Careers at OCRV Center in Yorba Linda
OCRV Center hires collision, fiberglass, paint, mechanical and fabrication technicians at our Yorba Linda facility. The work is specialty RV and commercial vehicle repair rather than volume automotive, which suits people who want depth on complex jobs rather than throughput.
This is not a production shop turning over bumper covers. A single job here can run 200 labor hours and involve structure, fabrication, laminate work, refinish and reassembly. That is either exactly the work you want or exactly the work you do not.
If it is the former, the roles below are the ones that come up.
What roles do you hire for?
Collision and structural technicians, fiberglass and laminate technicians, painters and prep, mechanical and electrical technicians, fabricators and welders, and estimators who can write a defensible supplement.
We also take apprentices in fiberglass and prep, which is the most realistic entry point into this trade because the skills are not taught anywhere else in the region.
- Collision and structural technician
- Fiberglass and laminate technician
- Painter and paint prep
- Mechanical and electrical technician, RV systems
- Fabricator and welder, aluminum and steel
- Estimator with insurance supplement experience
- Apprentice, fiberglass and prep
What do you actually look for?
The ability to diagnose before disassembling. Most of the recurring problems we fix on vehicles from other shops came from replacing a component without establishing why the original failed, and that habit is harder to unlearn than any technique is to teach.
Beyond that: documentation discipline, because our estimates and supplements depend on it, and comfort working on vehicles worth six figures where a mistake is expensive.
- Diagnosis before disassembly, consistently
- Documentation discipline, photographs and measurements as habit
- Comfort on high value vehicles
- Willingness to work to published dimensional specification rather than by eye
- RV, marine, aircraft or heavy truck background all transfer well
How do I apply?
Email info@ocrvcenter.com with what you do, where you have done it and what kind of work you want more of. A short honest message beats a long generic resume, and we read all of them.
If there is no current opening in your discipline we will say so rather than leaving you waiting.

Do you take apprentices?
Yes, in fiberglass and prep, which is the most realistic entry point into this trade because these skills are not taught anywhere else in the region.
