Altus Group, a leading supplier of capital equipment for the electronics industry, is pleased to announce the appointment of Andras Fekete as their new After Sales Support Engineer for Ireland. This strategic move comes as the company experiences significant growth in its business and an expanding customer base in the region, necessitating dedicated support for customers during both pre and post-sales stages.

Having previously supported Altus in the UK, Andras is ready to hit the ground running in his new role and provide immediate value to customers. His advanced skills and experience in both operating and servicing the extensive Altus range of equipment make him an ideal fit for the position.
Based in Cork, Ireland, Andras will be strategically located to support existing Altus customers in the southern region, while collaborating with Senior Applications Engineer Michal Ostrykiewicz and Sales Manager Gareth Fenton to further enhance Altus' support offerings and expand the user base in Ireland.
