He will step into this role after serving as Chief Operating Officer since 2019.

As President, Rainhart will guide the company through the rapidly growing market of RF data and analytics.

Rainhart has been a critical part of HawkEye 360's senior team for the past 7+ years, first joining HawkEye 360 as Vice President of Engineering just a few months after the company was founded. Prior to joining HawkEye 360, Rainhart held various engineering and technical leadership roles with RT Logic and Harris Corporation.

There is no one who so well represents our corporate values."

Rainhart holds a Master of Science degree in Systems Engineering from Penn State University and a Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering from Colorado State University.
