MEC Expands Product Management Team With Two Appointments

MEC Aerial Work Platforms has expanded its product management organization with the addition of Rob Orlowski and Corey Raymo, strengthening the company's product development and strategy efforts.

According to MEC, the expanded team will support product innovation by incorporating customer feedback and rental fleet needs into future product development.

Rob Orlowski joined the company in January 2026 as director of product development. In the role, he oversees MEC's product development process, cross-functional program execution and product portfolio analytics. Before joining MEC, Orlowski held leadership positions in engineering, product management and marketing with Hitachi Construction Machinery, Link-Belt, Komatsu America Corporation and Case New Holland.

Corey Raymo joined MEC in March 2026 as director of aerial work platform products. He is responsible for product strategy and lifecycle management across the company's portfolio of scissor lifts, vertical mast lifts and boom lifts. Raymo brings more than 20 years of experience in the mobile elevating work platform industry, including product management, engineering and aftermarket leadership positions at JLG Industries and Manitou Americas. Most recently, he served as global engineering director for Carrier Transicold.

MEC said the additions expand its product leadership capabilities as the company continues investing in new product development and portfolio growth.

"MEC continues to invest aggressively in the people, processes and technologies that drive product innovation," said David Baxter, vice president of product management at MEC. "Rob and Corey are highly accomplished industry leaders whose combined expertise spans product strategy, engineering, market development and customer engagement. Their additions strengthen MEC’s ability to bring innovative, market-specific solutions to our North American customers faster while supporting the continued growth of our award-winning product portfolio."

Baxter added, "As our customers' needs evolve, MEC is committed to investing in the talent and capabilities necessary to remain a trusted partner and product innovator for working at height."

MEC said the expanded product management team supports its broader North American growth strategy as the company continues developing products shaped by customer needs.
