Toolmaker/Machinist

Lafayette Tool and Die is looking for an experienced Toolmaker/Machinist.

If you enjoy variety, problem-solving, and quality craftsmanship—and you're tired of being treated like a number instead of a name—this could be a great fit.

This is a true tool room environment, not a production line. Our work is varied, and no two days are necessarily the same.

What You’ll Do

• Run CNC and manual mills and lathes independently
• Build, repair, and modify tooling, fixtures, and one-off parts
• Read and interpret prints and machine to tight tolerances
• Think through setups, tooling, and machining methods
• Work independently while also contributing as part of a team
• Take pride in producing accurate, quality work

What You Can Expect

We offer a positive, respectful work environment where experienced people are trusted to do their jobs. You’ll have the independence to work on your own, with a team available when collaboration or another perspective is needed.

We value quality over quantity and craftsmanship over rushing.

If you have at least 7 years of experience, enjoy variety and hands-on machining, and take pride in doing things right, we’d like to hear from you.
