Weiler has appointed Joel Weiler as Engineering Manager for the Knoxville-based manufacturer and elevated him to the senior management team.

 Joel joined the company in August of 2019 as Safety Manager. His efforts reduced the company’s safety incident rate by over 50% and was also tasked with managing response to the COVID-19 pandemic. In November of 2020, Joel assumed the role of HR Operations Manager and held that position through the end of 2022. Upon the December 2022 completion of Weiler’s latest 125,000 square foot building addition, he transitioned into the role of Production Manager and led the in-sourcing of nearly 100% of Weiler’s flat steel cutting.

 Starting March 4th, Joel Weiler assumed the role of Engineering Manager and is responsible for managing the engineering, service, and technical publication departments, in addition to human resources and the company’s wire harness assembly department. He also holds seats on the boards of directors for Weiler, Weiler Forestry, and the Weiler Foundation for charitable giving.
