I’m Parker Kuncl
a product design executive shaping how humans and intelligent systems create together. Currently Chief Design Officer at Nimbus — formerly at Salesforce, Oracle, Uber, PayPal, and Samsung.
Currently Chief Design Officer at Nimbus, building the agentic operating system for business — and advising startups on design, product, and AI strategy fractionally.
I'm a design executive and inventor with 23+ years of experience building and leading teams across AI, robotics, and enterprise SaaS. Today, that means serving as Chief Design Officer at Nimbus, building the agentic operating system for business — adding to a body of work that's shaped products used by hundreds of millions, from the birth of Samsung Pay to next-gen AI interfaces at Salesforce and Oracle.
I’ve built and scaled design orgs, frameworks, and systems that turn emerging technology into human-centered experiences — guiding cross-functional teams across design, product, and engineering toward a shared vision.
I’m most energized at the intersection of AI, robotics, and user experience, where design helps technology feel alive, useful, and trustworthy.
I live in Seattle with my English Setter, Aspen. Outside of work, you’ll find me sailing, exploring wine regions, or building the future of autonomous flight.
