FOR-A America Welcomes Jo Aun as Senior Manager of Product Engineering

FOR-A America, a leading provider of video and audio solutions for the broadcast and production industries, has announced the appointment of Jo Aun as Senior Manager of Product Engineering. Jo Aun will be based in FOR-A's Cypress, Calif., office and will oversee the entire product life cycle of FOR-A, from concept to post-sales support.

Prior to joining FOR-A America, Jo Aun was a system consultant specializing in IP and cloud solutions at Riedel Communications. Earlier in his career, he served as deputy sales engineering manager at FOR-A Corp. in Tokyo, where he supervised international system integrations including projects for the New World Symphony and large-scale U.S. houses of worship.

In his new role, Jo Aun will work on IP-based platforms like the FOR-A Impulse live production system and Hi-RDS resource sharing software. His technical background and customer experience are expected to have an immediate impact, ensuring customer feedback directly informs product strategy.

Satoshi Araki, who joined FOR-A America as product manager, IP, will focus specifically on IP products, not broadcast and video technology across the U.S. as Jo Aun's role encompasses. Araki was previously at FOR-A Corp.'s Japan headquarters, where he led systems integration of all IP-related products.

Jo Aun will serve as a liaison between FOR-A's U.S. operation and its Tokyo headquarters. He will guide the planning, development, and rollout of FOR-A's broadcast and video technology across the U.S., lead engineering activities, manage system integrations, and support the training of U.S.-based staff.

Satoshi Kanemura, President and Chief Operating Officer at FOR-A, will oversee Jo Aun's work. Jo Aun's understanding of FOR-A technology and specific customer needs in the U.S. market will help deliver practical, forward-looking, and customer-focused solutions.

FOR-A America has not disclosed the exact date or timeframe when Jo Aun took up his new position. Jo Aun can be reached at [email protected]. The appointment follows that of Satoshi Araki, marking a strategic move by FOR-A America to strengthen its IP product offerings and customer-focused approach.
