Denso: We Want Creative Thinkers
Looking for a “strategic mindset” in software engineers and others
#workforcedevelopment #electronics
In late 2019, Denso celebrated its 70th year by launching a plan to transition itself from a hardware-based to software-based company.
Since then, the company has been reshaping its corporate culture to attract young innovators, says Kara Grasso, vice president of strategic operations. She champions diversity and inclusion in making Denso a place that young people will want to work for.

Denso is keenly focused on attracting software engineers and other young hires who innovate by thinking differently, then ensuring that these strategic thinkers are integrated into the company’s decision-making process, Grasso says.

Shifting Landscape of Technology Is a Never-Ending Education
Brent Donaldson, Senior Editor, Modern Machine Shop and Additive Manufacturing Magazine discusses how the shifting landscape of technology that all of Gardner’s writers and editors cover is a never-ending education. If we are truly doing our jobs, we will never feel like we’ve mastered them. As I continue writing and reporting for AM and MMS, it’s easy to imagine how these technologies’ interdependency will continue to grow. It also seems clear that this kind of reporting — the kind that requires editors to experience and share new manufacturing technologies and strategies — is the kind of reporting that only Gardner can produce with any depth. I’m grateful to be part of it.
