RV, automotive, and marine component manufacturer serving OEM and aftermarket
Lippert is a large-scale discrete manufacturer producing RV chassis, marine furniture, transit components, and automotive parts. The tech stack is heavily weighted toward CAD (AutoCAD, SolidWorks, Altium, Solid Edge), manufacturing execution (MIG/GMAW welding, Fanuc CNC, Mastercam, Allen-Bradley PLCs), and ERP (Dynamics NAV, Dynamics 365). Manufacturing dominates hiring (287 of 434 open roles), with junior-level roles filling 50% of postings—indicating aggressive capacity scaling to meet production demand against persistent material-availability and lead-time constraints.
