Touting progress in emerging markets, the engineering firm DornerWorks
intends to add several positions in the upcoming quarter, following an
increase of nine jobs in the first three months of this year and 25
positions last year.
DornerWorks, located at 3445 Lake Eastbrook SE, provides consulting
in the field of electronics engineering to companies in a variety of
industries, including automotive, aerospace and medical. Tim Walker,
the company’s vice president of sales and marketing, says a concerted
effort to pursue business in the latter two industries has played a
crucial role in driving DornerWorks’s growth.
“In the last year, we moved into the medical market, so that turned
out to be a good driver for us,” Walker says. “We also had a lot of
growth from some of our aerospace customers.”
At present, DornerWorks employs 70 people, including electrical and
software engineers. The company is owned by President and CEO David
Dorner, who founded DornerWorks in 2000 after a seven-year career at GE
Aviation, which was then known as Smiths Aerospace. The company moved
to its present location in 2008.
