Wilson has been in engineering for over 45 years, starting his career at a large textile machinery manufacturer in Northern Ireland before earning his engineering certifications and moving to New Zealand. He built his career through quality assurance and into production management across the manufacturing sector, accumulating a depth of real-world experience that cannot be replicated in a classroom or a consultancy report.
He has been part of Pro-Dev since the very beginning. His specialisation in design for manufacture and quality control is one of the quiet reasons Pro-Dev’s products perform the way they do. Wilson thinks in manufacturing constraints instinctively. When a design lands on his desk, he already knows what will and will not work on the factory floor, and he will tell you directly.
