In this role, Monahan will lead HawkEye 360’s U.S. government signals intelligence business, advancing the mission needs of the U.S. military and intelligence community through space-based RF data, signal processing, and analytics. He will manage execution across existing programs, strengthen customer relationships, and drive growth through new opportunities that enhance domain awareness, augment government intelligence capabilities, and support mission planning and operational decision-making.
“Growing our U.S. government business is a central part of HawkEye 360’s corporate growth strategy, and it requires dedicated leadership focused on the needs of government and intelligence community customers,” said Todd Probert, chief operating officer of HawkEye 360. “John brings the experience and customer understanding to strengthen program execution, deepen those relationships, and expand our role in supporting their missions.”

He previously served as Vice President of Space Protection Programs at Lockheed Martin, where he led a portfolio of satellite, sensor and ground system programs in support of national security. Prior to that, he held senior executive roles at Kratos and RT Logic overseeing satellite communications and ground systems businesses.
His industry career follows 20 years of service in the U.S. Air Force supporting defense, intelligence, and NASA missions, with leadership assignments across GPS, military satellite communications, and national space and ground systems. Monahan holds a bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering from Villanova University and an MBA from the University of Houston–Clear Lake.
“Government customers need capabilities they can put to work against their mission priorities, backed by consistent execution,” said Monahan. “My focus will be on listening closely to those customers, delivering on our commitments, and building new opportunities for HawkEye 360’s signals intelligence to support operational decisions.”
