DePauw joins Heller with more than 25 years of experience in the electronics manufacturing, SMT, and Semiconductor industry, bringing a proven track record of building strategic relationships and driving customer success across global markets.

In his new role, DePauw will focus on supporting Heller’s key customers, leveraging his extensive experience in sales leadership, program management, and technical operations to deliver high-impact solutions aligned with customer needs.

Supporting Continued Growth and Demand

The addition of DePauw reflects Heller’s continued expansion in both market demand and organizational scale. As the company experiences sustained global growth, strategic hires like DePauw ensure Heller remains well-positioned to support increasingly complex customer requirements.

“Heller continues to grow alongside our customers,” said David Heller, CEO of Heller Industries. “Mike’s deep industry expertise and customer-first mindset will play a critical role as we scale globally and strengthen our partnerships.”
