In this episode of The Boon of Wireless, host Jon Horovitz sits down with Ahmed Khattak, founder and CEO of US Mobile, to discuss how he's been quietly building one of the most innovative wireless companies in the country since 2014.

US Mobile operates as a software-driven hybrid carrier across multiple major networks — including Starlink — with a unified app and single billing system. Khattak explains how the company earned non-exclusive multi-network access through consistent carrier commitments, enabling customers to switch networks in a few clicks or run multiple networks on one device simultaneously.

With over 1 million customers and more than $250M in revenue, Khattak credits the company's growth to an engineering-first culture, tight customer feedback loops via Reddit, and a digital-only go-to-market approach. He also details the Starlink cellular-plus-home-internet bundle and shares his vision for the future — a globally converged wireless experience across networks, regions, and devices.
