Josh Wilkins

With 27 years as a Fire Captain and a lifetime of firefighting heritage, I've dedicated my career to protecting communities from wildfires. Now, as a consultant specializing in wildfire technologies, I'm on a mission to revolutionize how we prevent, respond to, and recover from these devastating events.

In my current role as a wildfire technology consultant, I focus on:

• Enhancing situational awareness for first responders
• Improving public understanding of wildfire risks
• Guiding tech startups in developing innovative wildfire solutions
• Integrating cutting-edge technologies like satellite systems and IoT sensors

Having served as a Public Information Officer, I understand the critical need for clear, actionable information during crises. I'm passionate about democratizing real-time data and empowering communities to better understand and respond to wildfire threats.

My goal is to accelerate the capabilities of both first responders and communities in the face of increasing wildfire risks. Whether it's leveraging satellite technology, IoT sensors, or AI-driven predictive models, unmanned systems I'm committed to finding and implementing innovative solutions.

As a connector, firefighter, and father, I envision a world where we can live more safely and resiliently with wildfires. If you're working on solving these complex challenges, let's connect and explore how we can make a difference together.
