Rune Technologies

Building technology for warfighters starts with supporting the warfighters on your team. Our co-founder and CTO, Peter Goldsborough, has been recognized with the ESGR Patriot Award: an honor given to business leaders who go above and beyond to support employees serving in the National Guard and Reserve. The award reflects unwavering support: flexible schedules, time around deployments, and a workplace that understands the operational demands placed on service members and their families. As Peter puts it: "My journey from Facebook to Anduril, and now co-founding Rune, has been guided by a belief in the American dream, gratitude for the opportunity to participate in it, and a strong desire to preserve the values and freedoms that enable it." Congratulations, Peter. And thank you to the Guard and Reserve members who continue to carry the weight of service.

Rune was founded to defend America and her allies. At the Munich Security Conference, our co-founder and CTO Peter Goldsborough joined leaders discussing the future of European security. The word on everyone's mind: deterrence. But deterrence isn't just about having the latest and greatest fighting platforms; it's about a demonstrated commitment to logistics. You can’t project force without projecting logistics. And in today's security environment, logistics can't be linear, static, or slow. The era of the predictable supply chain is over. What's required now is a dynamic, AI-powered supply web that adapts in real time across air, land, sea, cyber, and space. U.S. industry and European forward forces cannot operate as disconnected systems. Transatlantic supply chains and C2 architectures must be interoperable by design. Joint partners must see, plan, and sustain together. Speed of sustainment = speed of deterrence. That's why we built TyrOS.

2016: Kyle Haire was serving as the Operations Officer of a Marine Corps F/A-18 squadron operating with just two mission-capable aircraft and forty aviators. The benchmark for pilot proficiency was 8.6 tactical training hours per pilot each month. The squadron could not reach it. Not because the pilots lacked skill or discipline, but because the system surrounding the aircraft was breaking down. Maintenance constraints, operational tempo demands, weather windows, airspace access, crew availability, and aircraft performance cycles collided daily. Supply constraints were a part, but only one layer inside a much larger operational equation. Leaders could not get clear answers to basic readiness questions fast enough. - Which aircraft would be up tomorrow? - Which would break? - What maintenance actions would cascade into lost sorties? - How would training plans be impacted weeks out? The result was degraded readiness and rising risk. Pilots struggled to maintain proficiency as flying hours became constrained and unpredictability was the norm. Kyle is a TOPGUN graduate. But tactical excellence means little when the system behind the aircraft is failing. Fast forward: eight years inside the Joint Special Operations Command and a few years in the defense technology sector, where he helped build and qualify a pipeline exceeding $100M at Anduril. Now serving as Head of Growth at Rune, he brings a firsthand understanding of what happens when logistics, maintenance, and operational readiness break down, and how to scale solutions that prevent it. This team is not built from sideline advisors. It is built by operators who have lived the problem, understand the stakes, and know how to fix it at scale. That is the standard. And the team is being built to match it. We’re hiring. Link in comments. 

“You know what’s better than being on one prototyping team for the Army’s big modernization mega-project? Being on all of ’em.” Couldn't have said it better ourselves. Tectonic covered Rune joining Anduril Industries' NGC2 prototype team, making us the only company on both of the Army's Next Generation Command and Control prototype efforts. The pace is what stands out. Monthly exercises across both teams. Lightning Surge in Hawaii one week, Ivy Sting in Colorado the next. We test, iterate, deploy, and repeat. As our co-founder and CEO David Tuttle put it: “The 4th ID has set up a very quick, iterative pace, which we’re all in on. We love that. That’s core to our DNA as a company. Rapid cycle is how we’re going to actually build great capabilities.” Link to the full piece in the comments.

We’ve joined Anduril Industries' $99.6 million Next-Generation Command and Control (NGC2) prototype effort with the US Army's 4th Infantry Division. Our mission: make sure commanders have accurate logistics data when communications are jammed, networks are down, and adversaries are actively targeting supply lines. Exactly the conditions we'll face against near-peer adversaries. NGC2 integrates previously siloed warfighting systems into a unified technology stack. Rune's TyrOS handles the logistics layer, providing: - Predictive supply forecasting - Real-time decision support powered by AI - Sensor data collection from the edge - Automated medical evacuation recommendations - Operations in offline/intermittent connectivity We're now part of a broader industry team which includes multiple technology providers supporting different aspects of the NGC2 architecture. This is what contested logistics looks like in 2026. We're ready. Read the full announcement via the release at the link in comments.

The U.S. military is being asked to operate faster, farther, and under more contested conditions than ever before. That reality demands tools that can keep up. A new op-ed in RealClearDefense from Frontline Strategies CEO John Pence argues that artificial intelligence can’t live in pilot programs. It has to function as a real warfighting capability. That's exactly the problem Rune was built to solve. Logistics decisions including what's available, where it is, when it can move, shape readiness every day. When that picture is fragmented or slow, commanders lose options. When it's powered by TyrOS, AI built for contested environments, they gain speed, clarity, and the ability to act before adversaries can react. The full piece is worth the read.

Building technology for contested logistics requires a different kind of team. Today, we're bringing in someone who knows how to build it. Tahsin Alam is joining Rune as Head of Talent. Tahsin spent 20+ years scaling organizations and building teams in large multi-site organizations: executive recruiting, operations, fundraising leadership. Now, he's applying that experience to finding people who've either lived the logistics problem or can build the tech to solve it. We hire from everywhere: former military transitioning to tech, engineers leaving FAANG companies for mission driven work, defense industry veterans ready to move faster. What matters isn't where you're from; it's whether you choose mission over comfort. That takes someone who gets what we're building. Tahsin gets it. We're scaling across Army and Marine Corps units, with more coming. We need the team to match the momentum. Welcome to Rune, Tahsin. 💥

Welcome to the team, Tahsin Alam! As Head of Talent, he’ll scale the teams behind Rune’s edge-first, AI-enabled logistics platform, recruiting engineers and operators to support warfighters in contested environments.

At Apex Defense, Rune Technologies CTO Peter Goldsborough joined leaders from the U.S. military and defense technology industry to talk about what it takes to sustain forces across contested and dispersed environments. On the topic of contested logistics, Peter unpacked a key gap: most battle management tools focus on short-term objectives without accounting for the real world challenges of keeping troops, supplies, and equipment operational. The takeaway was clear: sustainment can’t be an afterthought. That’s why Rune is part of the Army’s NGC2 program: building logistics into the system from day one.

2025 was about proving TyrOS in real-world military operations. 2026 is about scaling impact. If you want to be part of building the future of military logistics, you’ve found it. Rune Technologies is entering the new year with serious momentum:  ✅ NGC2 contract with Lockheed Martin and the US Army ✅ Integration partnership with Palantir Technologies ✅ Field-proven technology with operational units  ✅ Backing from IQT, Andreessen Horowitz, Point72 Ventures, and XYZ Venture Capital ✅ Army leadership endorsement That’s just the beginning. We’re looking for engineers and more. Interested? Let's talk. Open positions at the link in comments. Here's to 2026. 🚀
