In conjunction with Doneth’s promotion, Mark Ross has been named the chief executive officer and chief financial officer of the company. “I’m excited to lead the 75 employees of Hawk Technology, ALM Positioners and United Craftsmen. Next year is gearing up to be a great one,” stated Ross, who has been with Hawk/ALM for three years and was formerly the president of ALM and chief financial office of Hawk Technology.

Myron Pundt has been promoted to the vice president of engineering/research and development for Hawk. He has been with the company for 20 years and was previously the vice president of engineering. Kevin Toft has been promoted to the president of ALM Positioners, an independent subsidiary of Hawk Technology that was acquired in 2015.
