Kevin Bentley is a founder and principal engineering leader with 20+ years of hands-on experience building high-reliability systems across defense, robotics, embedded platforms, geospatial intelligence, and secure AI. He has scaled and led distributed engineering organizations, directed multi‑million dollar government programs, and remains deeply technical in C/C++, Python, ROS2/PX4, embedded firmware and cloud/distributed architectures. Kevin has a track record of taking products from concept through fielded prototypes—most recently architecting autonomous agricultural and livestock-monitoring platforms—and of blending product strategy with rigorous technical due diligence. He also co‑founded an enterprise AI startup focused on privacy-preserving, on‑prem retrieval-augmented generation, demonstrating both security-forward design and customer-driven product validation. Based in Boise, he pairs principal-level architecture leadership with day-to-day engineering craft, and brings a rare mix of defense program delivery discipline and startup agility.
