Founded by a U.S. Army veteran, Zapata Technology was built on the principle that those who served deserve a meaningful career that continues their mission of protecting our nation.
From Service to Solutions
Veterans make up the majority of our workforce, and that’s by design. We understand that military experience provides unmatched discipline, leadership, and technical proficiency. At Zapata Technology, prior service members don’t just have jobs — they continue to directly support the warfighter by delivering AI, cybersecurity, and intelligence solutions to the units they once served alongside.
As a VA Verified Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB) with a Top Secret/SCI facility clearance, we specialize in the kind of classified, mission-critical work that leverages military experience and security clearances.

Supporting Transitioning Service Members
If you’re preparing to transition out of the military, we want to hear from you early. Our team understands the transition timeline and can work with your schedule. We actively participate in SkillBridge and similar programs to help service members gain civilian work experience before separating.
Whether you’re ETS’ing from Fort Eisenhower, retiring from USASOC at Fort Liberty, or transitioning from any installation worldwide, we have opportunities for cleared professionals in AI/ML, cybersecurity, data engineering, and software development.
“This is the best company I have worked for in nearly 20 years of DoW contracting. As a small company, I definitely do not feel like I’m ‘just a number’ as I have felt in larger organizations.”
