A conversation with Jay Sandidge, General Manager of Positronic in Springfield, MO. Jay has been GM for five months but has been with Positronic for nearly 20 years. We talk about Positronic's product portfolio, market focus, and desire to work closely with their customers on customized parts. We talk about being part of the 2021 acquisition by Amphenol and now understanding, three years later, why Amphenol was attracted to their business. We talk about the "generalist" part of being a general manager and how he focuses on creating a comfortable working environment for his team. We talk about moving around as a kid -- Belgium, Houston, Oklahoma, and Virginia Beach -- before settling in Springfield. We talk about his time as a drummer in a band in the early 2000s and opening for Tonic and the Goo Goo Dolls. And we discuss his desert island album, book, and movie. This is The Interface.
