- Veterans Day: Steven St. John | SafranFederalSystems
Veterans Day: Steven St. John What branch of the military did you serve in, and for how long? I served 22 years in the Air Force and Space Force, started as an enlisted member, and finished as a Major. What were your duties? I was a Satellite Operator, an Electronic Warfare Operator, a GNSS and SATCOM Aggressor, a Nuclear ICBM Officer, an Intelligence Analyst, and various held leadership positions. What inspired you to join the military? I wanted to serve my country and be part of missions that mattered. The chance to work worth amazing people and at the cutting edge of space, intelligence, and electronic warfare kept me motivated to stay. What does Veterans Day mean to you personally? It’s a day to honor the people I served with and the sacrifices they made. For me, it’s also about carrying forward the lessons of teamwork and resilience. What drew you to Safran? I knew Safran’s products from my time as an Aggressor on the buying side, and I saw firsthand how they could close real gaps for operators. I wanted to help bridge the gap between technology and warfighters, especially in replicating realistic NAVWAR threats. What skills or values from your service do you apply in your role here? I bring real‑world experience as an EW operator in conflict, creating GNSS‑denied environments and training joint forces how to operate through the effects, and an in-depth understanding how threats apply to our systems. I served in the Special Operations community, which is part of our end-user customer base, and I was the go‑to person for troubleshooting SOF systems in GNSS‑denied environments. I also bring credibility and relationships in the operational community that help connect Safran’s technology to real user needs. In your opinion, what do Veterans bring to the workplace? Veterans bring perspective from operating in tough, high‑stakes environments. We know how to adapt quickly, work as a team, and keep the mission in focus. We also bring instant rapport with our end-users because we walked in their shoes. What’s a memorable experience from your time in service? Flying out to the USS Ronald Reagan at sea, getting hooked, living onboard for five days, training sailors on GNSS and SATCOM jamming before their deployment and being catapulted off the carrier afterward…I’ll never forget how amazing it was to see the “lightbulb” come on when they understood the threat and how to mitigate it. Also, briefing the Secretary of the Air Force in his office on how our TTPs held up against real threats and feeling the passion he had for the lowest level warfighters. What’s your proudest accomplishment — either in or out of uniform? Building the Digital Threat Portal. I saw a serious gap, had almost no resources, and still found a way to deliver a capability to thousands of warfighters in just months and at no cost to the government. We had a great team that rallied around each other and the mission to get it out the door. One of our “Safran Together” values is Succeeding Together. How do you embody this in your role? I focus on connecting technology with operators, making sure their voices shape what we deliver so they come home safe. Success is never about one person, it’s about making the whole team, and ultimately the warfighter, stronger. Feeling inspired? Explore career opportunities at Safran Federal Systems CAREERS
- A Day in the Life of an IT Network Technician | SafranFederalSystems
A Day in the Life of an IT Network Technician From intern to IT Network Technician, Sudeep is one of the many successful stories here at Safran Federal Systems. His day-to-day is almost never the same and each day presents itself with a different set of challenges. Let us take a dive into his journey and see how he is making an impact from the moment he steps into the office. When beginning your career, being an intern allows you to gain real-world experience and develop the necessary skills when taking on a full-time position. You challenge yourself and discover new ways to problem solve, as well as meet new people who will help guide you along the way. Sudeep has been with the company for three and a half years, two of those as an intern. From the start of his internship, Sudeep worked on assignments he would later be proficient in. “I learned a lot when I was an intern, and my manager taught me all. I am still learning a lot from my team members and my manager.” Due to his learning mindset, consistency, and effectiveness in the office, Sudeep accepted a full-time position with us. Being handed all the tools he needed to succeed in his role, transitioning from intern to IT Network Technician felt like a smooth shift. “I had lots of new responsibilities [when being an intern] and then added a lot of tasks to my job after the internship…I support all my end users on a daily basis and users usually put in the tickets and we reach out to them to get the tickets resolved and anyone having issues with the internet or computer we get them resolved. We support any new users coming in and offboarding when leaving.” Sudeep is passionate about his job and helping team members. Dannielle, one of our staff members who acknowledged Sudeep’s support, had some amiable words to say about him, “He is very knowledgeable about certain things that I didn't know as a newcomer. He’s an all-around good guy— we have a lot of them around here. If I have a problem, I know I can send him a note at night, in a panic, and he’s going to answer me. He’s very good at his job. We’re very lucky to have Sudeep.” With various tasks at hand and running around to help resolve issues, Sudeep’s days are full of keeping things running smoothly and team members satisfied. With a grin, he happily expressed, “I love my job. I like coming in to work every day. I like the team members here and we have a great culture.” From starting as an intern to graduating and landing a job at a company he enjoys working at, we know Sudeep’s journey will be filled with success and much to look forward to.

