Senior🎓
Top SchoolDaniel Hope is an AI Solution Manager and former Air Force development engineer with 12 years of experience translating complex technical requirements into operational AI and systems solutions for federal customers. He blends hands-on program and portfolio management—shaping RFPs, agile software delivery, and data-driven dashboards—with venture-facing work in startup sourcing, due diligence, and early-stage investing. Comfortable moving between the Pentagon and the boardroom, he’s supported AFOSR portfolio analytics, led large multi-organizational procurements, and evaluated SBIR/STTR proposals for AFVentures. An MBA from Yale and an aeronautical engineering background underpin his ability to bridge technical, strategic, and commercial perspectives, and he brings an uncommon mix of language training (Japanese) and Lean Six Sigma process improvement to cross-cultural and process optimization challenges.
