About Kalliope Hulse

I\'m a hands-on, solutions-driven Project & Operations Leader with over a decade of experience scaling advanced manufacturing programs in aerospace, consumer electronics, and drone technology. From transforming Startup\'s empty warehouses into full-scale production lines - to launching repairability strategies at Google, I thrive at the intersection of hardware, operations, and cross-functional execution. I bring a get-it-done mindset, deep experience in Lean/5S environments, and a talent for translating ambiguous goals into clear execution plans. Whether launching a new product line or revamping supply chain processes, I’m passionate about building strong teams and sustainable systems that scale. Let’s connect if you’re working on hardware that needs to move from prototype to production — or if you just love talking shop about aerospace, drones, or manufacturing challenges!
