Jason Maristanez, PE

Eight years of previous experience in project engineering and program management for plastic injection molds in the automotive industry prepped Jason for his role at HK, where he has been designing and developing our rubber gaskets and seals since 2009. Originally focused on costing and technical services when he joined HK, Jason now works mostly on innovation and new product development. Jason spends free time running, cycling and playing basketball – three sports which help him in his daily interactions with HK customers and staff. “Running and cycling require focus and personal motivation, while in basketball, you need teamwork,” he says. “Focus, motivation and teamwork – these are all things I use daily at HK.”
