HawkEye 360 operates satellites that detect and geolocate radio frequency emissions, delivering signals intelligence to US and allied government customers. Its stack pairs spacecraft engineering tools (NX, SolidWorks, Nastran, Abaqus) with a cloud-native ground platform on Kubernetes, ArgoCD and Terraform. Finance hiring around SEC reporting, Deltek Costpoint adoption and M&A accounting points to a company building public-company-grade financial controls.
HawkEye 360 is a privately held defense and space company founded in 2015 and headquartered in Herndon, Virginia.
