  • #371 - Industrial Expertise: Why Harder Industries Attract Better Customers With William Bethurum
    Nov 4 2025

    About William:

    In the 90s, I cut my teeth in LA building oil refineries and large semiconductor projects for Jacobs Engineering. Construction was always more interesting to me than designing microelectronic circuits. During this time, I learned about procurement, project management, and the many intricacies of electrical engineering on large scale projects, while studying finance at Cal State Long Beach at night.
    Our engineering firm was started shortly afterward in 1996 under the name Industrial Power Engineering Corporation, a big title for a small company at the time. Over the next 28 years, we have expanded to other industries, built larger and larger projects, survived two recessions, rebuilt, rebranded, made a bunch of mistakes along the way, and ultimately came to where we are today as Volta, serving international clients and engineering facilities with sizes approaching $2B TCV.
    Aside from working with what I feel is a great bunch of people we call our team here, I really enjoy working with architects, contractors, owners, and other consultants directly in our project activities. Our purpose at volta is infinite possibilities, which is to say we want to drive our business and culture at scale with the intention to open doors and possibilities for our employees and all of our stakeholders. We know to do this, we will need to pursue excellence in all areas of our business and continue to bring in great people.
    Personal interests include architectural design, physical training, and travel. Pets include English yellow labs. A former surfer, skater, and bass player. A lifelong LA Dodgers fan.www.VoltaUS.com-----------------------------
