Job Description

Consolidated Precision Products (CPP) is a prominent manufacturer specializing in highly engineered components and sub-assemblies that serve the commercial aerospace, military, and industrial markets. Located in Rancho Cucamonga, California, CPP boasts over 30 years of industry experience, providing customers with a comprehensive "total solution" from concept to finished product. The company’s diverse product offerings cover small-to-large function critical products, establishing CPP as a key player in precision manufacturing and aerospace foundry services. CPP values innovation, quality, and customer satisfaction, which are critical to maintaining its leadership position in the market. The corporate culture at CPP reflects a strong commitment to ethical employment practices, equal opportunity, and compliance with regulatory standards such as ITAR (International Traffic in Arms Regulations) to ensure security and compliance in their operations.

The Controls Technician role at CPP is an exciting opportunity for individuals looking to join a growing company within a high-demand sector, particularly on the aerospace foundry side of manufacturing. This full-time, non-management position is based on the second shift, running from 1:30pm to 10:00pm, providing a structured yet dynamic work schedule. Reporting directly to the Maintenance Supervisor, the Controls Technician will play an integral role in maintaining and enhancing CPP’s automated control systems and equipment to ensure steady production and minimal downtime.

In this role, the Controls Technician will be responsible for installing, calibrating, troubleshooting, maintaining, and repairing complex automated control systems, including PLCs, SCADA systems, and variable frequency drives (VFDs). The position offers a competitive hourly wage ranging from $32 to $36, dependent on experience, along with ample opportunities for overtime. CPP’s comprehensive benefits package includes a quarterly bonus program, medical, dental, vision, and life insurance coverage, along with a 401k plan with employer match, paid vacation, sick time, and holidays. This role requires hands-on technical skills, problem-solving aptitude, and a strong focus on safety and regulatory compliance.

Successful candidates will have a minimum of three years of hands-on electromechanical experience, with a solid understanding of electrical, electronic, mechanical systems, and programming knowledge in industrial control systems. Experience working in foundry or manufacturing environments, specifically with electronic systems, hydraulic systems, pneumatic systems, and the use of electrical testing equipment, is highly desired. The ability to read and interpret blueprints, electrical and electronic schematics, and to troubleshoot equipment ranging from 24 DC volts up to 480 AC volts is essential. Additionally, the role requires effective communication skills and the ability to interact with diverse teams, supporting continuous improvement and operational excellence.

Candidates must be legally authorized to work in the U.S. on a permanent basis without sponsorship, and must comply with ITAR regulations, meaning they must be U.S. persons as defined by the regulation. CPP maintains a strong commitment to equal employment opportunities across all demographic categories and abides by legal frameworks such as the Los Angeles County Fair Chance Ordinance and the California Fair Chance Act concerning applicants with arrest or conviction records. Joining CPP as a Controls Technician provides a rewarding career path in a technical, challenging, and supportive work environment dedicated to innovation and quality in aerospace manufacturing.
