Are you a hands-on machinist looking to take ownership of your work and expand your skills in a stable, supportive environment? This shop located in** Covina *has been around since 1978 — founded to serve the remote control car and hobbyist industry - with arare opportunity to take projects from *cradle to grave** — from programming and setup to finished part — while working directly with a collaborative engineering team.

  • Collaborative culture – Work closely with engineering and offer input on how parts are made

  • Modern, efficient shop – 9 machines, including robotic automation that keeps production running after hours

  • Long-term stability – Join a tight-knit team with exceptionally low turnover

Perks & Benefits:

  • Consistent 1st shift: 5:00 AM – 1:30 PM, Monday–Friday

  • Excellent work-life balance

  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance

  • 401(k) with company match

  • Paid time off

  • Ongoing training and development opportunities

Responsibilities:
