Murrietta Circuits

What Murrietta Circuits does

Murrietta Circuits is a privately held, family-owned US electronic manufacturing services (EMS) provider founded in 1980 by Albert G. Murrietta, currently led by CEO Andrew Murrietta and COO Albert Murrietta Jr. The company operates a vertically integrated, 50,000 square foot custom-built facility in Anaheim, California, employing over 100 US citizens. It manufactures custom printed circuit boards (PCBs) including rigid, flex, rigid-flex, multilayer (2-30 layers), and high-density interconnect (HDI) designs, and provides full turnkey or consigned PCB assembly (SMT, through-hole, mixed-technology), component procurement and kitting, interposers and adapters for legacy/obsolete component bridging, and design-for-manufacturability engineering. Technical capabilities include microvia drilling down to a few microns (Excellon Cobra Hybrid Laser), automated optical inspection, 3-D X-ray BGA inspection, environmental thermal cycling from -75°C to +177°C, and high-speed surface-mount placement (24,000 CPH Mycronic lines).

The company targets mission-critical applications where electronic failure is not an option, including military and defense (MIL-PRF-31032, AS9100, NADCAP, ITAR certified), aerospace, space exploration (IPC-6012 Space Addendum, IPC-6018), medical devices (ISO-13485 certified, including SynCardia artificial heart PCBs), and energy programs. Its go-to-market is enterprise field sales initiated via a quote-based RFQ process requiring BOM, quantities, timelines, and competitive information; pricing is fully custom with no public rate cards. The business model is project-based one-time manufacturing revenue plus professional services for component kitting and obsolete component adaptation, with all production conducted domestically under one roof. Certifications and awards (Department of Energy 8(a) Small Disadvantaged Business of the Year 2024, NADCAP, MIL-PRF-31032, consecutive Environmental Stewardship recognition) position the company as a certified domestic supplier into regulated US end-markets.
