Tanja Guerra Joins Alpha Omega as Chief Human Resources Officer

Alpha Omega announced today that Tanja Guerra has joined the executive team as Chief Human Resources Officer (CHRO).

Since its founding six years ago, Alpha Omega has grown to over $117 million in annual revenue. Winning $468 million in new contracts and increasing staff by 49% last year, Alpha Omega leadership is expanding to redefine roles and continue to focus on organizational maturity, customer relationships, quality, and talent management. Tanja was most recently the Parsons Corporation VP of Human Resources Defense & Intelligence Market. Her experience as a seasoned government contractor, talent, and culture strategist, change management leader, and full HR life cycle attracting, developing and retaining talent, makes her an ideal executive for Alpha Omega’s ongoing trajectory.

“I look forward to working with CEO Gautam Ijoor and his leadership team to build on an impressive HR foundation,” Tanja said. “These are exciting times for HR, with the focus on digital transformation, especially the opportunity to utilize AI. However, we must remember, that while technology can enable a growth culture; only authentic leadership can create a culture of belonging. How we facilitate change and inclusion will be key to maintaining the strong culture that Alpha Omega has built over the past six years. I am excited to be able to support the uniqueness of this company and infuse strategic planning and development for incremental growth and impactful leadership.”

I have been fortunate to have had significant career growth opportunities in my life, and Tanja will provide our teams with an enterprise-wide leadership and talent agenda, career development, upskilling, certifications, internships, partnerships, succession planning, and culture implementation.”

Prior to the Parsons Corporation, Tanja worked at SAIC as the VP, Human Resources for the Defense and Civilian Market as well as lead the Enterprise Talent and Leadership Development organization. Before that she was part of Engility Corporation through its acquisition to SAIC, and she began her career at CACI International as an intern.
