About David C. Hackler

I spent 15+ years closing complex deals,$100B+ in technically focused transactions, capital raises, federal partnerships, and cross-border negotiations. Now I\'m applying that experience where it matters most: getting AI into defense and critical infrastructure. I founded Prescient One to address a problem that costs data centers and defense operators millions annually: unexpected hardware failure. Our platform predicts drive and GPU failures 24 hours to 30 days before they happen using pure onboard telemetry, no external dependencies, no internet required, fully air-gap capable for federal deployment. Built and validated across 115 million real-world records spanning four quarters. Holdout accuracy on data the model never trained on: 93.63% at 24h, 91.13% at 14 days, 86.27% at 30 days. CAGE: 1W8G3 | SAM.gov registered | Active in federal procurement. If you\'re running infrastructure at scale, data center, defense, or federal — let\'s talk. d••••@prescientone.ai | prescientone.ai |@PrescientOneAI

   Jan 2016 — Present · Oklahoma City, OK, US

   As a Managing Director of Acquisition and Divestitures, I direct the development and deployment of acquisition strategies, joint ventures, partnerships, and divestitures across all phases of the supply chain. By overseeing all phases of transaction sourcing, due diligence, contract negotiations, and the closing process, I generated technically focused transactions of $100B across the energy sector. Moreover, I executed the company’s acquisition and divestiture program to strategically optimize and upgrade the portfolio and foster in-house and strategic partnerships. By outperforming traditional brokers and improving control of target areas by 66%, I yielded millions of dollars in cost-saving.
