Mike Harper

AutoGuide Mobile Robots, provider of high-payload autonomous mobile robots (AMR), has announced the appointment of Mike Harper as Vice President of Sales and Marketing.

"Harper will lead the sales and market share growth of AutoGuide, establish the global footprint of the company with key integration partners, and enable the success of its customers in their efforts to improve efficiency and throughput with AutoGuide's advanced, flexible and modular product architecture," said a company spokesperson.

"Working with AutoGuide to help manufacturers and warehouse managers successfully move materials through their facilities in today's rapidly changing circumstances was instantly compelling to me," Harper said. "AutoGuide's unique modular mobile robotic solutions let companies quickly get their products where they need to be, from stock to dock and back, so to speak. With AMRs that are easy to train and deploy, have short ROIs and are inherently safe, AutoGuide continues to scale fast across multiple markets while preserving its nimble, entrepreneurial culture."

Prior to joining AutoGuide, Harper served as the vice president of sales and application engineering at Soft Robotics, Inc., where he was a responsible for business development, revenue reporting to the board of directors and global leadership. Before Soft Robotics, Harper served for 10 years as the sales director for Festo U.S., leading and managing sales channels, applications engineering and business development of the U.S. sales division, including Puerto Rico. He has also served as the director of sales, Americas, Australia, New Zealand and Japan for Adept Technologies and the vice president of business development and sales for Bodine Development & Test Systems. Harper holds a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering from Georgia Tech and MBA from East Carolina University.
