ProvenMetal (2026)
About

Johnny Doyle is Co-Founder and CEO of ProvenMetal (YC S26), a Y Combinator-backed advanced manufacturing startup assembling fast-turn printed circuit boards entirely in the United States for drone, defense, and robotics companies.

Before founding

Johnny studied Engineering with Management at Trinity College Dublin and previously built IoT building management systems, and co-founded Syncra, a building management technology venture, before pivoting to electronics manufacturing.

Founder Insights

Johnny and his co-founder Will Carkner booked flights to San Francisco an hour before their Y Combinator interview, demonstrating the conviction and bias for action that defines their founding story.

Experience

ProvenMetal automates the bottlenecks in PCB production including part procurement, DFM review, and assembly, delivering boards in days instead of weeks with no expedite fees, serving hardware and robotics teams across the US.

Scale & Impact

ProvenMetal is tackling a critical reshoring challenge: America's share of global circuit board manufacturing has fallen from roughly 30% two decades ago to just 4% today, and ProvenMetal is working to reverse that trend.
