Pieter Kruithof is a founder and CEO with more than two decades of expertise in user research and product management, building digital products and research programs for organizations like IBM, HPE, and Truist. He now leads FluidMemory, an EdTech startup that applies generative AI to automate low-value research tasks so graduate students and professionals can focus on critical thinking and insight generation. Pieter blends deep human-factors training (MEng) and industrial design roots with hands-on leadership of cross-functional teams, having driven JTBD initiatives, persona frameworks, and cloud-management UX across enterprise and open-source ecosystems. He’s comfortable at the intersection of strategy and execution—persuading stakeholders to pilot new research approaches and shipping tangible product improvements. Outside work he credits caring for two geriatric Great Danes with sharpening his priorities and resilience.
