A designer of several award-winning products, Pierce has also held high-level engineering positions with Niles Audio and Menlo Scientific., and contributed to the development of several patents.
"I'm really pleased to be joining a company as forward-thinking as Renkus-Heinz," Pierce remarks. "For me, this is truly the ideal opportunity to maximize the skills I've acquired through my years of loudspeaker design, and take things to a whole new level. I'm looking forward to taking on the challenge of designing the next generation of Renkus-Heinz loudspeakers."
"We're thrilled to welcome Derrick to Renkus-Heinz," added Ralph Heinz, the company's senior vice president. "Renkus-Heinz is proud of having a long history of innovation, and that's largely due to the very talented and creative people who work here. Derrick's background and expertise make him a perfect fit, and we're pleased to have him on our team."
Pierce will be based at Renkus-Heinz's headquarters in Foothill Ranch, CA, and will report directly to Ralph Heinz.
