Science Applications International Corp. brings in Jon Rucker as the new leader of its Army business.

Science Applications International Corp. has hired Jon Rucker to lead the company’s Army business unit as senior vice president. He will be responsible for strategy, business development, and program delivery.

SAIC’s Army business generates about $1.2 billion in annual revenue, the company said Thursday. Rucker will report to Bob Genter, president of SAIC’s defense and civilian sector.

Rucker most recently held the position of senior vice president of the command, control, communications, and intelligence group at CACI International. Prior to joining CACI, he spent 20 years in various technical, program management and executive leadership positions at Lockheed Martin.

“Jon is an industry veteran whose experience, customer relationships and knowledge of C3I technology programs will advance SAIC’s success with our Army customers,” Genter said.
