Prior to joining Transact, he previously served as vice president of global product delivery at Cubic Transportation Systems, an engineering manager at Lockheed Martin, and a software engineer for the Central Intelligence Agency.

In his new role at Transact, Behrooznia will expand his focus on growing Transact’s campus ID solutions business and partnerships, and on delivering the company’s solutions to clients.
