Summary
Kim Kim is an experienced product design leader with 12 years shaping user experiences across Google, DoorDash, Nuro, and now Scale AI, currently serving as Interim Head of Product Design in San Francisco. She builds and scales design teams, defines strategic product direction, and coaches designers into leadership roles to deliver complex, production-grade products. Her background in Human-Computer Interaction from Carnegie Mellon and early work on ad and cloud UIs at Google ground her in both research-driven design and large-scale enterprise interfaces.

Known for combining hands-on craft with people development, she favors measurable design outcomes that align with business and engineering constraints. Outside the obvious, she brings cross-cultural tech-business fluency from a bilingual CS/IT business degree at KAIST, which helps her navigate product strategy in fast-moving AI and robotics contexts.
