Job Description

Welcome to Our Place. We believe that sharing a home-cooked meal is the very best way to connect. That’s why we create products that simplify home-cooking; it’s why we celebrate traditions with families given, chosen, and found; and it’s why we share those stories with you, directly from the people and places where they originate.

As the Product Technician , you’ll support our Product Development, Compliance, and Engineering teams by testing, validating, and documenting product performance. You’ll work hands-on with prototypes and production samples to ensure they meet our high standards for quality and safety, and you’ll coordinate with vendors in China to manage samples and materials for testing. The ideal candidate is detail-oriented, follows structured testing protocols, and produces clear, thorough reports.

This is a part-time, in-person role (about 20 hours per week, Tuesday–Thursday) based in our LA product lab studio.

What you'd do at Our Place

• Perform lab testing and product evaluations for cookware, small home appliances and kitchenware products.
• Document and report results with a high degree of accuracy and clarity.
• Collaborate with product teams and vendors in China to manage sample logistics.
• Maintain lab equipment and ensure proper testing environments.
• Provide hands-on technical support during product development and validation.
• Lift and handle products and equipment up to 30 lbs.
