Moseley Technical Services, Inc.

What Moseley Technical Services, Inc. does

Moseley Technical Services, Inc. is a privately held, founder-owned staffing and engineering services company headquartered in Huntsville, Alabama, incorporated in 1994 by Jerry Moseley. The firm provides contract staffing, direct hire, payroll services, project-based workforce management, and executive search, alongside on-demand engineering design services including tool design, 3D modeling, CAD, and Design, Development, Test & Evaluation (DDT&E). Its technical stack is anchored in established CAD platforms (Catia, Unigraphics, AutoCAD, Solidworks, Pro/E, Microstation) applied to aircraft hardware, ground support equipment, space flight hardware, and manufacturing tooling.

The company operates exclusively in the U.S. aerospace and defense sector, organizing its delivery around four verticals: Aviation (Boeing C-5/C-17/C-130/F-16, Apache), Space (NASA SLS/EGN/ISS, ULA Delta IV/Atlas V), Land Systems (US Army Abrams, Stryker, autonomous vehicles), and Naval Operations (NASSCO, NIWC Atlantic, Blue Fin Robotics). Customers are a mix of Tier-1 primes (Boeing, Lockheed Martin, ULA) and federal agencies/agencies-adjacent entities (NASA, US Army, NIWC Atlantic). The company is staffed at 251–500 employees and delivers nationwide across all 50 states from a single Huntsville office.

Revenue is generated almost entirely through professional services and managed services billings — load-staffed labor and project milestones — with quote-based, customized pricing and no public rate card. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales, supplemented by a dedicated careers portal, LinkedIn presence, and a structured referral program ($500 for engineering, $300 for light industrial). The firm holds no public debt or equity capital, has no subsidiaries, no disclosed M&A history, and no funding rounds, operating as an independent, founder-controlled business.
