Commercial fitness equipment manufacturer with embedded electronics and connected wellness solutions
Life Fitness / Hammer Strength manufactures cardio and strength equipment for commercial gyms, health clubs, and institutional fitness spaces. The tech stack reveals a hardware-first engineering operation: CAD tools (Solidware, Altium Designer), embedded systems (C#, LabVIEW, motor control PCBs), and enterprise manufacturing software (Teamcenter, Oracle ERP). The hiring mix is heavily weighted toward manufacturing (41 roles) with sparse engineering (5 roles), indicating they're scaling production capacity and supply-chain operations rather than software development — consistent with active projects focused on PCB design, sourcing, plant productivity, and inventory management.
Life Fitness / Hammer Strength designs and manufactures cardio and strength equipment sold to commercial gyms, hotels, corporate wellness programs, and rehabilitation facilities. The company operates across multiple manufacturing sites and serves both elite athletic facilities and consumer health clubs globally. Their product portfolio includes exercise bikes, treadmills, strength machines, and connected accessories. Active projects span motor control PCB design, touchscreen interfaces, new product development sourcing, and process improvements in quality integration and material review. Current challenges center on production efficiency, on-time delivery, inventory accuracy, and supply-chain consolidation across manufacturing locations.
