Build Solutions That Keep Production Moving

PDS Tech Commercial is hiring a Tooling Design Engineer to support a global leader in the energy sector. This is an opportunity for an engineer who enjoys turning concepts into real-world manufacturing solutions and wants to see the direct impact of their work on the production floor.

In this role, you'll design and optimize tooling, fixtures, jigs, and production equipment that improve quality, increase efficiency, reduce downtime, and support the successful delivery of complex products. You'll work alongside manufacturing, quality, sourcing, and engineering teams to solve challenges, drive continuous improvement, and influence how products are built.

If you're someone who enjoys both technical design work and hands-on problem solving, this role offers the chance to make a visible impact every day.

What You'll Be Doing

• Design, develop, and improve tooling, fixtures, jigs, and manufacturing support equipment

• Create and maintain 3D models, engineering drawings, specifications, and technical documentation

• Partner with manufacturing, quality, sourcing, and design engineering teams to deliver practical and cost-effective solutions

• Evaluate tooling concepts for feasibility, manufacturability, performance, and cost

• Support tooling installation, validation, setup, and implementation within production environments

• Troubleshoot tooling performance issues and implement corrective actions to improve reliability and efficiency

• Apply GD&T principles to tooling and fixture designs

• Drive continuous improvement initiatives focused on productivity, safety, quality, and cost reduction

• Support both new product introductions and existing manufacturing operations

• Evaluate materials, fabrication methods, and supplier capabilities for tooling applications

• Develop tooling standards and best practices that improve consistency across operations

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Industrial Engineering, or a related technical discipline (or equivalent experience)

• Experience in tooling engineering, manufacturing engineering, mechanical design, or related engineering roles

• Strong experience with 3D CAD modeling

• Ability to read, create, and interpret engineering drawings and technical documentation

• Working knowledge of GD&T

• Strong troubleshooting, analytical, and problem-solving abilities

• Ability to manage multiple engineering projects and priorities simultaneously

• Strong communication and cross-functional collaboration skills

• Demonstrated mechanical aptitude and practical engineering judgment

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience designing tooling, fixtures, and jigs in a manufacturing environment

• Experience with Siemens NX 2206/2412

• Familiarity with machining, fabrication, assembly, and manufacturing processes

• Experience supporting production teams on the manufacturing floor

• Knowledge of Lean Manufacturing and continuous improvement methodologies

• Experience working with tooling vendors and external suppliers

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Join a highly respected global organization supporting critical energy technologies

• Work on projects that directly influence manufacturing performance, product quality, and operational success

• Collaborate with experienced engineers and manufacturing professionals in a technical, innovation-driven environment

• Gain exposure to advanced manufacturing processes and large-scale production operations

• Take ownership of projects from concept through implementation

• Competitive compensation and comprehensive benefits

• Long-term career growth potential within a stable and growing industry
