From cars and aerospace systems to medical devices and packaging, most physical goods begin life in a mold or are shaped by a manufacturing tool. Producing these tools has always been slow, manual, and dependent on scarce expertise, taking weeks or months. We’re changing that.\nAt our Detroit headquarters, we combine the industrial DNA of America’s manufacturing heartland with the speed, intelligence, and precision of Silicon Valley. Our AI-driven platform tackles the hardest problems in geometry, process planning, and fabrication, collapsing production timelines from months to days and soon, minutes. We don’t just build software; we run a fully operational factory where our technology produces production-grade tooling every week, enabling tight feedback loops and rapid iteration.\nBacked by top-tier investors, we’re restoring speed, flexibility, and capability to the American industrial base. Our mission is to make manufacturing as agile and scalable as the digital world, and in doing so, rebuild the infrastructure of the physical economy.\nPosition Overview\nWe are looking for a skilled and hands-on Injection Molding Process Technician to support setup, optimization, and troubleshooting across our press lineup. You’ll be responsible for ensuring machines run efficiently and consistently-meeting quality targets, minimizing scrap, and reducing downtime.\nThis role is critical to our ability to run complex molds at high volumes with the tightest tolerances.\nKey Responsibilities\nSet up molds, material, and auxiliary equipment per production schedule\n\nStart, stop, and dial-in injection molding processes to meet part specs and cycle time targets\n\nMonitor machine performance and make real-time adjustments to pressures, speeds, and temperatures\n\nConduct first-piece inspections and approve production startups\n\nIdentify and troubleshoot part defects, flash, short shots, and dimensional issues\n\nMaintain accurate process documentation, startup sheets, and change logs\n\nWork closely with Quality and Tooling teams to ensure tool readiness and optimize cycle times\n\nPerform minor machine maintenance and support daily PM tasks\n\nTrain and mentor machine operators as needed\n\nMachines & Equipment You'll Work With\nPress sizes: 190T to 2000T\n\nRobotics and automation systems\n\nMaterial dryers, loaders, and temperature controllers\n\nVision systems and in-cavity sensors (where applicable)\n\nQualifications\n5+ years of hands-on process tech experience in injection molding\n\nFamiliar with scientific molding principles and decoupled molding strategies\n\nAbility to read and interpret part prints and work instructions\n\nStrong mechanical aptitude and troubleshooting instincts\n\nComfortable with high-volume, fast-paced production environments\n\nBonus: Familiarity with ISO 9001 or IATF environments; RJG or Paulson training; experience with startup facilities\n\nWhat You’ll Get\nCompetitive pay, benefits, and equity opportunity\n\nInvolvement in advanced production cell design and software integration\n\nCareer path toward Lead Tech, Process Engineer, or Automation Specialist\n\nA front-row seat in shaping a smarter, vertically integrated manufacturing company.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3249,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Plastics & Polymers","Industrial Machinery","Manufacturing"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-25T20:37:14Z"}],"liveness":{"score":5,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.194,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":230,"expected_fill_days":42,"reasons":["conf:14","stale_co","ghost","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-10-01T05:45:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/atomic-industries-process-technician-injection-molding","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/atomic-industries-process-technician-injection-molding.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-01T18:30:04Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","usage":{"tier":"crawler","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":839,"day_limit":5000,"remaining_today":4161,"minute_limit":60,"resets_at":"2026-10-02T00:00:00Z"}}}
