  • Tooling Maintenance: Cleaning and preparing moulds with release agents to ensure high-quality surface finishes.

  • Quality Control: Maintaining a clean-room environment and documenting work to ensure every part meets our rigorous standards.

  • May have recently left College or School
  • Has excellent hand-to-eye coordination 

  • Is methodical, patient, and takes pride in a “job well done.”

  • Can follow complex instructions and technical diagrams accurately.
