More engineers are coming to Warren these days, and part of that is thanks to Waltonen Engineering.

The Warren-based firm, founded in 1957, recently won a Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract with the United States Army's Tank Automotive Research, Development and Engineering Center in Warren. That will allow it to bid on more military contracts, giving it more opportunity for growth and hiring within the next five years.

The company has been on a bit of a hiring tear lately. It has beefed up its staff of more than 100 people by 40 percent in the last year and also has a few people at an office in Germany. That growth is expected to continue in a number of sectors as new business warrants it.

Waltonen Engineering has diversified its client portfolio to include projects in the automotive, defense, aerospace, and medical device sectors.

"Our growth has been across all of these areas," says Thomas Laboda, director of business for Waltonen Engineering.
