🔹 Who We Are
Paladin Solutions Group was founded by SFC (R) Scott “Tank” Pillath, a highly decorated U.S. Army veteran and senior federal executive with over 36 years of public service. Inspired by the honor-driven knight from the classic TV series Have Gun – Will Travel, the company was built on a commitment to justice, ethics, and tactical excellence.
Scott has served in executive positions at CBP, NOAA, NIH, USDA, and DOD — managing billion-dollar programs and delivering results in logistics, IT modernization, cybersecurity, and strategic planning. He is now completing his Doctor of Public Administration (DPA) with a perfect 4.0 GPA, with the vision of transforming government operations through academic rigor and practical leadership.
