About Us
Background
Marestella is a boutique services company specializing in DoD system modernization through the use of commercial cloud and the Kubernetes ecosystem. With more than 40 years of combined experience, our co-founders bring a proven record of success—especially when working together.
Marestella helps organizations turn modernization into lasting gains in performance, agility, profit, and sustainability. Our goal is to expand your decision space — not limit it — and help you build the culture of a world-class software organization. We’ve been there. We’ve done it.
Origin Story
Every superhero team has an origin story. Ours is simple. Whether building a software factory, modernizing a legacy combat system, developing cloud policy, or responding to cyber incidents — we’ve always done our best work together.
Driven by a shared passion for technology, a commitment to the Warfighter, and deep experience across multiple mission areas, we founded Marestella to do what we do best: support the DoD in solving its hardest problems.

"Mare" means sea in Latin
"Stella" means star in Latin
When we decided to start a company focused on modernization across the undersea and space domains, the name came naturally — Marestella.
It reflects where we come from and where we’re going: Defense Technology Solutions, From the Sea to the Stars.