- Women In Leadership: Suzanne Kwak | SafranFederalSystems
Women In Leadership: Suzanne Kwak As we celebrate Women’s Month, we take this opportunity to recognize the women who are paving the way for future generations— especially in fields where they have been underrepresented. In this special feature, we sit down with Suzanne Kwak, a leader who has navigated challenges, seized opportunities, and carved out a path of success for herself and many more women to come. She shares her defining moment in her journey, highlights women who have inspired her career and explores the opportunities available for women in this space today. Grab your coffee or beverage of choice and join us as we talk about ambition, resilience, and the power of women in leadership. Encouraging Women and Girls As we reflect on the significance of Women’s Month, it’s essential to consider how we can contribute to shaping the future. Encouraging more women and girls to explore STEM careers is crucial in ensuring the industry's continuous growth and diversity. Suzanne shares her thoughts on how we can all play a role in fostering an environment that encourages women and girls to pursue STEM careers. “From my perspective, I think that we have to encourage women to be curious. We have to encourage them to be comfortable with a healthy amount of competition. We also need to encourage women to be- and show grace to themselves. So, what do I mean by that, from a curiosity again, in particular, I'm in product development, so be curious about any problem that you're faced with. Just have a natural curiosity and a willingness to learn. I think that will take you incredibly far in your journey. The other piece is healthy competition, I'm a sports fan. I'm an advocate of having fun. And I noticed that women who can embrace competition have a tenacity, and they can get through things. So if you look at your male counterparts, right, they do a great job of having fun and heckling each other. Try that. It actually works to diffuse stress and build bonds, and it will help you in your career. And then lastly, show yourself some grace. I think too often women have a tendency to expect perfection from themselves and that's just not realistic. It's not realistic for us to expect it of ourselves or others. And so, I would encourage you to just show yourself a little grace. And if you don't know everything, be curious, ask questions, try your hardest and learn from it.” By nurturing curiosity, fostering healthy competition, and practicing self-compassion, we can create an environment where women feel empowered to pursue a career without the fear of limitations and know they are supported every step of the way. Leadership Is a Series of Lessons For Suzanne, leadership isn’t defined by one single event, but a series of moments that provide valuable lessons. A defining moment that helped her become the leader she is today is that leadership is a continuous journey— one that requires being open to learning and growing. “I reflected on this question, and quite honestly, my perspective is that leadership is a series of lessons and that you really need to be open to those lessons and you need to pay attention. If you can show up every day with the spirit of improving and getting better and learning from whoever happens to be around you, that will make you a better leader. Your leadership is really an aggregation of all of those life lessons and applying them to the situation at hand.” This perspective is a game changer for Suzanne in how she approaches leadership and growth. By showing up with the intent to get better each day, you evolve into a confident and more effective leader. Women Who Inspire The women who inspire us often come from different corners of our lives, shaping our decisions and guiding us through successes and setbacks. Those who continue to influence and inspire her are her three daughters. “I'm going to answer that with the present. So I have three daughters, actually all in STEM fields. But really, my inspiration is raising them to be all they can be. So they push me to do all I can do. But they also help me be confident, help me show them what can be possible. So for me, it's about the next generation. There's a myriad of people that stood before me, and by no means were they not important. But really for me, it's the next generation, which happens to be my three daughters.” Their influence is a constant source of inspiration, fueling her to inspire and create opportunities for other women in the field. Opportunity Awaits In this rapidly evolving defense industry, the opportunities for women are growing and Suzanne believes women bring a lot of great abilities to the table. “The opportunity for women to contribute in product development in any kind of stem is about the uniqueness, I think, that women show up with. So it's been my observation that women are very good at assimilating information. They're very good at taking in a variety of inputs and then creating an action plan and making a decision. So what is unique for women is not about, you know, the specific position. It's not about the business needs, those don't change. It's how women show up and drive results. And I think they do it in a very, very proactive way. I think women tend to be decisive and they tend to be able to pull information and people together. So that's unique, right? I think that is the crux of leadership, how do you propel the business forward? How do you propel people forward? And I think women do that very well.” Their ability to bring people together, inspire collaboration, and lead with purpose makes women invaluable assets. As women continue to showcase these strengths, they will continue to unlock great opportunities for leadership and impact in the space. It’s clear that women are shaping the present and driving the future of industries like STEM and defense. Suzanne's insights remind us that leadership is a continuous learning journey and that by fostering an environment where women are encouraged to grow, we are building a future of inclusivity and innovation. Let’s continue to support, uplift, and celebrate the women who are shaping the world around us today and every day. Feeling inspired? Explore career opportunities at Safran Federal Systems CAREERS
- Women Rising: Strength, Mentorship, and Collective Success | SafranFederalSystems
