Defense systems engineering and DevOps consulting for space and DOD programs

Defense and Space Manufacturing Lafayette, Colorado 51–200 employees Founded 2017 Privately Held

Centil is a defense engineering and systems consulting firm built around lean/agile transformation and DevOps practices for aerospace and DOD contractors. The tech stack—Jenkins, GitLab, Kubernetes, OpenShift, Docker, plus low-level infrastructure (RHEL, VMware, Cisco)—reflects dual focus on both modernizing CI/CD pipelines and securing highly regulated ground systems. Active hiring skews heavily toward senior engineers (5 of 8 roles) across the org, paired with intense project velocity around satellite cybersecurity, compliance automation (RMF/STIG), and automated testing—all flagged internally as critical gaps.
