Trex manufactures composite decking products (95%+ recycled content) and is actively modernizing its enterprise stack—adopting Oracle and SAP while maintaining legacy systems like JD Edwards, SCADA, and EDI. The hiring mix (finance, ops, and sales leading; engineering smaller) reflects a manufacturing-operations-focused organization scaling post-merger integration, with current projects centered on production efficiency, quality automation, and sales enablement rather than software innovation.
Notable leadership hires: National Accounts Director, Team Lead
