Maxar Technologies’ intelligence business has named Lisa Henke, a veteran technology executive, as chief of technology and innovation for the U.S. government.
Henke announced her promotion at Maxar Intelligence in a LinkedIn post published Thursday.
She most recently served as USG account executive for Army and Space Force programs, according to her LinkedIn profile.
Henke is a U.S. Air Force veteran who joined Maxar in 2016 as chief architect for open technologies.
Prior to Maxar, she was the chief architect for the Integrated System Program Office within the National Reconnaissance Office’s Ground Enterprise Directorate, where she led cloud transformation, ground development and Agile transformation efforts.
Her industry career included systems engineering roles at Vencore, Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT) and Northrop Grumman (NYSE: NOC).
Maxar Intelligence is one of the two separate businesses formed through a reorganization that the parent company announced in September following its acquisition by private equity firm Advent International in May 2023.