Women Rising: Strength, Mentorship, and Collective Success Women’s Month is a time to celebrate the leaders who inspire, mentor, and break barriers in their industries. Today, we’re honored to speak with Joanne Downs, VP of Customer Success, about the challenges she’s overcome, advice on career success, and her vision for the future of women in leadership. Whether you’re an aspiring leader or an experienced professional, Joanne provides valuable insights into building meaningful customer relationships and thriving in a rapid industry. Strength In Numbers The role of women in customer success has evolved, and now, they are at the forefront of innovation, defining the future of customer experience strategies and driving results. “I've seen the role of women evolve a great deal in the areas of STEM and in leadership. I graduated from college as only 1 of 3 women in my engineering discipline and I actually started my first job as the only female in a group of 24, so I'm encouraged daily to see women in technical fields. The challenges for women don't go away, but it is encouraging to have more women to work through those challenges together.” As more women are stepping into leadership roles, advocating for change, and mentoring the next generation, we can continue to build a more inclusive and impactful future. Building Professional Connections Strong professional relationships are the foundation of success in any leadership role, especially in customer success. “Be genuine. Honesty and an open communication style goes a long way. Be accountable, work hard and let your work speak for itself. If you're ever feeling lost, seek a mentor and don't be afraid to ask for help.” Credibility is built through consistency, expertise, and confidence. Be sure to celebrate your achievements, advocate for yourself, and ask for guidance when needed. Overall, everyone is working towards the same goal—to drive business success—so your wins are a part of the collective success. Women in Leadership Roles Women bring a unique blend of building strong relationships, leading with empathy, and navigating complex problems, making them influential leaders. As someone who is constantly collaborating with others and in a leadership role, we asked Joanne what qualities she believes set women apart. “Good question. In general, I think empathy sets women apart as leaders. God gave women the innate ability to nurture teams and foster collaboration, and I think this does give women the opportunity to help people grow as a team.” By leveraging these qualities and continuing to drive results, women will not only shape the future of the industry but also empower the next generation of leaders. Believing In Your Abilities Many women struggle with imposter syndrome in leadership roles, which can be a significant hurdle, but it should never allow you to undermine what you bring to the table. Whether you are early in your career or in a leadership role, Joanne shares advice that can help you get ahead and remind you how far you’ve come! “My biggest piece of advice is just to trust yourself. Your capabilities have gotten you to where you are, so it's important to build upon your strengths and be mindful of your weaknesses, but don't let them make you question where you are. Learn from your mistakes and if you're ever really feeling strongly about imposter syndrome, ask yourself the question, if your male colleagues would ask themselves and feel the same way and 9 times out of 10, the answer is no.” To combat imposter syndrome, focus on what you have achieved and celebrate your continuous growth. Embracing new challenges as learning opportunities can reinforce confidence. Own your success and know that you are exactly where you are meant to be. Passing the Torch True impact comes from breaking barriers, fostering inclusivity, and ensuring that future generations of women in business have the resources to excel. “I hope to be a Beacon of light. I want to be an advocate for women who are having a hard time finding their way in a male-dominated industry. I want to be seen as a mentor, but I also want to help encourage those people to become mentors themselves for the next generation.” Feeling inspired?

- Succeeding Together: Q&A With VP of Human Resources | SafranFederalSystems
Succeeding Together: Q&A With VP of Human Resources As we celebrate Women’s Month, we take this opportunity to recognize the women who are paving the way for future generations— especially in fields where they have been underrepresented. In this special feature, we sit down with Holly Cicconi-Eggleston, Vice President of Human Resources, where she shares valuable advice on advocating for yourself in the workplace, how we can help cultivate the next generation of women, and what Women's Month means to her. Get ready to grab a pen and paper because this Q&A will leave you with great advice and a different perspective you don't want to miss out on! Women often juggle many responsibilities, both in the workplace and personally. What can companies do to better support women in their work-life balance? "I am not a parent, but I have many friends who are parents or single parents. I cannot imagine the challenges they face every day or the difficult decisions that must be made in balancing family and work. While not every woman is a parent, women who choose to be a parent do have additional responsibilities just strictly because of biology. I read a post on LinkedIn several years back that resonated with me. I cannot recall the author’s name, but the topic stuck. While we strive for work-life balance, and as companies try to offer work-life balance, it is still a challenge for many. The author talked about work-life integration instead of work-life balance. In this regard, it identified that all our needs are different. Parents may need to leave early to get kids off the bus or to take the kids to soccer practice. An employee who doesn’t have kids may have an exercise class that is only offered at noon. Another employee may want to take classes that are only offered in the morning. The point was that whether you are a parent or not, our lives and what we fill our days with vary, and the integration of work and personal is more meaningful than just working less hours within the week. While companies must comply with statutory requirements, I think that shifting the mindset to work-life integration will be beneficial to all employees, not just women." What advice would you give to women who are trying to advocate for themselves—whether it's for promotions, equal pay, or leadership roles? "First