Over the last 14 years, Buerkler has gained a broad background in 2-D laser cutting machines. He has also provided TRUMPF customers with technical expertise by collaborating with TRUMPF's engineering, service, assembly and training departments.

In his new role, Buerkler is responsible for expanding TRUMPF's market share by helping fabricators realize the benefits of laser tube processing. He will work together with TRUMPF's TruLaser Tube customers to help optimize their tube cutting capabilities and will serve as a technology expert, providing product and process support to the sales organization.

In 2011, Harooni began his PhD studies in mechanical engineering with a minor in laser welding at the Research Center for Advanced Manufacturing at SMU in Dallas, TX. Harooni has received both his bachelor's and master's degrees in mechanical engineering.
