The Evolution of PCtronics

After a successful career in Austria, firstly working in finance and later assisting her family business become one of the leading IT consultants and Hewlett Packard distributers in Vienna, Manal Iskander returned to the United States in 1997 and founded PCtronics.

Manal surrounded herself with a small, but highly skilled team of engineers comprising MIT graduates and one of the very first engineers to obtain a formal Microsoft Certification – Manfred Schmutzer. Manfred, one of the founding members of PCtronics is now our C.T.O. providing technical oversight and leadership to all PCtronics technical systems and projects.

Partnering with a major accountancy software firm, the word quickly spread and PCtronics soon became the IT consultant of choice for a diverse portfolio of companies from a broad cross-section of different industries across Southern California.

In 2015, Manal recruited Nick Harney to head up PCtronics’ operations. Bringing 40 plus years experience serving primarily public sector clients, Nick focused initially on assisting PCtronics attain the necessary qualifications to serve the public sector and secured some major contracts with leading municipal entities. Through this period PCtronics added highly experienced, ex. military Cyber Security experts to its team which proved to be a timely addition to proactively head-off the steady increase in malware and ransomware attacks.
