General Manager, Re:Build Applied Logix

Who are Re:Build AppliedLogix and Re:Build Manufacturing?

Based in Rochester, NY, Re:Build AppliedLogix (AX) provides product OEMs with leading-edge embedded systems design services and product commercialization expertise. Our electronics, software, and mechanical engineers bring deep, cross-disciplinary experience to a wide range of industries including industrial automation, telecom and networking, aerospace and defense, medical devices, energy and utilities, transportation and logistics, and agriculture and precision farming.

With a team of 70+ engineers, Re:Build AppliedLogix offers its customers uncommon depth and breadth across the critical skillsets essential to modern digital systems product development, including:

  • Custom analog and high-speed digital embedded electronics and fully integrated subsystems.
  • Embedded software and firmware on bare metal, RTOS, or Linux (as appropriate for the application).
  • Full-stack application development (Linux & Windows).
  • Enclosures for electronic systems.
  • Mechanical systems.
  • Tooling design and manufacturing process development.
  • Cost-effective, rapid prototyping.

Re:Build Manufacturing was founded to ensure that the next generation of important products are made, at-scale, in America. We've assembled a powerful set of complementary capabilities and lines of business that enable us to design and manufacture nearly anything. Our acquired and organically grown businesses employ experts in every major engineering discipline, and we leverage their combined expertise to advance increasingly sophisticated program development and production—as well as the creation of our own products. This unique set of capabilities—integrated into a single company and built upon common processes and culture—lends itself to highly complex systems and products. We offer customers a full range of services, including product and systems design, automation, fabrication, assembly, and large-volume manufacturing. Our customers span a wide array of industries, including aerospace, defense, mobility, healthcare, pharma, biotech, clean tech, chemicals, energy, lifestyle, food production, and industrial equipment.

The way we go about this work is as important as the work itself. We are guided by The Re:Build Way—sixteen principles that shape how we work with each other, our customers, our vendors, and the communities where we operate. See our principles here: The Re:Build Way

  • Lead, manage, and develop a high-performing team with a strong, positive operating culture.
  • Support business development by meeting with customers and participating in selling activities—both AppliedLogix-specific opportunities and opportunities across multiple Re:Build operations. Lead revenue generation in partnership with AX salespeople, program managers, and the RBM commercial teams.
  • Ensure an elevated level of customer satisfaction through innovative problem-solving and effective communication.
  • Lead engineering and development process improvements that enable the business to scale and to support customers in their program development.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
