His leadership roles have subsequently included group leader, engineering manager, manager of current products, and most recently, chief engineer. He is known to take new engineers under his wing, aiding their development into engineering professionals. In addition to his role as a mentor and leader, Dominic Grote noted, “Chuck’s strong work ethic, commitment to completing tasks, and dedication to Grote’s core values of trust, integrity, responsibility, and respect have made him a trusted leader at Grote Industries. Under O’Neal’s leadership as the new executive director for US Engineering, the future of Grote Industries looks bright.”
