Biography

Andrea Hine transforms industrial operations by putting frontline workers first. She knows firsthand what it's like to make things work in the freezing Canadian oil sands with a crew of operators - without the right tools. Those experiences in the field shaped her career mission: to equip workers so they never face that struggle again. Her approach is simple but powerful: involve workers from day one in designing Connected Worker and AI solutions to build solutions that actually work. With a decade of field experience, Andrea has driven digital transformation to thousands of workers across multiple industrial sites, proving that technology deployed the right way delivers massive gains - safer work environments, stronger culture, and significant operational efficiencies. By centering frontline voices in the design process, she creates lasting change in complex industrial environments where trust and buy-in are everything. For Andrea, the path to both safety and profitability runs through the people doing the work.
