MINNEAPOLIS, Jan. 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Nortech Systems Incorporated (Nasdaq: NSYS) (“Nortech” or the “Company”), a leading provider of engineering and manufacturing solutions for complex electromedical and electromechanical products serving the medical imaging, medical device, industrial, and aerospace & defense markets, announced today that Andrew Walko has been named Senior Vice President of Global Operations.<\/p>\n

“We welcome Andrew to the Nortech team and are confident that he will provide exceptional leadership to drive the Company\u2019s strategic initiatives,” said Jay D.

We know Andrew well and we\u2019re thrilled to have him join the Nortech team.\u201d<\/p>\n

Walko has extensive experience in the medical device industry including top-level executive roles at Sanuwave and Biomerics, as well as senior manufacturing operations leadership roles at Minnetronix. “I look forward to collaborating with the talented individuals here to build on our collective strengths, drive strategic growth, and deliver exceptional value to our customers and stakeholders,” said Walko.<\/p>\n

In his new role, Walko will replace John Lindeen, who is retiring in the first quarter of 2026, and will be responsible for overseeing the Company’s global operations, including Nortech’s facilities in the U.S., Mexico and China, as well as the Company\u2019s global supply chain, new product introductions, production planning and on-time delivery.
