Its micromachining systems, laser beam delivery systems, automation, and motion control systems are used in photovoltaic, semiconductor, and other industrial applications. JPSA Laser also performs contract manufacturing, optical design consulting, applications development, and excimer laser refurbishment services.

Cuneo is a graduate of Yale University and earned an MBA from Harvard Business School where he concentrated on marketing and international business.

Previously, he was chief operating officer of Gibson Guitars of Nashville, TN.
