Castiglia will oversee all legal matters for DCS, provide strategic counsel to executive management and the board of directors, and lead the company’s ethics and corporate governance initiatives.
Castiglia brings more than two decades of legal and leadership experience in the defense and government contracting sectors. Prior to joining DCS, he served for 21 years as general counsel of the Global Defense Group at Cubic Corporation, a global defense contractor headquartered in San Diego, California. In that role, he advised senior leadership on complex legal, regulatory, and compliance matters across international operations.

His work supported government contractors of all sizes across the United States.
Castiglia began his legal career as an Honors Program Attorney at the Pentagon with the U.S. Department of the Air Force, Office of the General Counsel. During this time, he established and led the Air Force’s Procurement Fraud Remedies Program and served as lead counsel in 109 bid protests before the U.S. Government Accountability Office.
