Duos Technologies Group said Aug. 28 it hired the former head of APR Energy as its new chief executive officer.
Chuck Ferry becomes CEO of the Jacksonville-based technology company Sept. 1, succeeding Duos founder Gianni Arcaini, who announced his retirement in July.
Ferry resigned as CEO of Jacksonville-based APR in April, after Atlas Corp. acquired the fast-track power plant company in February.
Besides his experience at APR, Ferry is a former general manager of defense contracting company ARMA Global Corp. and he spent 26 years in the U.S. Army.
“Between his years in the mission-critical environments of active duty military service and his proven track record in the corporate world over the past decade-plus timeframe, Chuck has shown himself to be a proven operator and a results-driven executive," Duos director Ken Ehrman said in a news release.
"Over the next few months, Chuck and the board will be working together to identify and execute a long-term strategy aimed at positioning Duos effectively for profitable growth and expansion in the years ahead.”
