FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Trachte Announces Appointment of John Emery as Chief Revenue Officer

We are pleased to announce that John Emery has joined the organization as Chief Revenue Officer reporting to the Chief Executive Officer.

John has over 20 years of experience building and leading industrial businesses in custom engineered environments such as turbine engine control systems, fuel cell and microturbine technologies, steam and gas turbines, and equipment and services for integrated power plant solutions for renewable energy. In his most recent role with GE Vernova (formerly Baker Hughes) as the Global Commercial Leader of Nexus Controls, John supported an 11% business growth within 1.5 years by realigning his direct sales team to support an 18% sales improvement and new market expansion. John is a collaborative change agent accomplished in developing high performing teams.

In this new role, John will be responsible for leading the development and execution of the commercial strategy to support and deliver on Trachte’s growth plan. He will be pulling from the rich history of both Trachte and Parkline to think creatively about new markets and how to best serve a broader customer base. Most importantly, John will be working closely with engineering and project management to create a commercial infrastructure that provides guardrails for selling complex, made-to-order products, while allowing the requisite flexibility for change orders.

John has a BS degree in Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering from the University of Illinois and an MBA in Marketing from Northern Illinois University.
