See what some of our employees have to say:

“In my five years at HZO as an engineer, I’ve encountered no shortage of problems to solve. The trickiest ones don’t belong to any one role or department, so they’re solved by those who take ownership. That creates room to grow and solving those problems rarely goes unacknowledged. It’s seen and rewarded with trust and responsibility. I get to work with technical teams from the most innovative companies out there. The exposure to that caliber of professional skill is priceless and refreshing.”

—–Dusty, Director of Process Engineering

“It is exciting to work with new people from different areas and backgrounds. We have an opportunity to grow, work with new people, and move the company forward. I like that I’m not being micromanaged. I am given some direction and the ability to manage my time to drive myself to arrive at the needed outcome. I fill several gaps in different areas and I am able to give input into where I would like to use my talents. I don’t feel limited by my department, title, and job description.”

—–Stephanie, Assistant Controller – Systems

“I have been with HZO going on five years. Every time I have thought this is my horizon a new opportunity and challenge presents itself. Although some of these challenges seem far reached and unattainable HZO has given me the tools needed to reach those goals and to continue to set the bar even higher.”
