Patti Engineering’s Michigan and Texas engineering staff will supplement its Tennessee team while the company continues to hire and train additional engineers.
Although the physical office location just opened last month, Patti Engineering has been serving clients in the Southeast for a number of years. The company has completed automation projects ranging from automotive to textiles to even upgrading controls for the Chattanooga based Tennessee Valley Authority’s (TVA) Wilson Dam.
