Roger Wells Named Mercury Microelectronics Business President; Mark Aslett Quoted

Roger Wells, formerly a vice president at Teledyne FLIR, has been appointed president of Mercury Systems‘ (Nasdaq: MRCY) microelectronics division.

The 25-year aerospace and defense industry veteran will also join Mercury’s EVP ranks and his professional background encompasses business development, engineering and program management, the company said Monday.

Mark Aslett, president and CEO of Mercury and a 2021 Wash100 Award recipient, said Wells brings technical and profit and loss management experience as the company aims to grow its microelectronics business.
