About Us

Our History

Robertson Machine has been a fixture of Silicon Valley since opening our doors in 1979. Much of our work stems from repeat business and customer referrals. We pride ourselves in our quality work and deep customer relationships.

We’ve been family owned and operated since 1999, led by our president Rene Leni, a proud Santa Clara resident with over 40 years experience as a programmer and machinist in the precision tooling business.

Rene hails from the country of Chile! Prior to his move to the U.S., Rene's former country went through crushing changes and the government was taken over by a dictator. From that point forward, Rene set out to find peace and create opportunity for his family. He enrolled and completed training at the Center for Employment Training (CET) in 1978, and started Robertson Machine shortly after.
