Rancher Government announced on June 20 the addition of Air Force and government IT veteran Jason Motte as strategic account manager, federal mission support. Motte brings a wealth of experience from a distinguished 22-year career in the U.S. Air Force, where he led major cyber operations and strategic initiatives. His appointment underscores Rancher Government’s commitment to enhancing U.S. military cyber capabilities through advanced Kubernetes and cloud-native technologies.
In his new role, Motte will leverage his deep expertise to help clients embrace digital transformation confidently and securely. By leveraging Rancher Government’s advanced Kubernetes management platform, defense agencies can deploy secure, scalable, resilient, and interoperable applications across any platform from the data center, to any cloud service provider and out to the tactical edge. Most recently, Motte served as the U.S. Air Force and U.S. Space Force team director at Elastic.
Tricia Fitzmaurice, vice president of sales at Rancher Government, emphasized the strategic importance of Motte’s role, “Jason’s arrival is pivotal as we expand our efforts to support the government’s continued digital evolution. His understanding of the nuanced needs of federal cyber operations will be key in delivering solutions that not only secure but also enhance operational capabilities to ensure mission success.”
Motte joins Rancher Government during a period of significant growth for the company as government customers are increasingly looking to Rancher to help them modernize their legacy IT infrastructures to break free from expensive, proprietary vertical stacks that limit innovation and transition to more modern, interoperable, open source, container and Kubernetes technologies.
“I am thrilled to join Rancher Government and help further our mission to transform government IT infrastructures,” said Motte. “Our focus on secure, open source, container-based applications orchestrated with Kubernetes offers an unprecedented opportunity to advance the government’s digital capabilities, ensuring they are agile, secure, and ready to meet tomorrow’s challenges today.”
