About
Adam Warmoth is the founder and CEO of Chariot Defense, a 2024 startup building modular battlefield power and energy systems to replace the legacy generators and tactical vehicles the U.S. military still relies on. A Stanford-trained engineer, he led counter-UAS engineering at Anduril and then served as Head of Product at Archer Aviation, where he shaped the company's defense and aerospace partnerships. He started Chariot after seeing the gap between the power demands of modern drones, directed-energy weapons and command nodes and the diesel-era equipment that has to feed them. The company has raised $41 million across seed and Series A rounds, with Andreessen Horowitz leading the Series A.