and foremost, do it! My experience has been that most women are less likely to do this. While there may be many reasons, it is important to advocate for yourself! While I say this, this is also something that I have had to work on throughout my career. Early in my career, I was hesitant at times for various reasons. I thought I’d be seen as aggressive, ungrateful, impatient – all things that I perceived but were not the reality. As I grew in my career and having experiences that helped to shape who I am, I realized that the only person who can control my destiny is … me. While it certainly helps to have managers to support you in your career, you have to put yourself out there and be your loudest cheerleader. Stay true to yourself, always. If you remain authentic, you will not have regrets." What qualities do you believe will define the next generation of women leaders, and how can we help cultivate them? "This is a great question. I’m not sure that there will be different qualities in the next generation, but I do think that each generation is more courageous . When I look back at what was considered the “norm” when I was in high school versus what I see in today’s youth, I see more openness, acceptance, and perhaps advocacy. It is refreshing to see the growth in each generation and my hope is that this continues in a positive direction. We are still experiencing “first’s” which conveys that while progress has been made, there is still work to do. For the next generation of women leaders, we need to collectively support the advancement of women in fields that have been predominantly held by men. We need to nurture girls at an early age who express interest in STEM, as an example. We need to normalize that different styles of leadership and perspective are not only ok, but encouraged. Ultimately, it doesn’t matter what we want to do, the important consideration is to ensure we have mentors to help guide us in the path forward." What does National Women’s Month mean to you, and how do you hope it continues to evolve in the corporate world? "National Women’s Month is a time to reflect on the past, understand where we are today, and see the road ahead of what still needs to be. My personal belief is that each of us needs to have mentors, and then, when in a position to do so, mentor others. I am fortunate to have had many great mentors in my career – both women and men and have worked diligently to make sure that I give back whenever I can. This helps us to succeed together. In corporate settings, it’s important to highlight accomplishments of the women who came before us – without them, we may not have succeeded. It’s also important to ensure that company practices are inclusive and evolve as the needs of the workforce evolve." Feeling inspired? Explore career opportunities at Safran Federal Systems CAREERS
- Breaking Barriers: Women In Science | SafranFederalSystems
Breaking Barriers: Women In Science Defense technology demands precision, reliability, and innovation—and women at Safran Federal Systems are at the forefront of making it happen. On National Women and Girls in Science Day, we are highlighting Lindsay Fitzgerald, a Senior Quality Engineer, whose expertise ensures that every system meets the highest standards of quality and reliability. Her journey in STEM is one of determination, problem-solving, and breaking barriers. Today, she shares what inspired her path, the impact of her role, and advice for the next generation of women in science. A Love For Science and Learning From an early age, Lindsay was drawn to the mechanics of how things worked. Whether she was solving complex problems or devising innovative solutions, she was captivated by the STEM world. “I am inspired by science, my love for learning sciences, and endless world of learning, and I love solving complex problems and being innovative. And my science career took off when I was a young girl.” This fascination led her to pursue a career in the STEM field, ultimately leading her to work in the defense industry, where she plays a crucial role. Ensuring Excellence Every system, product, and process she oversees must meet rigorous industry and government standards, leaving no room for error. Her work involves collaborating with different teams to ensure that the technology is both effective and secure. “I'm a quality engineer here and quality is a super critical role in making sure that our processes are sustainable and reliable, so that we're producing quality products that meet customer requirements and industry requirements. So in the defense industry, our end users our military operations, so it's super critical. That they receive products they can trust just given the high-stakes nature of the business.” Her role is not just about enforcing standards but ensuring that every component meets the demands of the end-users and industry. From Aspiration to Leadership Every career has a key moment that defines and strengthens an individual’s path. After years of hard work, persistence, and breaking barriers, Lindsay achieved her goal of becoming a leader in the quality industry. “A defining moment I would say is becoming a leader in the quality industry not only have I been able to achieve my career goals as a woman in science, I'm helping others do the same. So being a leader in the role has really helped shape who I am today.” Her journey is proof that persistence and self-confidence can break down barriers, opening more doors for women to rise in the science and engineering fields. With the position she has reached, she knows she can drive meaningful change as a woman in science. Owning Your Space The path into STEM isn’t always easy. There will be challenges along the way, but the future depends on diverse perspectives—on people who think creatively, solve problems uniquely, and bring new ideas to the table. Here is some advice for women considering a career in STEM: “Advice to other women, I would say set goals, start small but dream big. Don't let anyone tell you that you can't achieve them and never be afraid to speak your mind and if STEM is a field that you're passionate about, then go for it. The world is yours.” Empowering Women in Science Lindsay’s story serves as both inspiration and a call to action for those interested in the field. For those considering a path in STEM, the opportunities to make a difference are limitless. The next breakthrough, the next advancement, the next leader in defense technology could be you.
