Herndon-based MHVC Acquisition Corp., formerly Harris Corp.’s government IT services business, said Tuesday it has named a new chief financial officer.

The company has tapped John C. Pitsenberger for the role, who most recently served as the executive vice president and CFO at Herndon-based Sotera Defense Solutions, a national security technology company that was acquired by Hanover, Md.-based KeyW Holding Corp. earlier this year. He joins MHVC as the company is preparing to launch its new brand. 

Pitsenberger’s work experience includes serving as vice president and corporate controller of Pacific Architects and Engineers (PAE) and Apptis. He also worked at Deltek, taking the company through an initial public offering.

Pitsenberger began his career in public accounting at Beers & Cutler PLLC (now Baker Tilly). He is a CPA with a bachelor’s degree in accounting from the University of Maryland, College Park.
