Enterprise video analysis, biometrics, and government IT consulting
Tygart builds video/photographic analysis and biometric recognition systems for federal and state government, paired with full-cycle IT consulting (architecture, security, program management). The tech stack—AWS/Azure, Kubernetes, OpenShift, Kafka, C/C++/Java—reflects heavy infrastructure and security work; they're migrating off Elasticsearch while moving legacy mainframe workloads to AWS GovCloud, and security hiring (7 of 15 active roles) dominates their growth.
Tygart Technology provides enterprise-grade video analysis, biometric recognition, and IT consulting services to U.S. government agencies. Founded in 1992 and headquartered in Fairmont, West Virginia, the company operates as a 11–50 person privately held firm. Beyond software products, they deliver program management, enterprise strategic planning, architecture design, software development, and system operations across the full lifecycle of government programs. Their customer base is exclusively U.S. federal and state government.
Tygart uses AWS, Azure, Kubernetes, OpenShift, C/C++, Java, C#, Python, Apache Kafka, GitLab, Splunk, and Power BI. They run workloads in AWS GovCloud for government compliance and are currently transitioning from Elasticsearch to other solutions.
Current projects include security assessment tool development, migrating legacy mainframe systems to AWS GovCloud, microservices architecture on OpenShift, and transitioning investigative search capabilities. They are also building new data storage frameworks and IT capabilities for government clients.
