Laura Steinke — Program Manager

(613) 736-5665 x. 272
laura.steinke@ocmmanufacturing.com

Laura Steinke is the newest member to the OCM Customer Service Team as a Program Manager. Laura has been involved in the contract manufacturing industry for 18+ years and has experienced many of the different roles involved in the business, from shop floor, documentation and QA, to Program Management (for the last 12+years). She is as comfortable with products that involve simple cable harnesses and circuit boards to complex multi-level box builds. She brings to OCM a diverse knowledge of the requirements involved in managing a project, from the initial quotation stage all the way to final shipment.

When Laura is not working, she can usually be found tending to gardens and landscaping, or relaxing outside with a cup of coffee (or two) with her family and pets. The exception to this is winter, when she prefers to hibernate with the warmth of a fireplace.
