Industrial cutting systems and CAM software for fabrication and manufacturing
Hypertherm manufactures plasma and waterjet cutting systems, CNCs, and CAM software for heavy fabrication—ships, aircraft, steel structures, and wind turbines. The tech stack spans industrial control (Allen-Bradley, Fanuc, SCADA, EtherCAT) and modern cloud (Azure, AWS adoption), paired with active hiring across engineering and manufacturing. Current project focus on autonomous mobile robots, kaizen/lean continuous improvement, and safety strategy signals operational maturity and internal systems modernization rather than product pivot.
