Heavy-duty lift manufacturer for fleet and logistics operations
Mohawk manufactures service lifts for fleet, government, and commercial customers across the U.S., with a vertically integrated operation (welding, CNC, assembly) spanning 51–200 employees. The company is adopting CMMS (computerized maintenance management) while scaling manufacturing capacity—a signal they're moving from reactive upkeep to predictive maintenance and operational control. Manufacturing dominates hiring (13 of 18 open roles), with active projects in lean manufacturing and facility automation, but a single engineering headcount suggests product development relies on external or ad-hoc resources.

Mohawk Lifts supplies heavy-duty service equipment to fleets, government agencies, and industrial logistics operators across the United States. Founded in 1981 and headquartered in Amsterdam, NY, the company manufactures lifts in-house using MIG welding and CNC machining. Their operational footprint centers on production scaling—material shortages, scrap reduction, and equipment uptime appear regularly in challenges—while sales pursuits include large national accounts and distributor-based service projects. The product strategy emphasizes safety systems, construction quality, and warranty coverage as differentiators in the lift industry.
Mohawk uses Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, PowerPoint, Outlook), PLC controllers, MIG welding equipment, CNC machinery, and UPS systems. The company is currently implementing a CMMS (computerized maintenance management system).
