Sean Stackley, formerly corporate vice president for strategic advanced programs and technology at L3 Technologies (NYSE: LLL), has been named corporate senior VP and president of the company™s newly created communications and networked systems segment.
He succeeds Andrew Ivers, a 13-year L3 veteran who is set to retire by the end of 2018, and will oversee the new segment that combines the company™s maritime businesses with its communications systems division, L3 said Monday.
Christopher Kubasik, L3 chairman, president and CEO, said Stackley™s engineering experience, policy knowledge and client focus would help accelerate the delivery of mission-focused and agile platforms to clients as the company realigns its business portfolio in support of the U.S. Navy™s distributed maritime operations.
Stackley joined L3 in January from the Navy, where he served as acting secretary and assistant secretary for research, development and acquisition for nine years.
His 40-year public service career included time as a staff member at the Senate Armed Services Committee and surface warfare officer with involvement in the Navy™s ship design, program management and construction.
