Seegrid Announces Key Promotions Including Chief Operating Officer

Seegrid Corporation, the leader in autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) for material handling, today announced several key internal promotions. The leadership team expansion follows a record-breaking year, reflecting an increasing volume of new orders and rising demand for automation technologies.

Tim Spang, who has led the company’s operations teams for the past five years, executing Seegrid’s core business strategies and overseeing the operational functions of the company, has been promoted to Chief Operating Officer (COO). Spang’s extensive experience stems from 30 years of accelerating product development, ensuring exceptional quality, and improving production efficiency in the manufacturing and distribution facilities of large medical device and technology companies, including Haemonetics, Ariba, and Bayer.

“Tim Spang is a change agent, mentor, and strategist,” said Jim Rock, Seegrid’s Chief Executive Officer. “His relentless focus and keen ability to achieve operational excellence is instrumental to Seegrid’s ability to quickly deliver on our customer’s automation initiatives with superior mobile robotic solutions.”

“The market for mobile robotics and enterprise software is rapidly growing, and our talented delivery and support teams are continuously demonstrating industry-leading best practices that instill trust with our customers,” said Tim Spang, Seegrid’s Chief Operating Officer. “I look forward to continuing to create value for our customers and reshape the future of the supply chain through automation technology.”

Underscoring the company’s commitment to providing growth opportunities to its employees, Seegrid also announced four Director level promotions from its talented workforce:

I’m incredibly proud to see Autumn, Jon, Joe, and Heather expand Seegrid’s bench of outstanding Director-level leaders,” added Rock. “Each of our leaders play a critical role in providing the value, safety, predictability, and efficiency that our customers expect.
