Do you want to become a surrogate? We are now offering a sign on bonus to all qualified and matched surrogates that sign contracts. The first step is to fill out our surrogate application. A fertility specialist will contact you to continue the process. For intended parents interested in surrogacy to start or grow their families please contact us today. The surrogacy process is complex, but we will be with you every step of the way. Call today to get started.

Women who may have the ability to produce eggs but are unable to use their uterus or do not have a uterus, may consider a surrogate. A donated egg may also be used with the surrogate in the event a woman cannot produce her own eggs or her uterus is not intact or insufficient to carry a pregnancy. In either case, the husband's sperm, if viable, may be used.

Using an egg donor unrelated to the surrogate carrier eliminates any biological tie. The egg of the surrogate is never used as part of the assisted reproduction process, so that a surrogate is never in the position of delivering her own biological child.

The basic requirements of a woman to serve as a surrogate are:

• Emotionally stable
• Responsible
• In good physical health
• Non-smoker
• Has had at least one successful pregnancy
• Is capable of carrying a child to full term

A woman is not required to fall within a particular age range to serve as a surrogate, but most intended parents prefer a surrogate under the age of 40. For more information on surrogacy please see the documents on the left side of this page.

In Texas, there is a judicial process for validating the Gestational Contract (the contract between the intended parents and the surrogate). Included within the various requirements for having a Gestational Contract validated by a Texas court is that the intended parents must be married and the surrogate must have previously carried a child to term. Additionally, there are residency requirements that apply to either the surrogate or the intended parents, but not both.

Compensation for a surrogate services generally starts in the range of $35,000 - $40,000, for base compensation with over all fees up to 70k, in many cases. The amount of compensation is dependent upon a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, whether the surrogate carries twins, what procedures a surrogate is required to undergo and whether the delivery is vaginally or by cesarean section.

About the Role

We are seeking a Manufacturing Engineer to join our Manufacturing Operations team, based in Richmond, California.

The ideal candidate will bring experience in one or more core manufacturing processes such as metal stamping, machining, sheet metal fabrication, casting, extrusion, or cold heading, with strong preference for metal stamping in high-volume production environments. This role requires adaptability, strong documentation and communication skills, and the ability to operate effectively in smaller, fast-moving manufacturing environments with limited structure or support.

• Manufacturing Process & Production Support
• Apply hands-on manufacturing knowledge across processes such as stamping, machining, casting, extrusion, or cold heading
• Assist with process development, documentation, and continuous improvement initiatives
• Identify and troubleshoot production and quality issues at supplier and manufacturing sites
• Support creation of SOPs, work instructions, and manufacturing documentation
• Ensure adherence to quality standards and manufacturing best practices
• Cross-Functional & Quality Systems Engagement
• Work closely with Manufacturing Operations, Quality, and Engineering teams to ensure production readiness
• Support implementation and maintenance of quality systems and structured manufacturing processes
• Provide clear documentation, reporting, and communication from field activities
• Contribute to operational improvements across the manufacturing and supplier ecosystem

Qualifications

• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Manufacturing, or Industrial Engineering, or equivalent hands-on manufacturing experience
• Experience: 3–5 years of manufacturing engineering, production, or supplier industrialization experience
• Experience in at least one core manufacturing process (metal stamping strongly preferred; machining, sheet metal, casting, extrusion, or cold heading also valued)
• Experience working in smaller manufacturing environments (family-run, startup, or sub-50 employee facilities preferred)
• Experience supporting tooling, PPAP, supplier qualification, or production line validation
• Experience with quality systems required

Required Skills

• Hands-on understanding of manufacturing and production processes
• Ability to operate effectively in fast-moving, less structured manufacturing environments
• Strong documentation and communication skills (written and verbal)
• Experience creating SOPs, conducting inspections, and auditing manufacturing facilities
• Problem-solving mindset with strong technical curiosity
• Ability to work cross-functionally and independently in the field
• Comfortable spending significant time on manufacturing floors and supplier sites
• Travel readiness: Willingness to travel approximately 30–40%

Equal Opportunity Statement
