👋 Hi! I’m Austin Lyons. Futurence is where I explore the tech, strategy, and policy shaping the future of deterrence.
I’ve built my career at the intersection of tech innovation and strategy. During my undergraduate years, I worked on software-defined radios for the U.S. military via Rockwell Collins. Following my BSEE from Iowa State, I pursued an MSEE at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, where I published nanoelectronics research and co-founded a startup. I later added an MBA from the University of Iowa.
Today, I’m a product manager at a Silicon Valley company driving John Deere’s shift to autonomous farming. I also write about the semiconductor industry at Chipstrat.
