Hoover Treated Wood Products operates ten manufacturing plants across the US producing fire-retardant lumber and plywood. The tech stack reveals a manufacturing-heavy operations footprint—Allen-Bradley, Rockwell Automation, Siemens, SCADA, and MES systems—paired with NetSuite ERP and Power BI for business intelligence. Active hiring leans heavily toward manufacturing roles, but the project pipeline (SCADA/MES integration, SQL data warehouse, industrial network security, ERP customization) signals a digital-transformation push aimed at operational visibility and automation.
Notable leadership hires: Software Development Lead, Chief Financial Officer
