About the Job
AP Precision Metals, Inc. was founded in 1998 by Lane Litke and Victor Miller out of a necessity for reliable metal products for their growing robotics company, Arc Products.

We've installed industry-leading machinery over the last 5 years and continue to invest in order to maintain our competitive edge. Today we are a core supplier for major private and publicly traded companies in San Diego. Nevertheless, we retain our founding principle: to be a stable, long-term, fabricator for small and medium-sized businesses in the region.
Many of our employees have been with us since the very beginning. A generous IRA, healthcare, and a focus on regular training have allowed us to take many employees from unskilled labor to high-paid technicians. We take pride in the customers we serve and just as much pride in the health and success of our team and their families.
