If I can rebuild your stack in a single weekend, I'm going to remake it in Rust under the Unlicense. Zero-cloud compiled architecture. Memory-safe by default. Veteran-owned.

## Core Competencies

- Memory-safe compiled architecture (Rust) Aligned with CISA Secure-by-Design mandate, EO 14028, NIST SP 800-218.
- On-device AI inference Local LLM via custom Mixture-of-Experts. No API calls. Air-gap capable.
- DevSecOps binary optimization 48 KB to 51.5 MB release binaries with full SBOM and verifiable provenance.
- Hardware-signed AI model integrity (KNOXAI) ESP32-eFuse root of trust + 5-gate audit pipeline. Reproducible attestation.
- Federal-grade automation, ansible-tier replaced Statically-linked Rust binaries. No runtime dependencies. Drop and run.

## Past Performance & Credentials

- Title 10 Offensive Cyber Operator, ARCYBER 103rd Cyber Mission Team
- USCYBERCOM J38 JMOC-E co-dev lead, NDAA-directed offensive cyber operations study
- US Army veteran · MOS 17C Cyber Operations · JCAC Corry Station 2014
- 31 shipped Rust products · 32 crates published · 60-day production sprint

## Anti-Founder Receipts

Replaces | Engaged Time
--- | ---
runsible vs Ansible (Red Hat / IBM) | 6 hrs
r8r vs n8n (Series B, $60M raised) | 12 hrs
kova vs LangChain / agentic frameworks | ongoing
rogue-repo vs Stripe Issuing / payment-engine SaaS | weekend
exopack vs Cypress / visual-regression SaaS | weekend

Hours from git commit clusters (≤30 min = continuous, >30 min gap = new session credited at 30 min). Reproducible from public history at github.com/cochranblock.

Differentiator: Service-disabled veteran with operational ARCYBER background, building the capability he previously deployed on active duty. Capital efficient: $364 / 60-day sprint. Federal-friendly per-contract Unlicense flip on government systems with retained commercial IP.
