Summary
Charles Piercey is a product leader with 11 years of experience who blends startup grit and enterprise scale to deliver storage and infrastructure products as well as civic tech. He co-founded and led product at TidalScale—raising $32M and shipping multiple Hyper Kernel releases—and later directed product for KIOXIA’s KumoScale transformation into a data-center class storage architecture. Equally committed to public impact, he now provides pro-bono product leadership for governments and nonprofits at U.S. Digital Response while advising climate action initiatives. A former Nokia and Business Objects product executive, he has a track record of turning technical innovation into commercial growth, holding multiple patents and launching the first mobile BI app that seeded large revenue streams.
