Warren Husband
Chief Technology Officer at EdgeTheory
About
Warren Husband is the Chief Technology Officer at EdgeTheory, a narrative intelligence company that helps government and commercial organizations understand the information environment, including how narratives emerge and spread. Warren leads EdgeTheory's engineering team.
Narrative intelligence is the work of understanding the stories that shape what people believe: Where they start, how they spread, and where they're heading. With more content online than any team can read, the goal is to spot a narrative early enough for leaders in government and business to act before it takes hold.
Warren has worked in software for more than 30 years, since 1995, as an engineer, team leader, IT director, and CTO. Before joining EdgeTheory in 2018, he spent much of that time building systems for healthcare and medical labs. He enjoys working with people as much as with code and keeps the business goal in view above the technical details. Warren lives in Mississippi.
