Former Marine Colonel Tyler Zagurski joins Warrior Money to break down why veterans are increasingly essential in defense tech—and how AI is reshaping recruiting, logistics, and readiness. Tyler explains R4 Technologies' “Humans at the Helm” approach to decision intelligence, why “ROI in defense is readiness,” and how the military’s recruiting pipeline is shrinking fast. He also shares practical guidance for transitioning service members, including how to utilize SkillBridge, how to upskill into tech without falling for predatory certifications, and why “fit” matters more than chasing the highest salary.

Yahoo Finance's Warrior Money, hosted by former Congressman Patrick Murphy and veteran investor Dan Kunze, is dedicated to uplifting the financial well-being of military veterans transitioning into civilian life. Each week, an array of guests—from everyday vets to high-ranking government officials—offer insight on successfully making the leap from service to business.
