Cesar’s connection to Janicki began while growing up in Anacortes, Washington. The company’s reputation was familiar with Janicki being a large employer in the Skagit Valley. After graduating with a materials science engineering degree from the University of Washington, that connection solidified at a career fair. Recognizing Cesar’s potential, Janicki offered him a project engineer role.
“When I first joined Janicki, I wasn’t certain about the type of engineering job I wanted,” shared Cesar. “But as I grew into my role, I realized I want to pursue this for the rest of my career.”
For three years, Cesar has worked at Janicki managing composite aerospace tooling projects, which the customer uses to lay up fly-away parts. He is currently working on an urban air mobility project that he’s very passionate about.
Cesar’s role encompasses managing the entire project’s life, from customer collaboration on design to final delivery. His meticulous oversight ensures the tool meets specifications throughout fabrication, quality checks, and shipment. He works with many manufacturing teams and other engineers to complete the project.
“I love the culture at Janicki. I’m surrounded by people that want me to succeed,” said Cesar. “My coworkers always have my back, and everybody has the same mentality about wanting to deliver an excellent product to the customer.”
When not at work, Cesar laces up his cleats as a forward on the company’s soccer team, which competes weekly in Bellingham. He also enjoys mountain biking and can often be found shredding the trails in the Anacortes Community Forest Lands. He is also a member of JIBS, Janicki’s mountain bike club and maintenance shop.
Cesar recently returned from a trip to Lebanon to visit his extended family. Both of his parents are Lebanese, and Cesar speaks fluent Arabic. He was also born in Thailand before moving to the U.S., where his father worked at a refinery. His multicultural background is a source of pride.
We’re proud to have Cesar on our team, where his talent and passion fuel innovation.
