About Jeh Aerospace

Jeh Aerospace is an aerospace and defense manufacturing startup founded in 2022 by Vishal R Sanghavi and Venkatesh Mudragalla, both veterans of Tata Group's aerospace ventures. Sanghavi previously served as the Chief Operating Officer at Tata Boeing Aerospace, while Mudragalla led program management and operations at Tata Sikorsky Aerospace. The company is headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, with its primary manufacturing operations located in a scalable 160,000-square-foot facility in Hyderabad, India.

The firm operates on a B2B model, providing manufacturing, engineering, and supply chain solutions to the global aerospace industry. It specializes in producing high-precision, flight-critical components, including metallic parts for aero-engines and aerostructures. The business model is designed to address global aerospace supply chain constraints by leveraging India's manufacturing capabilities and talent pool for clients primarily in the United States and Western Europe. This "friend-shoring" strategy combines access to the U.S. market with India's production strengths. Jeh Aerospace focuses on serving Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers rather than directly targeting original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) like Boeing and Airbus, allowing for deeper customer relationships.

Jeh Aerospace employs a software-defined manufacturing approach, utilizing automation, AI, robotics, and IoT to enhance production efficiency, ensure quality, and reduce lead times. The company has entered into long-term manufacturing agreements, including a notable partnership with U.S.-based G.S. Precision to produce components for commercial aero-engines. Since its inception, the company has delivered over 100,000 components and has secured contracts valued at over $100 million. To support its growth, Jeh Aerospace has raised significant capital, including a $2.75 million seed round in 2024 and an $11 million Series A round in August 2025, led by Elevation Capital with participation from General Catalyst and IndiGo Ventures.
