BACHELOR'S DEGREE NOT REQUIRED
Are you a hands-on injection molding expert ready to thrive in a high-urgency, high-impact environment? Our client is seeking multiple Senior (or Mid Level) Process Engineers (1st Shift and Off-shifts) to join a dynamic team and help drive a major plant turnaround.
Why This Role Stands Out - Cutting-edge operation: 30+ large-tonnage presses (T+), complex tools up to 40,000 lbs.
- Advanced molding: Insert molding, mold-behind-fabric, valve gates, coining, and more.
- High-impact products: Full IP systems, door panels, airbags - Tier 1 to BMW.
- Growth opportunity: Be part of a plant transformation with room to lead and grow.
What You'll Do - Lead or support press-side troubleshooting, mold validation, and cycle optimization.
- Drive continuous improvement in scrap, cycle time, quality, and material usage.
- Collaborate with Tooling, Quality, and Maintenance teams to optimize performance.
- Support new tool launches, automation handoff, and process development.
- Interface with robotics (Sepro, Wittmann, Engel, ABB) and controls teams.
- Own and deploy scientific molding principles and eDart systems.
- Mentor technicians and contribute to training and upskilling efforts.
What You Bring (flexible on these areas) - Senior Role (1st Shift): Proven leadership in tool launches, troubleshooting, and process development.
- Off-Shift Roles: Strong hands-on experience with injection molding and readiness for 12-hour shifts.
- Deep understanding of complex tooling and molding technologies.
- Familiarity with robotics and EOAT coordination.
- Bonus: Experience with mold gas assist, coining, insert/overmolding, or tight-tolerance airbag chute molding.
Must-Haves - Plastic Injection molding expertise is non-negotiable and some automation experience (no programming expected)
- Strong job stability - no job-hoppers.
- Floor-based mindset - expect 70%+ hands-on work.
- Willingness to work weekends, variable hours, and be on-call as needed (will get better as the team builds).
- Degree preferred, but not required with proven experience and technical skill.
Shift Details - Senior Process Engineer: 1st Shift (Day)
- Process Engineers (2 openings): Off-Shift (12-hour shifts for now but will change as team builds, 7a-7p / 7p-7a)
- 7-day operation - Just-In-Time (JIT) supply environment
