Daversa Welcomes Brian Warager to Firm’s Partnership.
A native New Yorker, Brian brings East Coast determination and more than a decade of experience in executive search. He began his career in Daversa’s B2B software practice before expanding into mission-critical sectors including defense technology, advanced manufacturing, energy, and industrial automation.
Brian has become one of the industry’s go-to builders of leadership teams in sectors where innovation directly impacts national security, resilient infrastructure, and climate sustainability. He has partnered with category-defining innovators such as Shield AI, Firestorm, Mach Industries, Hadrian, OsmoAi, and Overland AI - companies shaping the future of defense, manufacturing, and frontier tech. His work also extends into energy transformation, collaborating with Fuse Energy, Terradot, and AiDash to accelerate the shift toward sustainable and adaptive infrastructure.
“Brian’s work is redefining what it means to recruit for the frontier,” said Paul Daversa, CEO of Daversa. “He has an exceptional ability to identify leaders who thrive where technology meets mission - whether that’s securing our national defense, advancing the future of manufacturing, or driving climate transformation. His counsel to founders and investors has made him an invaluable partner in building the companies that are shaping the future.”
Brian’s promotion underscores Daversa’s commitment to growing leaders who drive innovation and impact across industries.
