Safety Oversight: Enforce strict adherence to lockout/tagout (LOTO) procedures, press guard safety, and ergonomic lifting standards. Conduct safety audits of all setup areas.
Process Optimization: Monitor press performance during production runs. Adjust parameters as needed to ensure optimal part quality, consistent cycle times, and minimal downtime.
Workflow Coordination: Collaborate with Production Supervisors to prioritize setup schedules and ensure all necessary tooling and materials are staged prior to changeovers.

Experience: 5+ years of direct experience in a stamping or manufacturing environment as a Die Setter or Press Technician, with at least 1–2 years in a leadership or supervisory capacity.
Technical Proficiency: Expert-level knowledge of die clamping systems, hydraulic/pneumatic systems, and heavy rigging practices.
Mechanical Aptitude: Ability to read and interpret complex blueprints, engineering drawings, and technical manuals.
Leadership Skills: Proven ability to coach team members, resolve conflicts, and maintain high standards of quality and efficiency.
Safety Certification: Strong working knowledge of OSHA press safety requirements; current certification or extensive training in LOTO and overhead crane operation is highly preferred.
Physical Requirements: Ability to work in a demanding manufacturing environment, including frequent standing, reaching, and occasional heavy lifting of tooling components.

Benefits: [Insert details on health, dental, 401(k), and PTO]
Growth: An opportunity to lead critical operations in a stable, high-production facility.
