Our Story
Founded in 2025 by Jesse Katzenberger, Katzenberger Engineering grew out of a passion for turning complex concepts into elegant hardware solutions. After a decade of hands‑on work with aerospace, medical‑device, tactical and consumer‑electronics firms, we built a boutique consultancy that blends deep technical expertise with a client‑first mindset.
Based in Orange County, we partner with startups, OEMs, and established manufacturers to guide products from early sketches all the way to high‑volume production. Our local presence means face‑to‑face collaboration, rapid iteration, and on‑site support whenever you need it.

Zero‑Tolerance Quality: Rigorous design‑for‑manufacturability (DFM) and design‑for‑test (DFT) reviews, component traceability, and thorough documentation.
Local, Responsive Partnership: In‑person meetings, rapid prototyping, and on‑site assistance whenever deadlines tighten.
