Professional Experience
Cooper Keller is the Senior Vice President of Program Management and Production Operations at Divergent Technologies. In his role, Cooper oversees all customer-focused application development across the automotive, aerospace, and defense sectors for Divergent, including operations, application engineering, supply chain, quality assurance, and production. He has dedicated nearly a decade to Divergent’s mission of revolutionizing vehicle manufacturing with the Divergent Adaptive Production System (DAPS™)—the world’s first end-to-end factory system that leverages supercomputing, AI, additive manufacturing, and advanced robotics to automatically design, manufacture, and assemble optimized vehicle structures across these industries.
As a lead inventor, Cooper has played a critical role in the development of Divergent’s technology and its successful implementation in groundbreaking innovations; including the world’s first fully 3D-printed safety-critical chassis structure for a production vehicle—the rear frame for the Aston Martin DBR22; the first fully 3D-printed aircraft fuselage in collaboration with General Atomics; and the entire chassis for the world’s fastest production car – the Czinger 21C.
Prior to his career at Divergent, Cooper led the development of many automotive, aerospace and defense products at Eaton Corporation, ranging from roots-type mechanical superchargers for high-performance engines to non-explosive actuators for satellite systems.
Cooper holds a Bachelor’s degree in Engineering from Dartmouth College and a Bachelor’s degree in Science from St. Lawrence University.
