Doug McBane

Vice President, Quality

Mr. McBane has over 25 years of executive leadership experience in both the Technology and Defense-related industries serving in key Engineering, Operations and Product Lifecycle roles. In these roles, Doug has delivered industry-leading technologies in both the HDD and Semi industries, successfully transitioning designs from development into high volume manufacturing - on time, on cost, on quality - leveraging global supply chains supporting Tier 1 Automotive and Consumer Electronic customers.  Further, using operational discipline, he has been instrumental in growing revenue in businesses from $250M to over $1B+ while improving product margins through aggressive cost and yield management and navigating multiple acquisitions and integrations.
