RPS excitedly welcomes Ernie Pido onto the team as the Director of Global Operations
and Maintenance. Mr. Pido’s career began in the classroom where he excelled in math
and science. He went on to join the Naval Academy where he studied engineering.
Ernie later earned an MBA from Ashton University and a second master’s degree in
Project Management from Penn State University. After completing a fellowship at
Ashland University, he spent eight years as a Senior Marketing Manager at Cooper
Rolls. Following Cooper Rolls’ merger into Rolls Royce Ernie became a Project
Executive. After 10 years at Rolls Royce, he received the opportunity to work on
research and development at Siemens on the SGT-A45 mobile gas turbine package.
After collaborating with RPS on this historical project, Ernie desired to “be at the front
end of a new business working on mobile power generation,” he said. He will now
provide his skills to operate and maintain RPS’ mobile gas turbine installations. “The life
cycle continues from the inception to the use of manufacturing equipment, it grows and
evolves,” he said. We are excited to utilize his vast experience and insight to impact
power generation across the globe.
