Original job description

Job Title: Engineering Technician (Toolmaker / Manual Machinist)Job DescriptionThis role offers an experienced, hands-on toolmaker and manual machinist the opportunity to build, modify, repair, and finish precision tooling, dies, machine components, and fabricated assemblies. You will focus on conventional machining, precision grinding, metal forming, repair work, fabrication, and assembly, while working with a high degree of independence. You will evaluate requirements, determine the best machining or repair approach, create or modify cutters and fixtures, and maintain tight tolerances from initial setup through final inspection.Responsibilities

Set up and operate manual lathes, vertical and horizontal mills, drill presses, saws, and other conventional machine tools to produce precision components.
Operate surface and cylindrical grinders to create flat, parallel, square, round, and finished surfaces while consistently holding specified dimensions and tolerances.
Build, modify, maintain, and repair tooling, dies, fixtures, jigs, replacement parts, and production equipment components to support ongoing operations.
Perform tool-and-die work for metal forming operations, including fitting, adjustment, troubleshooting, and repair of dies and related tooling.
Plan work from engineering drawings, sketches, physical samples, and repair requirements, determining machining sequences, setups, stock allowances, tooling, and inspection methods.
Select, grind, sharpen, dress, modify, or manufacture cutters and cutting tools required to complete specialized machining and grinding tasks.
Develop practical solutions for one-off, damaged, worn, irregular, or difficult-to-hold components by designing and producing custom fixtures, adapters, spacers, and workholding aids.
Fabricate, fit, and assemble machined and formed-metal components, supporting equipment builds, rebuilds, modifications, and repairs from start to finish.
Use precision measuring equipment such as micrometers, calipers, dial indicators, height gauges, bore gauges, gauge blocks, surface plates, V-blocks, and angle plates to verify dimensions throughout the machining process.
Inspect completed work for dimensional accuracy, fit, geometry, and surface finish, and identify and correct causes of variation before parts move to subsequent operations.
Troubleshoot machining, grinding, tooling, die, fit-up, and assembly issues with minimal supervision, ensuring consistent quality and reliability.
Perform routine operator-level maintenance, including cleaning, lubrication, grinding-wheel dressing, and care of machines, tooling, fixtures, and measuring equipment.
Work safely around rotating machinery, grinding equipment, sharp tooling, metal chips, cutting fluids, and material-handling equipment, following established safety practices.

Essential Skills

Proven experience as a hands-on toolmaker and manual machinist focused on precision tooling, dies, and machine components.
Strong ability to set up and operate manual lathes, vertical and horizontal mills, drill presses, saws, and related conventional machine tools.
Proficiency in operating surface and cylindrical grinders to achieve flat, parallel, square, round, and finely finished surfaces within tight tolerances.
Demonstrated experience building, modifying, maintaining, and repairing tooling, dies, fixtures, jigs, replacement parts, and production equipment components.
Hands-on tool-and-die experience supporting metal forming operations, including fitting, adjustment, troubleshooting, and die repair.
Ability to interpret engineering drawings, sketches, physical samples, and repair requirements to plan work, machining sequences, setups, and inspection methods.
Skill in selecting, grinding, sharpening, dressing, modifying, or making cutters and cutting tools for specialized work.
Experience fabricating, fitting, and assembling machined and formed-metal components for equipment builds, rebuilds, modifications, and repairs.
Proficiency with precision measuring equipment, including micrometers, calipers, dial indicators, height gauges, bore gauges, gauge blocks, surface plates, V-blocks, and angle plates.
Strong troubleshooting skills for machining, grinding, tooling, die, fit-up, and assembly issues with minimal supervision.
Commitment to safe work practices when working around rotating machinery, grinding equipment, sharp tooling, metal chips, cutting fluids, and material-handling equipment.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

Experience with CNC and manual operations, including CNC lathe work.
Exposure to CNC programming for machining operations.
Experience in tool and die work supporting precision metal forming processes.
Experience with precision grinding and metal forming in a production or job-shop environment.
Hands-on experience with fabrication, mold making, sheet metal work, and mechanical assembly.
Ability to develop custom fixtures, adapters, spacers, and workholding aids for complex or irregular components.
Strong problem-solving mindset and the ability to work independently from minimal supervision.

Work EnvironmentYou will work in a smaller, close-knit company environment that values collaboration, craftsmanship, and practical problem-solving. The role centers on a traditional machine shop setting with manual lathes, mills, drill presses, saws, surface and cylindrical grinders, and a variety of precision measuring tools.
