INFO:

I'm Charlie Hulcher, a startup founder, engineer, and advisor who turns prototypes into platforms.

At Bird I led one of three engineering teams during its hyper-growth phase. At OpenSea I matured the NFT marketplace so it stayed smooth during the peak of the NFT boom. And at Subspace I built a real-time graph routing network that made Fortnite playable for millions across MENA.

As a startup advisor I recently restructured a tech organization serving millions of users but struggling to get to the next level. We refreshed talent, processes, and infrastructure, eliminating outages while revenue grew >50%.

Today, as founding engineer at Kindo, I stay hands-on crafting the AI layer for secure DevSecOps while researching how generative AI is reshaping the software-development lifecycle.
