Summary
Paul Comitz is a senior systems engineer with decades of experience designing and leading aviation and distributed information systems across defense and aerospace primes, currently at Lockheed Martin after roles at Raytheon, MITRE, Boeing, and CACI. He has managed multi-organization teams and long-running archival and analytics programs (notably the CAASD Repository System) that fuse data processing, security, and visualization for FAA- and military-focused operations. An educator as well as an engineer, he has taught computer science and information systems at the University of Maryland and runs course materials and physics instruction online. Paul combines deep technical credentials (MS in CS from Johns Hopkins, PhD work in CS) with program-level leadership and hands-on systems architecture, including experience with network-enabled operations and UAS research. Outside of work he keeps a practical connection to everyday transportation—occasionally driving for ride-share services—and plays electric bass and mandolin, reflecting a blend of analytical rigor and creative interests.
