True Anomaly Leadership & Management

True Anomaly knows exactly what it aims to be: a leading defense technology company and a disruptor in the space. The company's leadership is intentional about staffing, prioritization, and decision-making to support that goal.

Strategic direction is reinforced through strong, hands-on technical leadership. 

• True Anomaly's COO, Sarah Walter, is deeply embedded with engineering and technical teams, working directly with technicians to build spacecraft, solve problems, share expertise, and model a builder-first mindset. She ensures that high-level strategy is grounded in real technical execution and that teams stay aligned with both near-term delivery and long-term product vision.
• The company has also strengthened its senior engineering bench with leaders from top aerospace, defense, and technology organizations, bringing proven experience from companies such as SpaceX, Blue Origin, Rolls-Royce, Microsoft, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon, and the U.S. Space Force. This deep bench of experience accelerates product development, raises execution standards, and helps translate ambitious strategy into scalable systems and processes.
• On the commercial side, the introduction of a dedicated Chief Growth Officer, Rob Aalseth, role has sharpened focus on product-market fit and GTM strategy. 

Across the company, leaders prioritize clear, proactive communication. Company-level OKRs, strategic priorities, growth opportunities, and known gaps are shared openly, giving teams visibility into both where the company is headed and how their work contributes to solutions and growth.

Most importantly, True Anomaly’s CEO and executive leadership team are visible, approachable, and highly collaborative. Employees are encouraged and given ample opportunities to engage directly with leadership, share ideas, and challenge assumptions. This accessibility, combined with mission clarity and disciplined execution, creates a strong sense of direction, trust, and shared ownership across the company.
