Professional Journey

Winter built his career in enterprise technology, spending more than three decades building partner-driven organizations and scaling professional services businesses at global companies including IBM, Oracle and Hitachi Consulting. GoEngineer’s announcement does not give his titles or dates at those companies.

In May 2026 GoEngineer, based in Salt Lake City, named him Chief Executive Officer. The appointment ended the founder’s long tenure: Ken Coburn had started GoEngineer in 1984 and built it over 42 years into an authorized partner for engineering technology vendors that supports the whole product lifecycle, from strategy and system implementation to hands-on engineering execution, for customers in high-tech, medical, aerospace, automotive, energy and industrial manufacturing. Coburn said in the announcement that he was confident “handing the reins” to Winter.

The company said it chose Winter because of its increased focus on expanding professional services, where his background in running large services organizations and building strategic partnerships applies directly. On joining, Winter said he would build on the foundation Coburn and the team had created, and that the company’s commitment to its customers and its culture were what drew him to it.
