The people behind Marling.

Rashan Hodge

Founder, CEO & CTO

Rashan spent his career in security at Palo Alto Networks and X (formerly Twitter), building systems that let a large company move fast without worrying about where its data went. He built Marling to bring that same foundation, and the shared operational brain he and Rachel built to run their own company, to the small offices that deserve an enterprise engine of their own.

He builds the engine and the product: how Marling learns a business, connects to its tools, and protects every request on the device.

Rachel Steele

Cofounder & Chief Product Officer

Rachel spent seven years in product support at Intuit Mailchimp, then moved into enterprise IT at Hermeus, running identity and endpoint under security rules set by federal contract. She helped direct the build of an internal AI platform there so the team could move faster without putting the company’s own work into a public chat window, the same job Marling now does for small offices.

How Marling looks and feels in every chair, how it fits a real workday, and what it costs are hers, shaped by a background in user experience design.
