At EPS Connects, we work as an extension of your engineering team—helping you find the right people without the hiring headaches.
In today’s fast-paced manufacturing environment, recruiting often gets sidelined. We get it—you’re juggling tight budgets and urgent deadlines.

Why I Started EPS Connects
When I was managing engineering teams, I was constantly juggling deadlines, production issues, and budget constraints. And in the middle of it all, I often needed to find the right person to join the team or step in with the technical skills to move a project forward.
Recruiting was frustrating. I’d ask for a process engineer and get resumes for IT professionals or structural engineers—just because “engineer” was on the page. It became clear that the people helping with the search didn’t understand the difference between roles, machines, or even manufacturing environments. And it showed in the results.
But I understood the gap—because I lived it.
I’ve spent my career delivering engineered manufacturing systems: injection mold tools, molding machines, and high-speed automation for companies like NP Medical, Nypro, TRW, Covidien, Lake Region Medical, AG Russell, and Albea. I’ve led multinational engineering teams and delivered results in demanding industries like Medical Device, Automotive, Consumer Products, and Packaging.
That experience taught me how to read a resume the way an engineering manager does—and to spot real talent.
At EPS Connects, we don’t rely on buzzwords or keyword matches. We put experienced eyes on every candidate and deliver a few highly qualified options that truly fit your technical and cultural needs—so you can spend less time sifting through resumes and more time driving results.
Meet the Founder
After years of leading engineering teams in high-pressure manufacturing environments, I saw a pattern: we were constantly trying to move projects forward with too few people and not enough time to find the right ones. Hiring wasn’t just hard—it was a distraction from the work that really mattered. And the resumes that came across my desk? Half of them made me wonder if anyone even read the job description.That’s why I started EPS Connects—to give engineering and manufacturing leaders the kind of recruiting support I wish I’d had. I’ve spent my career delivering complex systems like injection molding tools, high-speed automation, and precision assembly equipment for companies in Medical Device, Automotive, Consumer Products, and Packaging. I know what it takes to build a technical team that actually delivers.Today, I use that experience to help businesses find qualified, capable engineers and technicians—fast. No fluff, no guessing. Just the right people for the job.
