Leadership Team

“Created to Make A Difference.”

Stanford Torvik, P.E. launched TOP Engineers Plus in the spring of 2018 with a vision and goal of creating a Communications Engineering firm that provides the latest technology to empower clients in the Communications and Electric Utilities industries to meet the ever-evolving demands with strength and independence while maintaining respect and honor among clients and employees. Stanford’s belief that everyone is “created to make a difference” motivated him to create an organization that provides an avenue for employees to engage in work that make a difference as well as empower organizations in the Communications and Electric Utilities industries to create a difference in the lives of the members they serve.

As TOP Engineers Plus has expanded, Stanford and his leadership team have brought on individuals who add to TOP’s extensive experience and expertise. This brings a compelling portfolio of service capability and organizational maturity. The team assembled is not only one of extensive experience but one of impeccable character. The manner in which we deliver services to our clients is every bit as important as the service itself.

President and Owner

 

Stanford Torvik is an experienced executive with a demonstrated history of working in the telecommunications industry skilled in Fiber Optic technology, Strategic Planning, Team Building, Microwave Engineering and Telecommunications. As a Professional Engineer with over 38 years of experience spanning from entry level engineering; to executive level responsibility for technical strategic direction for a $1B+ engineering firm; to launching TOP Engineers Plus to offer a full spectrum of engineering services in the telecommunications industry.

By creating TOP Engineer Plus, Stanford actualized the vision to create a unique connection between Technology, Operations and People. Stan leads the charge and empowers the organization to provide the latest technology that can be integrated seamlessly into critical infrastructure operations while maintaining a respectful and honorable relationship with people.

Stan built a team, at TOP Engineers Plus, with decades of experience, to take on the most complex projects and programs in Fiber Optic Technology, Strategic Planning, Team Building, Microwave Engineering and Telecommunications. He gathered and supported the resources to provide services in the critical infrastructure industry in three major categories.

The first involves Master Planning, Technology Roadmaps, and Implementation Cost Analysis to provide the client an executable plan. The second category is Transport and Coverage design using Fiber, Microwave and various RF platforms. The third category includes Outside Plant Design, Fiber-to-the-Home, Field Site Surveys and Construction Management. The shared services that cross all three of these categories include GIS, CADD, Project Management and Advisory Services.

Over the course of his career, Stan has established relationships throughout the industry on the basis of mutual collaboration and a high value for supporting one another’s efforts to be successful in the industry. This has served TOP Engineers Plus well in that we have established resources we may call upon to collaborate with TOP Engineers Plus to provide robust, turnkey Communications Engineering services across a vast number of disciplines.
