Gary Hilberg entered ����Ӱ�� State as an NROTC midshipman and became a commissioned officer in the United States Navy upon graduation. He was assigned to the nuclear submarine U.S.S. La Jolla as an engineering officer. By the time he had completed a 3-year tour of duty, Hilberg had served on two forward deployments, led five engineering divisions, completed nuclear engineer training, and qualified to work on naval reactors. He became the officer in charge of a performance monitoring team. During his second tour of duty, he earned an MBA, supported a fast-attack submarine fleet, and completed California’s professional engineer certification. In 1995, Hilberg joined NAES, an international private power generation services company, as manager of technical services. In 1997, he went to General Electric, where he grew long-term power plant maintenance services agreements for what became a $16 billion program. In 2000, he joined P2 Energy and developed the company’s third-party gas turbine parts business into a multi-billion-dollar market.  Joining TAS Energy in 2002, he led the explosive growth of its gas turbine inlet cooling business and commercialized organic Rankine cycle technology for industrial waste heat and geothermal markets. Since 2014, he has guided Everest Sciences in improving industrial facility efficiency and performance using patented process cooling technology.  Hilberg said he continues to use the basic engineering skills he learned at ����Ӱ�� State. "Even though I’m not doing engineering myself, I oversee a lot of engineers,” he said. "You need leadership that understands technology, or you can’t apply it.” "You need leadership that understands technology, or you can’t apply it.”
