Global satellite and hybrid-network operator for remote operations
Speedcast operates a multi-modal communications infrastructure (satellite, fiber, cellular, SD-WAN, MPLS) serving 3,200+ customers across maritime, energy, mining, and government sectors. The tech stack reflects a hybrid-operations company: ServiceNow and SolarWinds for IT/network ops, Docker and Kubernetes for containerized edge deployments, and dual SD-WAN platforms (Versa and Cisco). Active hiring in finance, engineering, and ops suggests scaling post-acquisition integration and edge infrastructure rollout—evident in projects around IoT tracking, Iridium Certus management, and edge computing deployment.
Speedcast provides communications and IT services to remote and offshore operations globally. The company operates a hybrid network platform combining satellite, fiber, cellular, and terrestrial technologies to deliver coverage across 140+ countries. Its customer base spans maritime shipping, offshore energy, mining, media distribution, cruise lines, telecom operators, NGOs, and government agencies. The platform integrates network management, content distribution, cybersecurity, and crew/guest experience tools. With headquarters in Houston and hiring across Australia, Brazil, India, Philippines, Malaysia, and Singapore, Speedcast operates as a distributed, ops-centric organization managing mission-critical connectivity for remote locations with limited redundancy.
Speedcast runs ServiceNow for IT service management, Versa and Cisco SD-WAN for hybrid network orchestration, Kubernetes and Docker for edge compute, SolarWinds for network monitoring, and AWS/Azure for cloud integration. Infrastructure tools include VMware ESXi, KVM, Proxmox, and Linux.
Speedcast serves more than 3,200 customers across over 140 countries, including maritime, energy, mining, media, telecom, cruise, NGO, and government sectors.
