Building a Manufacturing Career at DIS
January 29, 2025 | Marcy LaRont, PCB007 MagazineEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Ryan Moore, 27, and Emily Telesca, 31, are two millennials who share their unique perspectives on building a career in the manufacturing industry. With backgrounds ranging from computer science to military service, they highlight the fulfilling nature of their roles and the sense of camaraderie within the company. Their stories illuminate the opportunities available in manufacturing, especially for a younger generation seeking meaningful work.
Marcy LaRont: Please introduce yourselves and tell us how you ended up at DIS.
Ryan Moore: I studied computer science and IT in school, and started at DIS in 2018 through an internship. It was a really interesting experience because when you work in software you don’t normally get to see a direct result of your work. For example, you write code for a website, but you can't physically see something move. You don’t see the impact of your work. At DIS, we're making machines work. When I write code for DIS, I get to watch motors move, circuit boards come out and know that I was part of that. It's a very fulfilling and interesting job.
Emily Telesca: My background isn’t as cut and dry as Ryan’s. I joined the Marine Corps the day after my 19th birthday and served for about eight years. After that, I studied criminology and criminal justice at Arizona State University and then fell into a job working in auto claims, and eventually I did online personal training after COVID. I came to DIS wanting to work in person again because all my personal training clients were online, and I missed being a part of a team and community.
I heard about this job through Mike Faraci, Tony’s son, who also works here. He knew the Marine Corps had given me a lot of administrative experience with managing big workloads. Now, I'm working on the inventory management system that we created to track all the parts. I work with suppliers on all purchase orders. It’s different from what I have done previously, but I really enjoy it, especially working with the team here at DIS. We are a very close-knit group, a family-like culture, which reminds me a lot of the Marine Corps, and I love that.
