Why Work at ORACLE Lighting?

1. Industry Leadership & Innovation: ORACLE Lighting is not just another aftermarket lighting brand — we’re recognized industry leaders. With multiple SEMA awards, over 25 years of experience, and a strong portfolio of patented products, candidates can take pride in joining a company known for pushing the boundaries of automotive lighting design and technology.


2. Be Part of Product Innovation: This is more than a technician role. You’ll get to work directly with our in-house design and engineering teams and be one of the first to install, test, and improve new products before they hit the market. Your feedback helps shape the future of what we build.


3. Variety of Builds & Platforms: We work on everything from off road rigs to custom show cars and high-end builds. No two days are the same — ideal for a technician who enjoys variety and problem-solving.


4. Growth-Oriented Environment: Whether you’re looking to sharpen your electrical skills or move into R&D or product development, we offer room to grow. We invest in our team with training programs and resources to grow in this position.


5. Events & Industry Exposure: We participate in major national automotive events including SEMA, Overland Expo, and Jeep Beach. Our tech team often supports booth vehicles and high-profile SEMA builds, giving you exposure to top builders and new trends in the aftermarket.


6. Purpose-Driven Culture: As a family-owned company, ORACLE Lighting is built on a foundation of integrity, teamwork, and customer satisfaction. We’re big enough to make a national impact, but small enough for every team member’s voice to matter.

What Makes This Role Unique:

• Work directly on cutting-edge automotive lighting prototypes before they launch to market.


• Your input and experience help drive real product innovation used by off-roaders, performance enthusiasts, and show car builders worldwide.


• Join a company that’s recognized nationally for product design, innovation, and international IP enforcement.


• Be a key player in high-visibility projects, including vehicles featured at major industry events and in national publications.
