Mach Industries

Mach Industries has acquired Exquadrum Inc. — now operating as Mach Energetics. Appreciate the coverage from Heather Somerville and The Wall Street Journal on this step forward. We're combining our unmanned systems leadership with Exquadrum’s world-class solid rocket motors, pyrotechnics, and energetics expertise to deliver next-generation propulsion for American defense. Excited for what the Mach Energetics team will build. 🇺🇸 https://lnkd.in/gcjYJTsA

Thank you to Defense Appropriation Subcommittee Chairman Ken Calvert for visiting Mach Industries' Huntington Beach headquarters and spending time with our team to discuss the future of American defense manufacturing and the technologies shaping the next generation of deterrence. Congressman Calvert met with our leadership and engineering teams to see firsthand how Mach is advancing unmanned systems and scalable manufacturing capabilities built to support the evolving needs of the war fighter. We appreciate his time, engagement, and continued support for strengthening America’s defense industrial base.

We were honored to welcome U.S. Reprepresentative Jake Ellzey, Member of the House Defense Appropriations Subcommittee, to Mach Industries' Huntington Beach headquarters to see firsthand how our team is building next-generation unmanned systems and advanced defense manufacturing capabilities designed to strengthen deterrence. Congressman Ellzey spent time with our engineers and leadership team discussing the future of American defense manufacturing, the importance of resilient industrial capacity, and the need to move faster in delivering capability to the war fighter. We appreciate his engagement and continued support for strengthening the nation’s defense industrial base.

We're excited to welcome Anand Gopalan to Mach Industries as our Chief Autonomy and Systems Officer, where he will lead Autonomy, Avionics, GNC, and Advanced AI. Anand brings more than two decades of experience across the full hardware–software stack, with leadership roles at Velodyne Lidar, Vayu Robotics, and Rambus. His leadership will help accelerate the development of next-generation autonomous systems built for the most demanding operational environments. https://lnkd.in/g_9ctuJG Join Us: https://lnkd.in/gJHmkxVA

Mach Industries is excited to welcome Amanda S. to Mach Industries as Senior Vice President of Business Development. Amanda brings deep experience across defense, national security, and business development, with a strong track record of building growth organizations and delivering mission-critical solutions. Welcome to the team, Amanda! https://lnkd.in/gttNM7nT Join us: https://lnkd.in/gJHmkxVA

Mach Industries is pleased to welcome Rob Mark to the team. Rob will lead Forge, Mach’s component and contract manufacturing division, focused on building and scaling advanced manufacturing capabilities across the United States and allied nations in support of Mach and its strategic partners’ defense programs. Before joining Mach, Rob spent more than a decade at Apple in supply chain leadership roles, working across U.S. manufacturing, advanced hardware programs, and supply chain development within the Special Projects Group. There, he helped translate complex technologies into scalable, production-ready systems. Earlier in his career, Rob served as a U.S. Army officer across multiple operational commands, shaping his perspective on the importance of a strong and responsive industrial base to support those in the field. Rob’s experience aligns with the challenge Forge was created to solve: closing the gap between innovation and production. Forge was built on the conviction that scalable manufacturing is critical to the fielding of the next generation of defense systems. Resilient supply chains, production capacity, and industrial infrastructure are no longer supporting functions, but essential requirements for moving advanced systems from development deployment at scale. At Forge, Rob will build the manufacturing foundation required to deliver the next generation of defense systems, turning Mach’s products and emerging technologies into production-ready capabilities that can be reliably built, deployed, and sustained in the hands of the warfighter.

In aerospace, speed is life. Nothing accelerates iterative aerospace development like speed to data and analysis in flight test. Mach Industries is scaling next-generation platforms and munitions with rapid development, testing, and production. With Nominal, data from simulation, software in the loop, hardware in the loop, and flight test is unified for rapid analysis and full traceability. Engineers can quickly identify deficiencies and opportunities for accelerated iteration with a complete audit of system performance compared to models. The result is faster fly-fix-fly cycles that deliver capability at the pace of operational relevance. "Mach is building some of the most capable unmanned systems in the world, and they're building them fast. Nominal gives their engineers the data infrastructure to match that pace without cutting corners on rigor," said Cameron McCord, CEO and co-founder of Nominal.

Mach Industries is excited to welcome our new VP of Manufacturing, Tyler Pancake Prior to Mach, Tyler spent nearly a decade at @ SpaceX helping scale production across Dragon, Falcon, and Starship, supporting historic firsts in spaceflight before bringing that experience to the mission of securing the future here on Earth. Tyler’s career has been defined by building high-performance manufacturing organizations capable of delivering complex aerospace systems at speed, scale, and reliability—experience that will help Mach build the manufacturing foundation needed to deliver critical capabilities when they are needed most. He joins at a time when recent global conflicts have underscored the urgent need for resilient defense manufacturing and the ability to scale critical systems quickly. Tyler will lead the development of Mach’s production infrastructure, factory systems, and manufacturing teams across our 115,000 sq ft facility, ensuring we can reliably deliver advanced systems in service to the warfighter.

Three years ago, we were operating out of an MIT makerspace. Today, Mach Industries is building in San Francisco. The expansion brings us closer to a critical technology ecosystem and positions us for continued growth as demand from U.S. and allied defense partners increases. https://lnkd.in/ghCj5aYv

Mach Industries is honored to work alongside Dugway Proving Ground as we rapidly iterate capabilities — moving from early coordinate-based demonstrations without warheads toward fully mission-capable systems. https://lnkd.in/gEe2itxa
