Rule has a proven track record of helping startups and small companies scale by implementing successful supply chain and manufacturing processes. Most recently, he served as the Director of Manufacturing and Supply Chain for Everactive, an IoT platform company. For the last several years, Rule has also managed his own supply chain and manufacturing engineering consultancy where he has assisted small to mid-sized companies with projects ranging from international factory stand up and quality control, to new product introduction and prototype production planning.

Rule laid the groundwork for his successful career during his time at Aruba Networks, now a Hewlett Packard Enterprise company, where he worked his way up to the roles of Senior Director, Manufacturing Engineering and, later, Vice President of Global Supply Chain.
