Job Description
Our Mission
Our mission is "We bring ideas to life through innovative manufacturing solutions." Our purpose is "CTG exists to manufacture a better life."
Build the ToolingAs a Vac, Trim, & Fixture Builder, you’ll turn CAD intent into rock-solid vacuum and trim tooling that keeps manufacturing moving fast and accurate. You’ll review designs at kick-off, then assemble and fit fixtures, gauges, and automation tooling to print—installing pins, clamps, slides, pneumatics, and vacuum components with precision. Expect hands-on drilling, tapping, reaming, grinding, and hand-finishing, plus prove-out/validation, tryouts, and buy-offs. You’ll document changes, flag issues early, and support repairs and engineering updates.
Required:- HS diploma/GED; technical certificate/apprenticeship preferred
- 3+ years in fixture/machine building, tool & die, or automation assembly (automotive preferred)
- Blueprint/CAD interpretation; precision measurement; pneumatic/vacuum troubleshooting
- Able to run hi-lo and overhead crane; strong teamwork and communication If you’re ready to build tooling that performs under pressure, apply today. Your Daily Momentum
Your morning starts early on the shop floor—checking the day’s priorities, verifying you’ve got the right components, and setting up your work area for a clean build. You’ll move between bench work and surface plates, making careful checks with indicators and height gauges, then pivot quickly when a fit-up needs a smart adjustment. Midday often brings a fast-paced prove-out where you watch a tool perform, capture tweaks, and coordinate next steps with engineering and the foreman. As the day closes, you’ll lock in documentation, prep for the next build stage, and keep momentum ready for overtime pushes when schedules demand it.
