Robin Cannon is VP of Product at Knapsack, where his team builds the context layer that connects enterprise design systems to AI tools, so AI-assisted development respects organizational standards instead of ignoring them. Before Knapsack, Robin created and led design systems at IBM and J.P. Morgan, two of the largest enterprise design system implementations in the world.

At IBM, Robin watched the Watson era unfold from inside the organization: enterprises buying intelligence before building the context layer that made intelligence useful. That pattern is repeating. At Knapsack, his team is building the control plane, and deploying it in production with enterprise customers.
