RC Mowers, Green Bay, Wisconsin, hired several new employees as the company continues to add new dealers throughout the country.
Along with several new production, operations, purchasing and marketing team members, RC Mowers hired Matthew Bries as its senior robotics engineer and Bryan Johnson as its regional sales manager based in the Pacific Northwest.
“These new hires are a testament to the abilities of our product and the anticipation of our future product lines,” says Tim Kubista, vice president of sales and marketing for RC Mowers. “We are seeing sustained interest from both commercial landscapers and from public works departments. Their positive reaction to our mowers, along with the continued expansion of our dealer network, has made these new hires a necessity to meet demand.”
Bries, who has a B.S. in electrical engineering, worked for several years as a research engineer at Southwest Research Institute in San Antonio, and has extensive experience in robotics technology. He will continue his work in autonomous vehicle development at RC Mowers.
Johnson comes from an extensive career in the automotive industry. He has experience in sales, operations, project management, customer service and team building, including a 15-year career at Discount Tire.
RC Mowers also began construction of a new $4.8-million office and production facility in Green Bay, with plans to begin operations there in February 2023.
“Our founders saw a need to solve the very real and ongoing problems of labor shortages and safety concerns in the landscaping industry,” says Kubista. “Because we are efficiently addressing our customers’ need to offset these industry shortfalls, we are continuing to grow at a rapid pace. We wish Matthew, Bryan and our other new employees continued success as we work together to redefine the business of mowing.”
