Emil Michael

I'm Emil, Under Secretary for Research and Engineering and CTO at the U.S. Department of War, where I lead applied AI and the tech priorities that shape how we fight and deter.

Before government I was Chief Business Officer at Uber through its hyperscale years, then ran DPCM Capital and advised companies across tech and security. I cut the department's critical tech list from fourteen priorities to six, with applied AI first.

Ask me about how Silicon Valley and the Pentagon can actually partner, and what I learned scaling Uber into hundreds of cities.
