Job Description

Are you more than a button pusher in a factory? Ready to use your mechanical genius? Complete two surveys now.

About you

Are you tired of being stuck in a factory doing the same boring work every day? Do you feel like you’re capable of more, but you’re hesitant to make the change? As a fellow creator, we understand your problems and we want to help you. Our ideal toolmakers are motivated through being allowed to use their creativity and initiative. Be valued as a person. Be helpful. Want to make more money on top of the baseline? Then help us design systems that crank out more productivity… then you’re into bonus land. Let your initiative set the pace, instead of their machine.

We’ve been stuck in a similar situation before, but we made the move to a small business and loved it. We want to offer you the same opportunity to unleash your creativity and do what you love.

We will start with an Indeed and Criteria questionnaire, followed by a phone screen and an on-site try-out to ensure a great fit. Schedule a time to stop by our shop now, but if you need more time, shoot us an email.

As a toolmaker/creator in our team, you can expect engaging mental work that values your unique talents. You will become a leader among other talented toolmakers and experience a transformation from doing boring work that doesn’t require mental energy to stimulating work that flexes your creativity talent.

Don’t waste more years of your life doing something that doesn’t fulfill you. Join us and let’s create amazing things together.
