 HelioVolt Corporation CEO Dr. B.J. Stanbery (pictured) has announced the appointment of two new vice presidents in preparation for the company's expansion plans. Ex-Applied Materials managing director of materials Larry Peruffo is set to take up the role of VP of HelioVolt's supply chain, while Essilor Laboratories' former VP of operations and technology, David Bowen, has been named as VP of manufacturing operations.
Mr. Peruffo's 24-year occupation with Applied Materials saw him hold various roles, culminating in his most recent post of managing director of materials. This new role with HelioVolt will see him apply the expertise garnered from his time with Applied Materials to the Texas-based company, developing its supply chain operations to implement the company's processes and technologies across its product lines.
Mr. Bowen's tenure as VP of operations and technology with Essilor Laboratories of America saw him aid in the company's transition to large-scale production. Prior to this role, he was manager of global operations strategy for Black & Decker, and brings this operations experience to HelioVolt's product development expansion strategy.
HelioVolt is a thin-film solar products manufacturer based in Texas.
