Titanic Ambitions for Manufacturer
Three-year-old Auburn firm earning millions, growing Titan Gilroy is aggressive.And while his days as a professional boxer may have something to do with it, his aggression these days is all business.”I’m so aggressive that I didn’t really fit in with any other company” Gilroy said. “Now that I am on my own, we are doing things the way they need to be done.”The owner of Auburn’s new manufacturing company, Titan Engineering, started out small, with two employees and a building less than half the size of the one he is now across from the Coherent buildings at the Airport Industrial Park.Today, the high-end CNC (computer numerically controlled) machining company has grown to include nearly 40 employees, and Gilroy plans on hiring about 20 more this year.The Auburn-based company produces titanium, fiberglass, plastic and aluminum parts used in outer space by NASA, deep into the ocean for remotely operated drilling machines, and also makes parts used in water-desalination machines, tattoo guns, paint ball guns and more.”
