Silver Line Systems Group

 

There's a Reason We're Called Silver Line.

Our name is written into the landscape of one of the most dynamic technology corridors in the world.

About Silver Line Systems Group

In Northern Virginia, the Technology Corridor is Our Home.

In 2022, the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority completed one of the most ambitious infrastructure projects in the region’s history — the Silver Line Extension.

Six new Metro stations now connect the heart of Washington, D.C. to the communities of McLean, Tysons, Greensboro, Spring Hill, Wiehle-Reston East, Reston Town Center, Herndon, Innovation Center, Washington Dulles International Airport, Loudoun Gateway, and Ashburn — forming a continuous corridor of commerce, technology, and innovation unlike anywhere else in the country.

Along the Silver Line you’ll find the regional and global headquarters of some of the world’s most recognizable names in technology, defense, aerospace, and enterprise — from Google, Microsoft, and Facebook to the aerospace and defense giants anchoring the Innovation Center and Dulles corridor. 

And at the terminus — Ashburn, Virginia — sits one of the most strategically significant technology hubs on the planet: Data Center Alley, home to more than 250 data centers where an estimated two-thirds of the world’s internet traffic flows every single day.

Before the Silver Line Ran, Andy Was Already Here.

E-ZPass Transponder

The device in millions of windshields across the Washington DC region traces its origins to Andy Levy's first professional project — writing specifications and overseeing systems architecture for electronic toll collection on the Dulles Toll Road, straight out of MIT in 1989.

Commuter Tollways

The Dulles Toll Road corridor — now running alongside the Silver Line — was where Andy began building the technology infrastructure that connects this region. That work predates the Silver Line by more than three decades.

Tollway Logistics

What began as a civil engineering project became the foundation of a 35-year career delivering landmark technology for the most demanding organizations in the world.

Our connection to this region runs deeper than geography. Our founder, Andy Levy, was designing and developing technology infrastructure for this corridor long before the Silver Line trains ever ran. As a lead engineer on the development of the E-ZPass transponder system for the Dulles Toll Road — the very roadway that the Silver Line now runs alongside — Andy was already building the technology backbone that connects this region. He didn’t follow the corridor. He helped build it.

Silver Line Systems Group brings that same legacy of real-world infrastructure thinking to the technology challenges facing the organizations along this line — from fractional CTO services and IT architecture to AI application development and custom software solutions.

We are not consultants who flew in from somewhere else.
We are your neighbors. We know this corridor. We built part of it.

And we are here to help you build what comes next.

Meet Andrew Levy

Andy’s connection to this region isn’t recent. It began at the very start of his career with a stretch of road that every person knows by name.

Fresh out of MIT with a degree in civil engineering and transportation, Andrew Levy took his first professional role in Leesburg – contracted to the Virginia Department of Transportation to write specifications and oversee systems architecture for electronic toll collection of the Dulles Toll Road. That project became the foundation of what the region now knows as E-ZPass – the tolling infrastructure used by millions of commuters across the Washington Metro area every single day.

Founder and CEO

Silver Line Systems Group

Northern Virginia

That was 1989. The Silver Line didn’t exist yet. The data centers hadn’t arrived yet. The tech corridor that would eventually attract Google, Microsoft, and the global backbone of the internet was still years away.

But Andy was already here — building the technology that would help connect it all.

In the 35+ years since, Andy has built one of the most substantive and varied technology careers in the Washington DC–Baltimore region — spanning AI, federal systems, cybersecurity, bioscience, transportation, defense, and enterprise computing.

His career has taken him from DARPA and the Department of Homeland Security to RSA Security, Dell-EMC, and American Airlines. He has led teams of 35 or more, overseen project portfolios exceeding $1 billion in value, and delivered on 100% of assigned projects across his entire career.

He holds a BS in Civil Engineering from MIT and a Master of Engineering in Systems and Information Engineering from the University of Virginia. He is recognized in Marquis Who’s Who in America as a Fractional CTO, Technology Executive, Strategic Advisor, and AI Practitioner.

Today, as founder and CEO of Silver Line Systems Group, Andy brings every chapter of that experience to bear for the organizations that call the Silver Line corridor home.
