New York, NY – Persistent Systems, LLC (“Persistent”) is pleased to announce the hiring of George Schick as its Operations Manager.

Persistent has experienced tremendous growth due to the recent release of its revolutionary MPU5 product family, and Mr. Schick’s arrival is a sign of Persistent’s commitment to and investment in its manufacturing capabilities and quality management.

Mr. Schick’s background in manufacturing, networking, and computing make him an ideal choice to scale the company’s production lines to meet the demands of its expanding customer base.

Mr. Schick joins Persistent from Apple, Inc., for which he served as Test Engineering and Operations Technical Manager based in Cupertino, CA. He oversaw all technical operations in two U.S. factories where Apple manufactures Mac Pros and iMac desktop computers.

As Persistent’s MPU5 devices proliferate throughout the soldier systems and unmanned systems community, Persistent’s products need to survive and thrive whether they are worn, flown, driven, submerged, or even thrown through windows. End users depend on Persistent’s quality and reliability in the most challenging operating environments, and Persistent intends to continue investing in its design, manufacturing, and quality divisions to ensure the continued satisfaction of its demanding customers.
