to 40% of the time via car or airplane.
• Valid Driver’s License with a clean, acceptable driving record.
